🛑 Physiotherapists are breaking down. Workload pressures, lack of autonomy, and emotional strain are fueling a burnout crisis in UK physiotherapy. If we don’t prioritise support structures, we risk losing valuable professionals. What can we do to change this?

Always an honour to be invited to share my career #womeninsport & equally importantly my research into #neckstrength with the next generation of physios. Encouraging criticality, the use of evidence informed practice & how to value robust practice vs unreliable guessing!

This shows commitment to the key message about concussion in sport - and remember that we are almost always “in doubt” - so sit them out to save their lives and protect their futures - no sport is worth the ultimate risk! Well done Scotland!
