The New Grad Physio Podcast

You have seen it all over instagram but what is all this rib-cage stuff about?

I'll be honest I was a bit skeptical at first...

Until I started to use this stuff and see how quickly it could change patient symptoms...

And keep them away!

Is use it a lot with patients with lower back pain...

But it has also been a game-changer for patients with pubic overload, hip impingement and especially with overload injuries like anterior knee pain, patella and achilles tendon issues and those patients and athletes that struggle with recurrent hamstring and calf tears. 

This is something you need to know and you can find out more in this week's podcast episode.

Enjoy the show!

Poor communication can completely undo all your hard work you have done with your patient.

Even if you nail your diagnosis...

And in your head you how exactly what your patient's treatment plan is going to look like...

If you cannot get this information across to your patient then this does not matter and it can be a recipe for disaster.

If your patient does not have a good understanding of their problem and how your rehab programme is going to them from A to B...

From injury and back to full health...

Then patient's will lack faith in you and what you are saying.

Listen to this week's podcast episode to learn how to get this information easily across to your patient so they understand what is going on and have trust in what you are saying...

And make sure that you avoid the biggest communication mistake that new grad physio's make that causes poor patient understanding, confidence in you as your therapist and poor patient adherence.

You know how important your red flag questions are...

There is so much mixed evidence out there regrading red flags and how to manage patients reporting these 'sinister' symptoms...

It can feel overwhelming and confusing about what to do next? 

Do you refer on...

Or do you acknowledge the symptoms, document your findings and start treating and rehabbing your patient?

This can feel like a big decision and it is, and is one decision you do not want to get wrong.

Here's some advice to help you make sense of red flag symptoms and give you the clarity you need to better manage patients such symptoms in this week's episode of the New Grad Physio podcast.

You want to be the best physio you can be, right?

And you know that keeping on top of your learning via CPD is pivotal to help you do this…

To stay up to date with the evidence…

And sharpen your skills to better assess, treat and rehab the patients you work with.

But to be able to do this, you need to make sure that the time and effort you put into your learning, actually helps.

You can read as many journals, watch as many videos or attend online or in-person training courses to tick the CPD box…

Just in case you get audited by the HCPC or another regulatory body…

And fill a folder full of certificates.

But isn’t the real reason you want to learn, to help you to become a better physio?

What would you rather have...

A diary full of happy progressing patients or a folder bursting with shiny CPD certificates?

Listen to this special podcast to learn how to get the most out of your CPD...

And to make sure that any learning you do in 2023, is worth your time, effort and money!

Enjoy the show!

I’d like to think I have ended the year as a better physio than when I started 2022, as we all did, right?

I have had some great experiences this year in both sport and private practice...

And whilst there have been some relative successes...

There have been equally as many mistakes and new learnings that I hope will make me better at what I do.

So for the last podcast of the year, what better way to share some of this with you!

Not every shoulder pain patient needs rotator cuff exercises!

You already know this right, because you have no doubt seen patients where these type of exercises did not help.

They might have even flared up your patients symptoms!
