This is why with patients we need to go into more detail about their job role. Conversation often might go; 'What do you do for a job' 'Firefighter' 'That's interesting' (move on) We sometimes assume we have an understanding of what that might entail. Big rehab implications!

In vitro models of disc pathology tell us that a disc has a finite tolerance. But, what the in vivo models tell us is that the disc can adapt and recover. We have the ability through cyclic loading to improve tolerance as we do anywhere else in the body #LoadIsGood

In the office early and hanging my coat up casually above a nice framed object. ‘What’s that?’ I asked the brilliant facilities and ops manager @1JohnCat … ‘Oh that’s just our actual royal charter’ #History #Legacy #StandingOnShoulders

Give a patient one thing to do well between appointments. Don’t overload them, much less chance they will do anything at all! Let’s give them at least an 85% chance 👍👌💪
