Professor Roger Kerry joins the podcast to unpack one of the most debated topics in musculoskeletal care: the risks and benefits of manual therapy for people with head and neck pain.

Roger is the lead for the physiotherapy program at the University of Nottingham, an interprofessional curriculum designer, researcher, PhD supervisor, and author of the new textbook The Head & Neck: Theory & Practice. His AAOMPT keynote focuses on cutting through decades of misinformation and helping clinicians understand what the evidence actually says.

In this conversation:• Cervical manual therapy: what’s risky, what’s not, and what’s misunderstood

• Why head & neck pain is still surrounded by outdated ideas

• The problem with the way we teach manual therapy

• How educators can break restrictive traditions

• What emerging PhD work is revealing about the future of physical therapy

• Roger’s personal journey from failed rehab patient → world-class academic

This episode is essential listening for anyone who treats neck pain or teaches manual therapy.
