Best manual therapy articles of the week for January 31, 2021

Articles of the Week – January 31, 2021

January 29, 2021/in Massage, Massage Clinic, Massage Therapist, Massage Therapy /by Jon Cain

We’re not here to fear-monger. However, as manual therapist who spend some of the most time with patients among all of their healthcare practitioners, we need to be very aware of red flags with back pain and what they could mean. A good reminder of some of those basic questions that we learn in school and might be forgetting to ask.

When to Worry About Low Back Pain – Paul Ingraham

 

We’ve been hearing a lot of dialogue against the use of static stretching these days, but why? This article gives us a great explanation of the research method errors made in years past while reminding us of some of the evidence that does still support static stretching in certain circumstances.

To stretch or not to stretch before exercise: What you need to know about warm-ups – David George Behm

 

It’s been a tough year and I’m sure there are people coming in for treatment simply to experience human touch. Touch has a huge impact on our physical and mental well being, so this is an interesting read at how this pandemic has affected some.

Lost touch: how a year without hugs affects our mental health – Elanor Morgan

Hopefully, this new direction of research will begin to suggest different strategies for mitigating the pain.

Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness – Have We Looked in the Wrong Direction for More Than 100 Years?  – Sonkodi et al.

 

You have likely heard of exercise-induced analgesia, in which exercise creates a pain-dampening effect in the body. A very interesting study was done, however, that looked at the ability of suggestion to create a nocebo effect that directly counteracted this benefit.

Exercise Blocks Pain, But Only For Believers – Alex Hutchison
