Welcome to Season 3, in which I'll be travelling around Europe to interview a variety of guests in person throughout 2023!

Carl-Johan (CJ) is a Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience of Aging across Sweden and Denmark, and has done a lot of research on the benefits of exercise for brain health, with an emphasis on its benefits for older individuals. He also has a TED talk on the topic! (see below for the link). CJ is super knowledgable in this area and it was a pleasure to speak with him about this topic. 

We talk about how exercise can impact dementia, how much and what type of exercise is recommended to improve brain health, how we can create longterm behaviour change and much more. 

This episode was recorded live in the Panum building of the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. I hope you enjoy!

Welcome to Season 3, in which I'll be travelling around Europe to interview a variety of guests in person throughout 2023!

This is such an interesting topic, and one that I knew next to nothing about before speaking to John and Alex. It really challenged a lot of previously held assumptions that I had, and I'm sure you'll have a similar experience. 

John's background is a GP,  whilst Alex is an anthropologist. They conduct research together, and it was amazing to get their different perspectives on each question due to their different clinical backgrounds. John and Alex will be keynote speakers at the "Preventing Overdiagnosis 2023 International Conference", which I'm hopeful i will be able to attend! 

We speak about what overdiagnosis is, practical examples, why it is harmful to our patients, how physios can avoid overdiagnosis and deliver high quality care, and much more. 

This episode was recorded live in John's office in Copenhagen, Denmark. I hope you enjoy!

So exciting to announce that Season 3 is finally here! ICYMI, I'm currently travelling around Europe and will be interviewing a variety of European guests in person across the rest of the year! 

I'm very excited to bring you an interview with the one and only Physiotutors as the first episode of Season 3!

I hope you enjoy!

Bit of a different episode this week as I am the guest! I was interviewed by my good friend, Em McIver, about my experience so far treating people with mental health conditions or psychological distress. This is a really interesting area for me so I was thrilled to chat with her about the topic. 

We speak about the importance of listening and not rushing to say anything or give advice, how it is more prevalent than we realise, practical tips and much more. 

2 weeks until Season 3 is launched which is super exciting !

Today I got to speak to Nick Cross all about the Posterior Heel. I attended one of Nick's PD events at Melbourne CBD Physio which was awesome, and so had to get him on to talk about it ! 

Nick is a clinician and researcher in Melbourne with a keen interest in foot and ankle pain. He works as a physio for Athletics Australia and has a wealth of experience in this area. 

We speak about key subjective info to gather, the importance of looking further up the chain, and how to tailor your rehab to the person in front of you. I hope you enjoy! 

This was originally recorded in mid 2022 and so the references to upcoming PD events ran by Nick and the team may no longer be relevant, but be sure to check out their website for future PD events!
