About this episode
Karim Khan catches up with associate professor Michele Sterling (Centre for National Research on Disability and Rehabilitation Medicine (CONROD), University of Queenstown, Australia) at the Canadian Physiotherapy Association Congress. As an international expert on neck pain, Michele explains what we currently do and don’t know about whiplash, and advises on managing the condition.
She talks us through the importance of early pain management, the link with post traumatic stress disorder and what to do if you suspect this, manual and physical therapies, and treating chronic pain.
