PTSMC Clinical Excellence Papers
Below you’ll find a list clinical papers written by PTSMC physical therapists and shared with our clinicians in order to help our therapists better understand and put into practice new and unique concepts, techniques and approaches to physical therapy.
These resources include information on new techniques such as Blood Flow Restriction Therapy and Trigger Point Dry Needling, novel approaches to things like ankle injuries and back pain, deep-dives into specializations such as women’s health and athletic training, and much more. We hope you find useful ideas and information you can take and use in your own daily treatment.
