In this story, Erson recounts trying it "his way" with a hamstring strain on an otherwise healthy young athlete. After getting little results with increase in function after light soft tissue work for a few weeks, his intern politely asked for a change on the patient's behalf.

Normally, a patient sees their primary, primary refers to specialist, and specialist orders a plethora of scans/testing that leads to fear avoidance. The combination of this, patient experience, their support system, maladaptive beliefs, and good ol' Dr. Google usually lead to worse outcomes than if the patient did not receive the scans. Listen in to this pair of stories where Erson sees a few patients where the scans actually caused placebo instead of nocebo.

A rare win for show host Andrew. A patient after shoulder trauma and other ecosystem stressors developed arm and hand thoracic outlet like complaints. After trying several other conventional and unconventional treatments, he settles on mindfulness.

Listen to a recent case of a severe bilateral chronic ankle sprain Erson worked with. 4 months of rehab prior to a big meet to qualify for a state competition. What happened and what was learned from this case?

Dr. Brett Scott is back on the podcast. Fully licensed (listen to the last episode). He shares an interesting case of an athlete at his gym who is having some unusual symptoms and is known to "work out a bit too hard."

Listen in as Dr. Brett Scott, PT, DPT details his difficulty getting licensed.  A misunderstanding and misinterpretation of information listed on his website prior to his licensure caused some initial career headaches. A great lesson and piece of advice for new grad and student PTs who are on social media
