Ep. 144: Re-Air | Lumbopelvic Spine Diagnosis | Challenging the Status Quo with Dr. Mark Laslett

Dr. Mark Laslett, a renowned physiotherapist with over 50 years of experience, challenges traditional approaches to diagnosing lumbopelvic pain. This episode (originally Ep. 27) dives into Dr. Laslett's research on sacroiliac joint diagnosis and the resistance it faced from both spine surgeons and physical therapists.

💭” We proved you are able to diagnose sacroiliac joint pain. The spine surgery community didn't want that, and the PT community didn't want to give up their palpation diagnosis.” - Dr. Mark Laslett.

Our guest Dr. Mark Laslett, PhD, NZRPS, Dip.MT, Dip.MDT is a New Zealand Board Registered Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy Specialist (NZRPS). He was in continuous musculoskeletal clinical practice 1971-April 2024. He is now retired from clinical practice after 53 years of fullt time practice but continues involvement in research & post graduate teaching. He completed doctoral studies at Linköping University, Sweden (2005), based on diagnostic accuracy research with chronic low back patients undergoing interventional spinal diagnostic procedures with the late Dr Charles Aprill MD in New Orleans.
Mark has taught short courses internationally since 1985. Between 1985 and 1998 this was as a senior international instructor for the McKenzie Institute International. He commenced teaching his own upper and lower limb courses internationally in 1993 until 2004. Since then, his teaching has focused on the lumbar spine, pelvis and hip, as well as the general principles of the science of diagnostics. Mark is an honorary life member of the New Zealand Manipulative Physiotherapists Association (NZMPA), Physiotherapy New Zealand, and the Swedish branch of the McKenzie Institute. Mark was the first physiotherapist in New Zealand to be Physiotherapy Board registered as a clinical specialist (musculoskeletal) in 2014.
