Why does pain persist when an injury should have healed? Do you really need surgery? What does an MRI actually tell you? And how do you know what exercises will help you recover? ⠀ On the Rehab Science podcast, Dr. Tom Walters breaks down real rehabilitation problems and explains how an experienced clinician thinks through them. ⠀ Each episode explores the story behind an injury or pain condition, the clues that matter, common misconceptions, and the reasoning behind an effective rehabilitation plan. You'll also hear conversations with leading clinicians, researchers, surgeons, and other experts about the science of pain, movement, injury, and recovery. ⠀ From back pain and disc injuries to shoulder problems, tendon injuries, running injuries, and chronic pain, the goal is always the same: to separate what we know from what we assume and give you a clearer path forward. ⠀ Real cases. Better questions. Smarter rehabilitation. ⠀ Whether you're dealing with an injury yourself, helping someone recover, or simply want to better understand how the human body works, Rehab Science will help you think differently about pain, movement, and recovery.
