Join us on this exciting podcast episode as we delve into new research comparing platelets versus steroids for spinal injections, and explore the ins and outs of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS), including its vascular and neurogenic variants. Our expert hosts, Tim and Brandon, will share their six evidence-based methods for treating neurogenic TOS, along with their favorite exercises. Plus, we have two exciting announcements from ChiroUp, including a downloadable infographic on medication versus manual therapy and a new research synopsis on the safety of cervical manipulation. So, sit back, relax, and get ready for a thought-provoking discussion.

In this podcast, we will discuss condition-specific prognosis, and why your treatment plan duration is dependent on the tissue injured and associated healing time, not your office policies. We will also gain an understanding of a lesser-known cause of lumbar radiculitis, which is called friction radiculitis. You will learn the factors that delay the recovery of patients with friction radiculitis including a lack of knowledge about the condition, treatment options, and obtaining the proper clinical resources for this condition. Finally, we will finish the podcast by discussing some new research studies that may just change the way you think about spinal manipulation.

In Episode 4 of the Mic’d Up with ChiroUp podcast, the hosts discuss strategies for dealing with a dip in office visits during the holiday season and how to prepare for the new year.

This podcast will detail four findings, then provide real-world advice with supporting evidence surrounding the diagnosis and treatment of Cubital Tunnel Syndrome. Tim and Brandon will also relay past stories and patient encounters, highlighting the intersection between research and action. This podcast allows the listener to immediately implement new evidence-based information into their practice.

Maigne syndrome and cluneal neuropathy are commonly overlooked causes of pain in the lumbosacral region, iliac crest, and buttock. In fact, the pair are causative or contributory in up to 40% of LBP cases. And that prospect increases as symptoms extend over the posterior iliac crest. Maigne syndrome typically results from irritation of a thoracolumbar dorsal ramus. Facet joint dysfunction, degeneration, and instability are common culprits. Maigne syndrome is particularly elusive because the anatomical site of origin is often asymptomatic. This podcast will cover the essentials of management, including the most appropriate assessments, treatments, and exercises.
