The Only Shoulder Special Test You Need To Use
from The New Grad Physio Podcast · host Andy Barker
I only use one special test at the shoulder. It is one of the most simple tests you can do at the shoulder... But it gives me valuable information as to the best way to manage my patient. Too many physio's, from new grad's to experienced therapists, overcomplicate their shoulder assessments. You think the shoulder is complicated... But that does not mean your shoulder assessment needs to be complicated too! Quite the opposite in fact. The more simpler you can make your shoulder patient assessment, the more clarity you will gain on how to best manage your patients problem. Learn which test I use with each and every shoulder pain patient I see... And why some of the other special tests, that I guarantee you are using with your own shoulder pain patients, are a complete waste of time! Enjoy the show! Andy Barker The New Grad Physio Mentor PS.
