Osteos can vary from quite good to totally quack based. Not as bad as chiros and naturopaths on the quack scale.
Go visit a gp if you want quackery bazza..

The difference between bad gps and quacks is that when bad GPs made mistakes it's due to a misapplication, misunderstanding or lack of knowledge of the science. When quacks make a mistake its because the principles they are applying are complete baloney.
Same then applies to both... Herbalists can and do do Alot of wonderful things.. Naturopaths with homeopathy magic photos of energy fields and other rubbish quack yes.
But a naturopath who studies nutrition and herbalism.. Different story
Anyone had a bad experience with their Physio and punted them?
I'm considering doing it myself. Just wanted to read any problems others have had.
I go to curtin uni in perth and was in the uni bookshop the other day and saw quite a few books like starting strength and progressive programming in the physios book section. thought that was pretty cool.
I have a torn labrum, which is cartilage around the shoulder socket. The Physio refers to it as "frozen shoulder". It feels more painful since I've been seeing the guy. Admittedly I've been slack in not doing the rehab exercises as often as he told me. However it seems to me that this should only delay my recovery rate, not make me feel more pain than before I started.
I had a certain level of pain before I saw the guy (and therefore before I'd done any rehab work). But now, even though I've done several rehab sessions I have a lot more pain? That don't compute to me.
Funnily enough I don't particularly have a bad opinion of the guy. He's a sports Physio who works on one of the Aussie cricketers. He knows a bit about Arthur Jones nautilus machines and a bit of weight training stuff, though he did recommend I use a barbell for a 2kg rehab exercise. He was shocked when I told him the bar was 20kg.
yes mate, and a bloody good sport, i suppose your a soccer fan...Crickets a sport?

I hate physios they dont have a clue what theyre talking about and they keep "insisting" you make another appointment. FUCK OFF!!

if you really do have a torn labrum you should be seeing an orthopaedic surgeon, physio will not help.
Can you elaborate any further on labral tears, do you know much about them? I've googled it, but didn't find a lot of concrete stuff about treatment.
