Welcome to another episode of Physio Foundations, a podcast about the knowledge and skills that provide the foundation of expert physiotherapy or clinical practice.
This week's episode is part 2 of my discussion with physiotherapist, tendon expert and researcher Associate Professor Peter Malliaras from Monash University. In part 2 of our discussion Peter builds on the foundations we laid in part 1. We talk about how you can be critical of your own practice and still maintain your confidence. We then talk about applying tendinopathy research and key resources in tendinopathy for you to know about.
In this episode:
0:00 The worst thing you can do is to be too confident
3:45 Exercise is not a panacea for tendinopathy, it doesn't work for everyone
5:00 Trying using the words 'may', 'can I suggest' and 'let's see'
5:15 Be careful criticising other clinicians. You weren't there!
6:55 As an expert, what do you do differently as a clinician?
7:55 Once you have been critical of your practice, you can commit and be confident
10:00 What's new in tendinopathy research?
12:10 Bring energy into your practice
13:35 Key resources in tendinopathy to know about
15:35 Summary and what's next
