Description: Living evidence – Manual therapy and exercise for neck pain
Anita will present the evidence from a risk advising grade perspective and the tidal wave of information that is reaching us. Take home messages for clinicians will include: how do I dose my manual therapy; how do I dose my exercise; what specific elements of exercise do I need; and what is our future direction in terms of running randomised trials and knowledge translation dissemination and uptake.
