    Ep 265: Helping girls rule the rugby world, with Dr Isla Shill

    Rugby is seeing consistent growth in popularity and participation. It's also no secret that women's sport is also growing rapidly. Put those together and you enter the exciting and rapidly developing area of women's and girl's rugby. Today, Dr Isla Shill (University of Victoria) discusses her research work in preventing injuries (including concussion) in girl's rugby. She shares the key components, and what it takes to implement an effective injury prevention program. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Effects of neuromuscular training warm-up for preventing injury and concussion in girl's rugby: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2026.13373 SHRED injuries neuromuscular training warm-up programs: https://www.ucalgary.ca/shred-injuries Tips for supporting athletes to return to sport after concussion, with Dr Kathryn Schneider: https://pod.link/1522929437/episode/YTA0ZWY0NDgtYzNmZi00ODlmLTg5ZWQtMTAyMDE3ZTUxNjhk Female, woman, and/or girl Athlete Injury pRevention: https://fairconsensus.com/ FAIR practical recommendations: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41330629/

    Ep 264: Treat the person, not the scan! With Dr Thomas Ibounig

    Today’s guest—Dr Thomas Ibounig—who led the paper, “Rotator Cuff Imaging Abnormalities in Asymptomatic Shoulders: A systematic review” explores how prevalent abnormal MRI findings are in asymptomatic shoulders, and how the prevalence changes by population. The systematic review is an exemplar of what musculoskeletal rehabilitation clinicians can learn from accepting what we don’t know! Chelsea and Marquis wrap up the chat by thinking about how physical therapists can take the systematic review findings into account when educating and referring patients with shoulder pain. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Rotator cuff imaging abnormalities in asymptomatic shoulders systematic review: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.13611 More on the SCRUTINY (Systematic Review of Shoulder Imaging Abnormalities in Asymptomatic Adults) project: https://www.ficebo.com/project/scrutiny

    Ep 263: Psychologically-informed care for tendinopathy, with Jack Mest

    Psychological factors can be prominent for people with tendinopathy–so how do you pick up on them? How might psychological factors guide your plan of care? Today, physiotherapist Jack Mest (University of Canberra), is your guide to understanding how best to screen for important psychological factors, and how to address them in the clinic. Jack Mest is a PhD candidate, studying psychological factors associated with persistent tendinopathy and psychologically informed approaches in Achilles tendinopathy rehabilitation. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Psychological factors in people with and without persistent tendinopathy: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.13307 Scoping review of psychological factors in tendinopathy: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2022.11005 JOSPT Insights ep 255: what if clinicians trusted people in pain?

    Ep 262: Digital rehabilitation - the future is now! With Dr Bruno Saragiotto

    The Covid pandemic was an inflection point for many aspects of health care, including turbocharging uptake of virtual models of care. Telerehabilitation was around before Covid, of course, but the past few years has seen it in a far more prominent place in health care systems. There's also increasing research evaluating different telerehabilitation interventions. Dr Bruno Saragiotto (University of Technology Sydney) studies telehealth for chronic pain conditions, artificial intelligence and implementing digital solutions in health care. Today he joins JOSPT Insights to discuss the present and future of technology for improving outcomes in musculoskeletal rehabilitation. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Internet-based self-management for chronic pain (ReabilitaDOR Trial): https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.13418 Effectiveness of activity trackers and smartphone apps for increasing physical activity: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2026.13825 Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro): https://pedro.org.au/

    Ep 261: Rolling with resistance - learning CFT, with Dr JP Caneiro

    In episode 258, Drs Ruth Chang and JP Caneiro explain the results of trials testing cognitive functional therapy (CFT). They explored what CFT is and how it might help people in pain. In today's episode, Dr Caneiro (Curtin University; Evoolve Pain Care Academy) joins the JOSPT Insights community again to explain what is involved in learning the patient-centred CFT approach. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Evoolve Pain Care Academy: https://evoolvepaincare.academy/ Videos, infographics and written resources for clinicians: https://evoolvepaincare.academy/clinician-resources

    Ep 260: Precision physical therapy, with Dr Trevor Lentz

    All clinicians know the challenge and opportunity that comes with tailoring clinical decisions to the person in front of you. While it's helpful to have clinical practice guidelines to give you a starting point and to reduce unwarranted variation in practice, of course every patient is different! Today, Dr Trevor Lentz (Duke University) explains the concept of clinical phenotyping, which is another way of identifying patterns in your clinical practice, and guiding your clinical decisions. Clinical phenotyping has been suggested as a way of tailoring musculoskeletal care in practice, although its implementation in practice has been patchy - Dr Lentz explains some of the reasons why. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Psychological phenotyping in osteoarthritis: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptopen.2025.0177 OSPRO yellow flags tool: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2016.6487 Clinical framework for screening yellow flags: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2021.10570 STarT MSK research programme review: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37490570/

    Ep 259: CFT is a mindset (part 2), with Drs Ruth Chang & JP Caneiro

    Last week we explored how people with pain move. Drs Ruth Chang and JP Caneiro explained cognitive functional therapy, or CFT, as an approach to helping people in pain explore their beliefs with curiosity. Today, we take the discussion further, exploring what CFT could do for your practice. Dr Chang is a postdoctoral research fellow at Curtin University in Perth, Australia, and a specialist musculoskeletal physiotherapist. Dr Caneiro is a specialist physiotherapist, Adjunct Senior Clinical Researcher at Curtin University, and Director and Educator at Evoolve Pain Care Academy. ------------------------------ RESOURCES RESTORE trial: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37146623/ Patterns of change in forward bending, and pain self-efficacy during CFT: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.13114 Relationship between forward bending and improvement in pain and disability during CFT: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2024.12727 Network meta-analysis of tailored exercise therapies with or without psychological interventions: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.13281
