About this episode

In this episode with Dr Julia Treleaven, we cover what to look for in the subjective assessment to distinguish where someone's head and neck symptoms may be coming from. She covered what muscles may be giving us clues and what tests can be helpful. Julia then went into how different sensorimotor control exercises can be helpful as both assessments and treatments.

This episode is closely tied to Julia’s Practical she did with us. With Practicals you can see exactly how top experts assess and treat specific conditions – so you can become a better clinician, faster.
