Hi,
The test proposed should be studied...but it should go through serious scrutiny.
Just because you are not proficient at the use of the tests and other physios who complain about the tests are also not proficient does not mean that the tests are not reliable...it just means you need to practice more.
If i tested the ball joints of my car, it would not be as thorough a job as a mechanic who has done it for years. I would even get my first few 100 tests being unreliable i would reckon - simply because i would not know what to look for...
That is what an apprentice does - they go through 4 years of supervised training to learn how to fix cars.
Also, you would only hear from physios that aren't proficient at the tests - what about the ones who are good at it?? We are getting results that are excellent thank you very much.
I have examined you test and written much about it. I have asked lots of questions and not had them answered. Therefore, someone touting a test and avoiding questions seems like someone avoiding examination of their test...that is called tunnel vision!
Your APAS test does not add anything other than reminding people to do coronal plane testing - which all good physios should do anyway.
Where is the OGI research BTW?? Whom should we talk to there about the progress of the research done there?
I have shown interest but i am not doing research on your test...perhaps it is the same for them?? Who are the Canadian professors - will they accept an email from me?
Thanks - i hope you are well
