@hermantol I dislike the use of the phrase “soft skills” it does not reflect the importance of the things placed under this label. Knowledge is never a soft skill it is more like “software”, essential to be an effective clinician.

Tom Jesson Tina We are too reliant on “popularism” and “Gurus” we jump on bandwagons like jackdaws to a shiny object. Learn to understand humans and their complexity after 35 years in practice I’m just scratching the surface. Learn the principles not the tricks. PT trends 👇👇👇👇

This is a thread 🧵 that supports my presentation at the 2024 TRIA Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation Conference on Saturday, October 26, 2024 , it has all the references used.

Evidence based medicine, studies up the wazoo, but clinicians still want to learn hands on and dry needling. Nothing will ever change. Everyone is searching for the secret technique, because clinical practice is tough. Screw courses on clinical reasoning and listening 😂 😂

42 years and leaving clinical practice, nothing has changed 😂 Humans 🤷🏼

Round and round and round we go………

Still this 👇

If you have ever had a kidney stone, how did you feel? I bet you just felt like dancing? 😂 😂 😂 💃🏿

My letter still hasn’t been published 😂 😂 lost in the ether 🤷🏼

On days like today, with news of death of a clinician, & feedback form a course over a year ago about learning, I ponder if 42 years of treating & teaching has been a drain circling waste of time? Then I remember it’s about “star fish” & making a difference in someone’s life.

Are we just circling the drain? 👇

Nope, you don’t know the best six exercise to fix XYZ. Nope you haven’t found the best way to release fascia and negative emotions. Nope your stupid exercise isn’t essential for “opening my hips. You are spouting bull 💩 for clicks and likes. Now go away off my time line.

Nick Southorn Damian Thacker Neil Maltby It's time for this new course it will solve all these issues. Until we stop PTs being attracted to the latest fads like jackdaws status quo

@nferrara1002 Great blog Nick as always. PTs are like Jackdaws attracted to shinny objects and fads. Time to stop the Bull 💩 “contextual effects” alone do not validate a treatment.
