Test-Treat-Retest Strategy
When evaluating a musculoskeletal injury - Range of Motion tests and symptom reproduction gives the best clue about what the injury is, followed by palpation(or feeling) the tissues involved. The test-treat-retest strategy involves finding a movement that reproduces pain, treating the tissue with a manual therapy technique and then retesting the movement to see if there is improvement. This lets the practitioner know if they have treated the right tissues or not. In most instances, other than acute injury and inflammation, there should be a change in movement and symptoms.
Does your physician or therapist check their work? If not, why not?
