If you are only looking at traditional musculoskeletal frameworks, you might be missing the hidden driver behind their persistent pain: the pelvic floor. In this episode of PT ProTalk, host Mariana Parks sits down with Dr. Alex Hill, a physical therapist specializing in pelvic health and oncology, and owner of Oncopelvic PT. Designed specifically for general orthopedic, MSK, and and for general orthopedic, and MSK clinicians, this conversation breaks down how specialized screening tools can completely transform your daily clinical practice. From diagnosing deep muscular trigger points that masquerade as adductor strains to managing post-operative constipation and understanding the long-term impact of radiation fibrosis, Dr. Hill shares actionable insights to help you look "outside the box, but inside the pelvis" 💭 "If you think you're not working with somebody with pelvic floor issues, you need to think again." - Dr. Alexandra Hill 👉🏻 Dr. Alexandra Hill, PT, DPT, is a dual Board-Certified Clinical Specialist in Pelvic Women’s Health and Oncologic Physical Therapy and a LANA Certified Lymphedema Therapist.

  • Ep 207. Pain & Disability Drivers Management: A New Framework for Low Back Pain with Prof. Yannick Tousignant-Laflamme
    2026/06/23
    🚨Try Hanna Health free for 30 days - a customizable HEP platform where you can use your own videos, edit quickly, and track patient access. Start your trial here.💡If you’ve ever felt stuck with a low back pain patient whose physical recovery has plateaued, this conversation is the roadmap you need. Prof. Yannick breaks down the clinical reasoning behind the Pain and Disability Drivers Management (PDDM) framework, an innovative model designed to help clinicians stop guessing and start measuring the hidden factors driving pain and disability. Moving away from a narrow, outdated focus on isolated structural damage, Dr. Yannick shares how to operationalize the biopsychosocial model using practical, 15-minute digital screening tools. 💭 "Musculoskeletal pain is not only about nociception. It's about nociception, yes, but it's also about nervous system dysfunctions, comorbidities, cognitions, emotions, and contextual factors." - Prof. Yannick Tousignant-Laflamme👉🏻 Prof. Yannick Tousignant-Laflamme is a physiotherapist and Full Professor at the Université de Sherbrooke, where he also earned his Master’s and Ph.D. in Clinical Sciences following a B.Sc. from the University of Ottawa and a postdoctoral fellowship at the Université de Montréal. His research program focuses on improving the quality, value, and patient-centered outcomes of musculoskeletal rehabilitation through three core areas: optimizing low back pain management via his innovative Pain and Disability Drivers Management (PDDM) framework, enhancing chronic pain management through structured patient self-management programs, and personalizing care using prognosis and value-based principles. Additionally, he collaborates internationally to develop and validate clinical assessment tools that help therapists accurately measure pain and functional limitations.📚In this episode, you'll learn:Why standard biopsychosocial care isn't enough, and what the PDDM model does differently to identify the real drivers behind your patient's pain and disabilityHow to screen for the 5 PDDM domains (nociceptive, nervous system dysfunction, comorbidities, cognitive-emotional, and contextual) without adding significant time to your initial assessmentHow to turn a patient's driver profile into an actual treatment plan, and why 91% of LBP patients have nervous system dysfunction elements you're likely missingWhat the research shows about patient outcomes when care is matched to drivers, and how to set realistic expectations with your patients from day one🔎Yannick's Resource of Information:All of Yannick's publications on PubMed 📲 Yannick's contact information:LinkedInWebsite 🎥Link to interview on Youtube 👉 ⁠Share Your Feedback⁠Help Us Build Better Solutions for Your Practice! 🚀 Take 60 seconds to answer 3 quick questions and help us build new paths to make your practice run smoother.🎙Join our ⁠email list⁠ to receive podcast updates📸⁠Instagram⁠ 📱⁠Facebook⁠💻⁠LinkedIn⁠🐦⁠Twitter⁠📩Email: ⁠mariana@ptprotalk.com⁠PT Pro Talk Podcast is only possible with the support of forward-looking and innovative companies like Hanna Health⁠ and ⁠SaraHealth⁠.

  • Ep 206. Dry Needling: Clinical Decision-Making Over Technique with Dr. Edo Zylstra
    2026/06/09
    🚨Try Hanna Health free for 30 days - a customizable HEP platform where you can use your own videos, edit quickly, and track patient access. Start your trial here.💡 Is dry needling just another tool in your kit, or is it a gateway to deeper clinical reasoning?In this episode of PT Pro Talk, Dr. Zylstra challenges physical therapists to look past the physical technique of inserting a needle and focus on the complex neurophysiological "why" behind the treatment.We dive deep into the radiculopathic model of orthopedics, discussing why many chronic peripheral issues (like that stubborn shoulder or elbow pain) might actually be driven by a silent segmental problem in the spine. Dr. Zylstra also breaks down the precise mechanisms of the twitch response and explains why dry needling should never be used as a standalone treatment if we want to avoid creating patient dependency💭 ‘’When we get a good twitch response, that's like plugging a plug into a wall socket; you're getting access to the nervous system. And the language of the nervous system is electricity." - Dr. Edo Zylstra👉🏻 Dr. Edo Zylstra, PT, DPT, is the co-founder of Tactical Physiotherapy and founder of KinetaCare Physiotherapy, with more than 26 years of experience in orthopedic rehabilitation and dry needling. An Orthopedic Certified Specialist, he focuses on identifying the root causes of neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction rather than just managing symptoms. He has trained clinicians across corporate healthcare systems, private practices, and military and special operations settings, with educational influence reaching providers who work with elite athletes. He is also the founder of KinetaCore, a Functional Dry Needling® education company later acquired by Evidence In Motion. With Dr. Tyler Waterway, he co-developed the Radiculopathic Model of Orthopedics, the foundation of Tactical Physiotherapy.📚In this episode, you'll learn:When to use dry needling and when not to: identifying good candidates, understanding spinal vs. peripheral targeting, and the neurophysiological mechanismsHow dry needling integrates into your treatment plan: using it strategically alongside other techniques rather than as a standalone interventionWhat happens after the needles come out: the critical session follow-up that determines whether DN creates lasting change or just temporary reliefThe evidence and mechanisms: understanding the proposed mechanisms and how they inform clinical decision-making🔎Edo's Resource of Information:Waterway T, et al.
