Why only physical therapists? 32 years ago I was called crazy, now "mechanotherapy" is "evidence based". So glad I did not wait 30 years to "prescribe" exercise to my patients. They are very happy as well.

Karim Khan calls mechanotherapy “the most important fundamental concept that underpins rehabilitation exercises”. 

Listen to Karim explain that all exercise-based rehabilitation relies on the cells of the injured tissue sensing the exercise stimulus, converting that signal to protein synthesis, and repairing tissue. He explains why ‘rest doesn’t work’ and argues that mechanotherapy has substantial evidence in its favour. The process applies to all body tissues – to injuries / pathology in bone, muscle, tendon and cartilage.
