New paper on categorizing mechanisms. A notable step toward understanding whether mechanisms research is applicable to clinical practice. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Very important paper from some of the leading manual therapy research scientists. Just out in JOSPT. jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jo…

CONVERGE speaker: This presentation addresses the intricacies of patient safety and adverse events of SMT from an innovative approach merging clinical and basic sciences - It will deepen your understanding of manipulative therapy forces and how it relates to safety!

CONVERGE speaker: This presentation explores mechanisms of manual therapy and their role in patient outcomes. It emphasizes mechanistic research, clinical trials, and the importance of understanding what drives patient outcomes to inform personalized and effective care.

CONVERGE Plenary will explore mechanisms of SMT which can clarify when and why therapeutic techniques are effective. But what are mechanisms and how does one find them? The plenary will share insights from recent philosophical research on mechanisms in the life sciences.
