Today is World Homeopathy Day. In its honor, let’s remember that time The Amazing James Randi overdosed on homeopathy and lived to tell about it.

In your 20s, setbacks are speed bumps. In your 50s and beyond, they can feel like cliffs. An injury in midlife doesn’t just slow you down, it can derail your routine, drain your confidence, and take months to bounce back from. I've been there... far too often. Not because

When average cohort size is only 72 participants, they are labelled with non-specific neck pain, and 4 different interventions are compared, the conclusion is no surprise. We can’t draw conclusions from low quality reviews.

We used to think osteoarthritis was ā€œwear and tear.ā€ But it turns out it’s more than mechanics. Much more than mechanics. It's genetic. It’s metabolism. It’s inflammation. It’s systemic. Your joints don’t break down from movement. Our joints break down more from not

What’s the difference between using a play-based vs. traditional skill-and-drill approach? Here’s what a study on youth basketball players found:

When my daughter was 13 she designed, built, launched + retrieved a near-space cube satellite. She programmed the internal camera to capture this pic at around 100,000 ft. So forgive me if I’m not at all impressed with Katy Perry’s 11-minute-makeup-perfecting-selfie-op space

In the area of pain, clinical practice is (more than we like to admit) a process of trial and error, of tinkering. Be guided by evidence, not constrained by it.

An example of being led by the evidence - but not constrained by it: Taping for patellofemoral pain. The research on it? Honestly, pretty 🫤leading many to argue it's a waste of time. But clinicians experienced with PFJ patients know many patients feel dramatic symptom relief

Somehow in a world full of recycled ideas, #MSKMag (from Jack Chew and the Physio Matters team) is actually publishing something worth reading. An industry mag that feels alive. And they even let me chip in! šŸ‘‡

A patient with 6/12 of LBP is given a sheet of 12 exercises to perform 3 times daily. Many of them hurt. 🫩 They return 6 weeks later feeling a little worse. They’re told ā€˜physio’/ā€˜rehab’ hasn’t worked, and are offered injections. šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø So many patients are let down by a broken

The greatest threat to your joints isn’t movement—it’s stillness. Cartilage needs load. Muscles need tension. Bones need impact. I’ve seen what happens when people stop. Pain increases. Confidence fades. Recovery becomes harder. Your world becomes smaller. Motion isn’t just

Listen to patients with the aim of understanding them, not with the intent to reply….it takes longer than 11 seconds. šŸ‘‡ Let them speak without interruption. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC68…

Excited to join a fantastic association of clinicians and businesses dedicated to raising quality and standards of MSK care. šŸ‘‡ In a time of tight budgets, demonstrating the value of good quality care is more important than ever.
