Thank you so much. I have watched all of your playlist videos. I even have learnt techniques and special tests that were not taught during physio school. In my opinion, your videos and physiopedia are some of the best physiotherapy content on the internet. Keep doing what you're doing. From Australia.

Is the MRC scale also known as the Oxford Scale?
I'm an undergrad and have only come across the term 'Oxford Scale' before.
Many thanks.
