We get it. Most of our listeners are practicing clinicians. In the trenches, dealing with all of the demands of care, yet also thriving in the joy of what calls many to this profession. Then let's get this party started right by getting one of the best clinical minds on the show. Tim Fearon is the first to inform everyone that he is not a researcher, and he doesn’t care to have a publication record. Though he values the importance of research. Yet reminds us that part of evidence-based practice is clinician experience - and patient values. We discuss the importance of implementing research while persistently pursuing the highest level of clinical reasoning. Many physical therapists who have sought manual therapy mentorship have found Tim Fearon and have paid it forward. Tim’s mentorship tree is impressive. And we were excited to discuss his growth and journey as a manual therapist.  Hosts: Derek Clewley, Seth Peterson

Hands On Hands Off with special guest Dr. Tim Fearon

Tim Fearon, Lead Faculty of Phoenix Manual Therapy &amp; Owner of Fearon Physical Therapy, comes onto HET Podcast to talk about development and fostering psychomotor skill and clinical reasoning in healthcare professionals and much more! Tim is celebrating 40 years as a clinician.  Tim's Message to the PT Profession Physical therapy students enter their educational pursuits seeking the skill required to treat patients. The successful attainment of the degree leads the student to a level of unconscious incompetence which patients will rapidly awaken the intellectually honest amongst them to. The rising clinician then begins to seek the path to conscious competence.  This is where the current system lets the aspiring clinician down. The self motivated  and driven student finds a way to create a unique mentoring path that works for them. This is our system for creating the future of the profession. The primary education is delivered by skillful academicians who are in turn fed by skillful researchers.  This can only supply the student with knowledge, not the skill required to apply it, question it, build from it and master the interface between that which is known and that which we are learning through the skill &amp; artistic application of our intellect.  Until our educational process balances the scales between research, academics, and skill we will continue to produce a preponderance of mediocre clinicians and as such a mediocre professional body. The father of EBM, David Sackett warned a long time ago  “Without clinical expertise, practice risks becoming tyrannized by evidence, for even excellent external evidence may be inapplicable to, or inappropriate for an individual patient.” No one chooses to attend the performance of a violinist who has mastered the reading and writing of sheet music yet never devoted time to picking up the instrument in the mindful practice of summoning the sound of it’s music from the skills required to bring all three components to life.  Tim's Email Address: tofpt@mac.com   Phoenix Manual Therapy Website: http://www.phoenixmanualtherapy.com/  Evidence in Motion Website: https://www.evidenceinmotion.com/  "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand: https://www.amazon.com/Atlas-Shrugged-Ayn-Rand/dp/0451191145   The PT Hustle Website: https://www.thepthustle.com/  Schedule an Appointment with Kyle Rice: www.passtheptboards.com     HET LITE Tool: www.pteducator.com/het      Anywhere Healthcare: https://anywhere.healthcare/ (code: HET)       Biography:  Timothy Fearon received his PT degree from The Ohio State University.  He completed the graduate program in the Musculoskeletal Sequence at Northwestern University.  He completed his Doctorate in Physical Therapy at Northern Arizona University.  He founded Phoenix Manual Therapy (PMT), which initially offered courses, based on the Nordic System of orthopedic manual therapy.  Phoenix Manual Therapy progressed to offering a long-term course frame for study of the Australian clinical reasoning approach to orthopedic manual therapy with integration of Norwegian techniques and therapeutic exercise.  The course has been running over the last 25 years.  In 2011 PMT began to sponsor Dr. Peter Gibbons &amp; Dr. Phillip Tehan's spinal manipulation course work and Fearon is lead faculty for course one.  He earned his Full Fellowship status in the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Therapy by the challenge process in 1999; he renewed that status in 2010.   Dr. Fearon is currently adjunct faculty at A.
