In this episode, Kellie Wilkie takes us through her clinical reasoning and thought patterns around the assessment and treatment of athletic low back pain. We discuss how and why she uses manual therapy in her treatments as well as exercise progression for offloading the back in addition to increasing the patient’s confidence. This episode is closely tied to Kellie’s practical she did with us.
