STA196 ‘Treating The Shoulder: Steps To Success’ with special guest Jo Gibson

In Ep.196, Part 2 of our special Shoulder Series, our guest is Jo Gibson, a hugely respected shoulder specialist & educator both nationally & internationally, and upper limb rehab specialist at Rehab 4 Performance The show focuses on inclusive patient-centric healthcare, encouraging practicioners to use thorough subjective assessment to form a hypothesis, rather than rushing into the objective testing.  Jo discusses different classes of shoulder conditions, the importance of clear communication, and strategies for diagnosis. Discover the role of reactive stabilization and neuromuscular elements in treating instabilities, along with the correlation between injury and re-injury. The podcast offers a comprehensive outlook on shoulder cases like impingement and instability. Detailed discussions about the practice of patient-centric listening to guide rehabilitation strategies are provided. A significant highlight of the episode is the exploration of a potential missing link in the recovery process – the critical aspect of neural control, referred to as the 'Control Chaos Continuum' (Taberner et al. 2019) The episode goes on to provide a better understanding of frozen shoulders, the role hormones play in shoulder pain, particularly in menopausal women. Filled with practical resources, Jo also provides details of her up & coming ‘Treating The Shoulder: Steps To Success’ courses, both online & face-to-face.  Useful Links Details of Jo Gibson courses: https://www.vitalpm.com/ Rehab 4 Performance website: https://rehab4performance.com/ Jo Gibson on Twitter: @ShoulderGeek1 Rehab 4 Performance on Instagram: @r4p_uk Rehab 4 Performance on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/R4PUK Sports Therapy Association on Facebook Sports Therapy Association on Instagram Sports Therapy Association on Twitter Sports Therapy Association Website Want to join the live recordings?
