In today’s episode I discuss the topic of re-injury.
We all get injured. One thing we are all interested in, is getting re-injured less.
While there is never a quick fix for anything, during this episode I break down some things I understand may be important when addressing the topic of persistent re-injuries.

Episode #148 Iatrogenic factors & concussion
During today’s episode I tackle something I’ve been thinking about for years, the ever difficult question of iatrogenic factors in clinical practice.
An iatrogenic side effect is an illness or symptom, caused by a medical procedure, intervention and/or provider.
I discuss how I see this topic, the things I am paying attention to in my own practice as I try to achieve the best results for the people that I see.
Thank you for listening to my jumbled thoughts on this topic! Is this something you’ve considered before? Comment below.

Customer Reviews
Informative and useful
I love this podcast. As a practicing body worker, I find it super informative and full of useful tips and interesting concepts that give me something to think about.
The only downside is that the volume is very variable. During each podcast there’s a big difference in volume between the introductory music (loud) and Conor’s voice (quiet) and the interviewee’s voice (loud), which can be challenging for the listener.
