Ep. 144 - Re-airing Ep 27- Lumbopelvic Spine Diagnosis with Dr. Mark Laslett

💭” We proved you are able to diagnose sacroiliac joint pain. The spine surgery community didn't want that, and the PT community didn't want to give up their palpation diagnosis.” -  Dr. Mark Laslett. Our guest Dr Mark Laslett, PhD, NZRPS, Dip.MT, Dip.MDT is a New Zealand Board Registered Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy Specialist (NZRPS). He was in continuous musculoskeletal clinical practice 1971-April 2024. He is now retired from clinical practice after 53 years of fullt time practice but continues involvement in research & post graduate teaching. He completed doctoral studies at Linköping University, Sweden (2005), based on diagnostic accuracy research with chronic low back patients undergoing interventional spinal diagnostic procedures with the late Dr Charles Aprill MD in New Orleans.  Mark has taught short courses internationally since 1985. Between 1985 and 1998 this was as a senior international instructor for the McKenzie Institute International. He commenced teaching his own upper and lower limb courses internationally in 1993 until 2004. Since then, his teaching has focused on the lumbar spine, pelvis and hip, as well as the general principles of the science of diagnostics.
