Is it the spine or the extremity with Richard Rosedale and Brian Sørensen

Brian Sørensen

In this episode I´m once again joined by the Canadian physiotherapist Richard Rosedale.

We talk about differentiation between extremity pain being of spinal source or "true" extremity source.

In short we provide you with practical clinical tips and pearls

We dig into a few studies that Richard has been involved with on the topic and which actually now can provide the clinician with some evidence to guide their interaction with clients. 
This data is not only recent it is also the only of its kind. So instead of relying on assumptions you can actually start to let data guide you on this matter.

We look at these studies;
A study exploring the prevalence of Extremity Pain of Spinal Source (EXPOSS). https://www-tandfonline-com.ez-scv.statsbiblioteket.dk/doi/pdf/10.1080/10669817.2019.1661706?needAccess=true

Exploring indicators of extremity pain of spinal
 source as identified by Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT).

Thanks to Richard for expanding on findings and providing clinical tips and pearls
