Normally, such techniques or devices will allow s... Read More about Postural taping and braces following osteoporotic vertebral fracture.

E27: Evidencing the behaviour change model underpinning a personalised and tailored app for low back pain (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Purpose: Self-management of low back pain is supported by national guidance (Savigny 2016, Foster et al, 2018, ). Digital modalities have gained traction as a potentially effective way of delivering information and education. It is vital to evaluate...

The effect of Mulligan's mobilization with movement following total knee arthroplasty: Protocol of a single-blind randomized controlled trial (2020)
Journal Article

Background: Mulligan's mobilization with movement (MWM) aims to enhance the kinematics of the joint. Kinematic impairment of the knee joint is significant following total knee arthroplasty (TKA), which could be managed with Mulligan's MWM. This artic...
