  • It is not all about strength! Rethinking the role of exercise for musculokeletal pain relief with Dr. Jared Powell. EP#585
    Mar 27 2026

    In this episode, Dr. Jared Powell invites us to reflect on the mechanistic assumptions underlying exercise-based rehabilitation for musculoskeletal pain relief, based on his editorial recently published in BJSM.

    It’s a great conversation that explores questions such as:

    • Why are these patients getting better?
    • How can we help those who do not respond to exercise?
    • What should be the next steps in research, and what should we be exploring in future clinical trials?
    • Should we offer exercise to all patients with musculoskeletal pain?
    • And how do we explain to patients that recovery may not be all about strength?

    Press play and enjoy!
