In this podcast episode, Dr. Leanne Bisset, a musculoskeletal physiotherapist and associate professor at Griffith University, shares valuable insights on lateral epicondylalgia, also known as lateral elbow tendinopathy. She discusses the anatomy and function of the affected muscles, highlighting the importance of stability in wrist movements and the role of the extensor carpi radialis brevis. Dr. Bisset emphasizes the shift in terminology from epicondylitis to tendinopathy, debunking misconceptions around inflammation in the condition and providing a comprehensive overview of diagnostic considerations, risk factors, and red flags to look for during assessment.
Furthermore, Dr. Bisset delves into the management of lateral elbow tendinopathy, emphasizing the significance of tailored exercise programs focusing on isometric loading initially, progressing to incorporate global upper limb strengthening for comprehensive rehabilitation. She also addresses the limited efficacy of modalities like shockwave therapy and the potential benefits of orthoses in pain management. Dr. Bisset's evidence-based approach underscores the importance of patient education, individualized treatment plans, and monitoring pain responses to optimize outcomes in the management of lateral epicondylalgia.

In this podcast episode, Barbara Cagnie, a physiotherapist and manual therapist, discusses the topic of dry needling, providing valuable insights into its definition, physiological effects, and clinical applications. Dry needling is described as a technique used by physiotherapists to treat myofascial pain, with the insertion of thin filiform needles into specific trigger points aiming to reduce pain and restore muscle function. Barbara highlights the physiological basis of dry needling, emphasizing its effects on peripheral and central systems, as well as its potential impact on pain and inflammation.
The discussion delves into the differences between active and latent trigger points, reliability in identifying trigger points, and the mechanism of referred pain. Barbara also addresses the evidence supporting the efficacy of dry needling in various musculoskeletal disorders, particularly in neck pain, highlighting the need for ongoing research to further explore its clinical applications.
The conversation touches on the contraindications and potential risks of dry needling, emphasizing the importance of proper training and anatomical knowledge to minimize adverse events. The future of dry needling is also considered, with mentions of ultrasound-guided and electrical dry needling techniques.
Barbara's expertise and comprehensive explanations serve to demystify dry needling and shed light on its clinical relevance. Her insights not only provide valuable information for physiotherapists but also instill curiosity about the potential of this technique in optimizing patient care.

In this Physiotutors podcast episode, Canadian researcher Yannick Tousignant-Laflamme introduces the Pain and Disability Drivers Management Model, a groundbreaking approach to understanding and managing chronic musculoskeletal pain, particularly low back pain. This model identifies five key domains across three dimensions, going beyond biomechanics to reveal the root causes of pain and disability. It underscores the significance of interdisciplinary collaboration and effective communication among healthcare professionals.
By integrating classification systems and prognostic tools, this model optimizes its effectiveness. Classification systems pinpoint patient subgroups, while prognostic tools screen for psychological factors affecting pain outcomes. Clinicians are encouraged to utilize these tools for screening, delving deeper for medium or high-risk patients. The incorporation of questionnaires and patient-reported outcome measures informs evidence-based decision-making. The ultimate aim? Personalized, evidence-based care for musculoskeletal conditions, addressing both physical and psychosocial factors.
Curious to learn more about this innovative approach? Tune in to the full episode for a comprehensive exploration.

In this podcast, we explore scapular dyskinesis, the abnormal movement of the shoulder blade. We discuss related terms like scapular misalignment and sick scapula, questioning the practicality of assessing it through visual observation. We highlight that identifying it as normal or abnormal may not guide treatment decisions or pinpoint the cause of shoulder pain. We also address its prevalence in athletes and non-athletes and suggest using various tests to assess scapular dyskinesis. Intriguingly, we'll reveal a surprising connection between scapular dyskinesis and an unexpected aspect of training, which might change the way you think about shoulder issues. So, join us for the full episode to uncover this fascinating insight.

Research and evidence based practise are the cornerstone of the modern clinician - ensuring that we use the best, up to date methods to support our clients and patients. With that said however, there's so much out there, how can you be sure what you're reading is worthwhile, is relevant or of any half decent quality. We have to understand the limitations of the research we're reading to understand the implications and potential application of that research too. It's unfortunate, but when working with people - whatever your discipline - there's no one size fits all approach and there's always nuance. With that said, myself and James spoke about why we need to dig further than *just* the abstract before we make up our minds on a research paper, to fully gage whether it is of clinical or statistical significance! We discuss what are some of the things you should look out for when reading and discerning research as well as some of the wider elements of research to better understand that world.

I speak with the amazing Dr Melissa Farmer, Clinical Psychologist, Neuroscientist, researcher, CCO & co founder of Aivo Health! Melissa and I talk about chronic pain and the influence that has on both the brain & body as well as what we can do in clinic to both utilise these changes as well as how we can manage our patients with chronic pain with our approach to help them both feel seen and heard. We discuss her approach as to how she applies her research in clinic and what the importance is of getting research into clinics quicker rather than how it now trickles down! We touch on a lot of different topics throughout the hour, tune in and find out!
