  The authors studied physiotherapy together at St Thomas' Hospital, London where the methods of Dr Cyriax were taught. From that original inspiration they developed their clinical practice encompassing a wider scope of physiotherapy skills, but always building on the solid, logical base provided by orthopaedic medicine. Both now work in private practice and combine this with a teaching commitment to the Society of Orthopaedic Medicine. As course principals they are involved in teaching orthopaedic medicine and are particularly interested in empowering students to learn.
