In The RACK Podcast

Have you ever gone to the internet to look for exercises to prescribe for your patients❓

Have you treated somebody who has come into the clinic and already has a self prescribed home program they got from YouTube❓

YouTube can be an excellent resource for exercises and information. However, is it appropriate for everyone❓

Are the exercises addressing the impairments❓

These are the questions that get answered in today’s episode where Dr. Chad is a guest on the Hand to Shoulder Podcast.

Host, Steve Huft sits down with both Chad guests Andrew Walquist and Chad Burnham, as they discuss the most common exercises seen on YouTube for shoulder pain.

They give their thoughts on these exercises and suggestions as to what they might do or change.

In this Episode Chad and Nick get a little reckless In The RACK!!

Nick talks about a patient that had pain in both calves and was (mis)diagnosed with bilateral compartment syndrome! Fortunately, his provider referred him to physical therapy with us where he was well taken care of...But if this sounds like you then give this episode a listen. 

Chad focuses his story on himself and his healthcare journey in the medical system over the last couple years. If you feel that the healthcare system has failed you then listen to what Chad did to advocate for his own health. If this sounds like you...Then you are not alone!

These stories are not only crazy, but they are reckless!

It's reckless as a provider to be telling patients this type of harmful information!

So...if you are a healthcare provider and are listening to this episode we just ask that you don’t be reckless with other people's health.

Now for all of you patients that are listening…you shouldn’t put up with people who are reckless with yours!

Make sure to listen to the end of the episode to find out who we have as a guest on next week's episode.
