Hey guys, glad to see such lively discussions here.

I currently work in a facility that mostly MDT trained (mckenzie) therapists and four Cert MDTs.
We use a lot of MDT for the shoulder, knee, ankles, hips, elbows with incredible success, I was wondering if anybody else uses these techniques.

For anybody unfamiliar with MDT extremities, heres some videos: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCZZsZahJ2wDYQ9dTUWtuTBw

The videos are not all exactly how I apply every technique, but its a general idea.
Such as for the shoulder I would do the extension passively with palms facing up for Internal rotation at shoulder.
