My mistakes in manual therapy To young clinicians in sports medicine; the biggest mistake I have made was associating pain and discomfort induced with manual therapy success. As with anything else, there are times and need for ‘discomfort’ while flushing techniques and relaxation techniques also are important within manual therapy. 🔑 you can always add pressure/force into tissue later…but you can’t take that force back and athletes may not be willing to work with you if you only function at one level. #athletictraining #athletictherapy #athleticperformance #athleticmedicine #strengthandconditioning #sportsperformance #sportsmedicine #sportschiropractic #basketball #basketballperformance #Sportsscience

Overall, sports medicine plays a vital role in keeping athletes in peak condition by providing comprehensive care that addresses the full spectrum of their physical, mental, and emotional needs. Through a combination of advanced medical techniques, evidence-based practices, and personalized care, sports medicine helps athletes achieve their performance goals while minimizing the risk of injury and maximizing their long-term health and well-being.

Joint manipulation in sports medicine 🏀 While I am not a big proponent of joint manipulation as a modality, there is certainly a place for it within sports medicine. One of the things I learned from Dan McClure was the concept of ‘small bones’. This concept applies to the hands and feet where many bones and joints must move without restriction for optimal function. In basketball, I have seen primarily lack of medial rotation of the cuboid which may lead to arch pain due to the excessive lateral rotation and ‘drop’. 🔑 proper motion of the whole foot allows for good compression/expansion mechanisms when running and jumping. This is my version of the cuboid whip.
