Exploring Movement Analysis Complexity in Physical Therapy

Dr. Beth Fisher, PhD, PT, FAPTA joins us on the show again to talk about something that has been the impetus of her career: movement analysis. As rehab professionals sometimes we can overcomplicate movement impairments thinking it is always due to pathology and overlook the simpler underlying cause, namely implicit choice. Do people with neurologic conditions move a certain way because they must or because they (unknowingly) choose to? How do you decide? What if you could correct dysfunctional movement patterns you thought were due to the injury with a shift in perspective? If the ultimate goal for all of us is to help our patients and clients achieve greater success, it will pay off to listen to what Dr. Fisher has to share!
