Today we honor the memory of all those we lost on September 11, 2001. May we never forget their stories – and the bravery of our first responders and troops who sacrificed so much.

Humans are amazing!

We're hiring a part-time physiotherapist. There is the potential for this position to lead to full-time. Please share. DM for more info. Thanks!

Great paper here. The information is equally applicable to all structural based manual therapy approaches.

#nbpoli Got an idea from a very cool album cover ;)

IMO this paper should be read by all clinicians: What does patient centred care look like? Its a partnership. 'I was able to co-create a new narrative that made sense of things in ways that made biological AND biographical sense.' chiromt.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Case study: 27 year old male presents reporting left sided “achy, stabbing, and burning” neck pain that radiated into the axilla & left shoulder with progressive motor shoulder girdle weakness affecting ADLs and ability to raise arm. Has visible atrophy 👇 Diagnoses?

@Retlouping In my experience, I usually find that these types of exercises are created by trainers who are trying to appear as though they have a deeper understanding of training. When in reality, they're just exercises that make no sense and increase the risk of injury.

What is she training for? 😂 “ there are no bad exercises” but this is stretching the envelope 😂

New Brunswick's healthcare system is broken. Don't be fooled by the right or left into thinking they have a magic wand that will fix it. Government, Horizon and Vitalite are to blame. Citizens need to take matters into their own hands and protest in order for things to change.

@suziejams You need to look at the ceiling sir

@advantagephysio I said on your back please, no on your back, yes your back, yes turn over please…on your back…😁

When you ask a patient to lay on their back on the table:

@stevethaviking @andrewwaugh13 @BruceFitchMLA Great point. Imagine how many more beds Horizon and Vitalite would be able to create if they eliminated these wasteful managerial roles in the hospitals.

@andrewwaugh13 @BruceFitchMLA Have you ever looked into how many managers and executives there are in hospitals along with their assistants? Look at the overhead in hospitals look at who these people are connected to and how they got their positions. Healthcare funding is plenty if we got rid of most of these

@andrewwaugh13 @BruceFitchMLA Isn't that kind of their job to speak with the media and public?! What else could Fitch be doing that is preventing him from addressing the ER situation?

@arothschildpt It is a delicate dance when challenging these long held beliefs.

Unpopular stance: Sometimes it's the patients that are overly-pathoanatomically focused. The forward-thinking clinician will have a greater challenge providing evidence-based care with these pts than those that are still stuck in the old models of practice

Yes, step out the door and start running. They are ready.

The worst basketball player ever.

@andrewwaugh13 Is she still the Chief Medical Officer?

I've been working as a physiotherapist for 20 years and completed countless post-grad courses and often times the best advice I can give a patient is: "Just keep moving her buddy."
