Case #79 - Joel Laing
Case #79 - Joel Laing
In case #79 I'm joined by Mr. Joel Laing of Melbourne, Australia. Joel shares a patient he saw who presented with scapula and shoulder pain. He shares details of his clinical thoughts process as he conducted the history, the physical exam and through the repeated movement exam. He shares some minor changes made with loading strategies that made all the difference with reduction of pain and recovery of motion. Some great insights of how to react when significant improvements are achieved but minor increases in status are reported by the patient. (1hr 19min 40 sec)
Joel shares a number of great points including:
one simple behavior which helps to identify whether two symptom locations are linked to each other and coming from the same source or not
systematically working through subgroups within the OTHER classifcation
a fundamental question to establish a meaningful baseline to the patient, and
a resource which is right under your nose which you can use to help with patient education
