I think this video is a great idea to spread awareness. Everyone on here should should post this video to their facebook and/or myspace or whatever blog sites you might log on to, to spread this message. This is a great start, but we need everyone here to help push this video to the next step.
Great Video, but I would advocate that people seek out a physical therapist that practices evidenced based medicine rather than a certified "manual therapist".
The skills demonstrated as effective for LBP are entry level physical therapy skills and can be effectively applied unhindered by the rhetoric of the osteopathic manual therapy model.
A certified "manual therapist" can be one who practices evidence based medicine. I agree with what you say, but it's not like a physical therapist is forced to choose one or the other.
I absolutely agree. I am not a certified manual physical therapist, but ice and ultrasound are not the current best evidence for treatment of low back pain, thus manual physical therapy gets the point across more effectively - Not all PTs are created equal, unfortunately...
Can you post the references for your facts in the video? I would like to use them in an article i am writing.
Awesome video.
thanks
