Hands On Hands Off: Manual Therapy & Orthopedic Physical Therapy (AAOMPT) Research - Chimenti and Post Interview
Dr. Ruth Chimenti (e-mail, ResearchGate, Google Scholar) and Dr. Andrew Post (e-mail, ResearchGate) of the University of Iowa and are interviewed by Dhinu Jayaseelan regarding a publication from Pain titled, “The effects of pain science education plus exercise on pain and function in chronic Achilles tendinopathy: a blinded, placebo-controlled, explanatory, randomized trial.” This episode contains information that will be interesting for practitioners who want to explore the role of educational approaches that emphasize the pathoanatomy of Achilles tendinopathy (AT) versus a biopsychosocial approach to reframing pain for individuals with AT when added to a tendon loading exercise program.
