    167. Bones, them strong bones: How to use bone loading programs. Physio Edge Running repairs podcast with Tom Goom
    Nov 29 2024
    Bone strength and density are vital in your running and sporting patients who can experience bone stress injuries (BSI’s), and also as patients get older and more vulnerable to falls and fractures. How can you improve bone strength in patients following a bone stress injury such as Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome or stress fractures, or in other patients that you’d like to improve bone density or strength? Traditional approaches to strength and conditioning may not always address the needs of your patients recovering from bone stress injuries. That’s where bone loading programs come in—a targeted strategy to help prepare bones for impact, improve power, and support a return to sport. In this episode, Tom Goom (Running Physio) dives into the research and how to use a bone loading program to stimulate bone adaptation. In this podcast, you’ll discover: The theory and evidence behind bone loading programs and how bones respond to impact.How to identify the right stage of injury recovery for introducing impact training.Practical guidelines for implementing short, progressive bone loading exercises.Techniques for progressing exercises based on patient goals and symptoms.Strategies to improve bone strength in patients experiencing other musculoskeletal issues such as Achilles tendinopathy.Real-world applications and demonstrations of bone loading programs. Tom also shares insights on identifying readiness for impact exercises, managing patient expectations, and adjusting programs for individual needs. You’ll leave this episode equipped with actionable strategies to help patients safely and effectively return to sport while supporting their bone health. If you’re a clinician or physiotherapist looking for practical solutions to manage bone stress injuries or improve bone density, this podcast is packed with valuable information you can apply in your practice right away. 🔗 Free Webinar Alert!

    166. To tape or not to tape? Physio Edge Shoulder Success podcast with Jo Gibson
    Nov 20 2024
    Taping: does it really help patients with shoulder pain, or is it just a brightly coloured placebo? In this thought-provoking episode of the Physio Edge Shoulder Success Podcast, Jo Gibson, upper limb rehab specialist at Rehab for Performance, unpacks the complexities of taping in shoulder rehabilitation. Drawing from the latest evidence and her extensive experience with shoulder pain, Jo shares two compelling case studies and whether taping was useful in the treatment of: Volleyball player post-stabilisation surgery – Despite passing all return-to-play criteria, this patient struggled with fear of re-injury in specific positions.C/Sp referred shoulder pain – Severe neck and shoulder pain with difficulty sleeping left this patient guarding every movement. Learn whether taping played a role in this patient’s rehab. Jo examines the evidence behind taping, addressing key questions: Does tape improve biomechanics, or are the effects purely psychological?How do sensory input and contextual factors influence patient outcomes?Can taping be a useful temporary tool, or is it overrated? You’ll also gain insights into: The importance of clinical reasoning when choosing adjuncts like taping.How to manage patient beliefs and expectations around interventions.Practical applications of taping to improve confidence and support movement strategies. With a blend of evidence, clinical expertise, and practical examples, this episode offers a balanced view on the role of taping in physiotherapy. Whether you’re a seasoned clinician or early in your career, you’ll come away with fresh perspectives on using taping effectively in your practice. 🎧 Tune in now to discover when, why, and how to use taping to support your patients’ shoulder rehab success!
