#59: Exercise, sets, reps and the pharmacology problem
<p>Is more always better? Is there a dose response effect of exercise for musculoskeletal pain?

# 58: Most rotator cuff tears don't hurt
<p>The FIMAGE study scanned both shoulders of 602 adults from the general population using high-resolution 3-Tesla MRI. Only 7 had a structurally normal rotator cuff. In this episode, I walk through what the study found, why 78% of full-thickness tears were in people with no shoulder pain, and what happens to the diagnostic value of a scan when the finding it detects is near-universal. I challenge the assumption that prevalence equals normality, explore why the word "tear" imports a trauma narrative into what is usually a degenerative process, and make the case that imaging findings deserve a smaller seat at the clinical reasoning table than we've historically given them.</p> <h2><strong>Key resources</strong></h2> <p><span>Ibounig T et al.

#57: Stop Looking for a Winner: The Case for Treatment Pluralism
<p>In this episode, I walk through my recent JOSPT paper arguing that no single treatment modality has proven itself superior for musculoskeletal pain and that the profession should stop pretending otherwise.</p> <p>Drawing on Isaiah Berlin's distinction between the hedgehog and the fox, I make the case for treatment pluralism: the idea that multiple interventions can lead to recovery, and that rigid allegiance to any one approach is not supported by the evidence.</p> <h2><strong>Key resources</strong></h2> <p>Powell et al 2026.<strong> </strong>Many Paths to Recovery: The Case for Treatment Pluralism.
