Spinal Decompression is BS - It’s traction, traction doesn’t work, exercise is the only thing you need, if you’re any good you can do everything with your hands, it’s expensive, it’s about making money, there’s no evidence, too many treatments …
You might be right if this is what you think. But what if you're not? In this episode Osteopath Rob Shanks shares his experiences.
How he had exactly the same thoughts but after ten years working with his hands, observed that with some disc patients outcomes were hit and miss.
It's this frustration coupled with an inquisitive mind that led Rob into the murky world of … TRAAAACTTIONNNN
And from there an itch of curiosity led him to check out
this thing called IDD Therapy Spinal Decompression.
Rob has got really quite good at working with spines and
here we dive into all things manual therapy, traction and spinal decompression.
Rob is a director of Spine Plus Clinics in Essex, UK and has two IDD Therapy systems. He also provides training for MSK practitioners in spinal MRI interpretation. Rob talks about this in the podcast.
