In this episode of the Barbell Rehab Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Natasha Barnes to talk rehab for climbers.
Natasha shares how her own climbing injuries shaped her approach to rehab, then we dive into real-world decision making when working with climbers, when to keep them climbing, when to pull back, and why a clear diagnosis still matters with shoulder pain. We also cover how strength training fits into climbing performance and injury prevention, and finish with advice for clinicians and coaches new to working with climbers.
