Evidence Based Practice
Advanced countries around the world have recognised the cost to society associated with musculoskeletal injury. Most advanced counties, including Australia, have investigated the effectiveness of the many treatments that are available to treat musculoskeletal injury, pain and resultant inability.
The evidence is clear. Joint and soft tissue release can be helpful in the initial stages of treatment. Once tight structures are released the most effective treatment is targeted strengthening exercises with attention to postures and method of work, sport or activity.
The profession of physiotherapy has engaged with evidence based practice. This practice focuses on careful assessment, manual therapy, exercises and activity/work/sport postures and methods.
