Unmasking Medicine: Dr. Stephen Perle Challenges the Relevance of Evidence-Based Practice

The Crackin' Backs Podcast

We live currently, in a world divided, where people don’t listen to learn and where conversations that have different opinions are shunned upon.

This is a shame.
In this podcast, even though it was a slow start, we got into a topic that is currently under a lot of pressure. Evidence based Medicine. What does this mean and is it still relevant?
In this enthralling episode of the Crackin Backs Podcast, we are joined by a trailblazer in the field of Sports chiropractic care, Dr. Stephen Perle. Back in 1991, Dr. Perle shattered the status quo by becoming the medical director of the Mobil/USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, a bold move at a time when the chiropractic profession was just emerging from the fringes. Tune in as Dr. Perle shares his journey from working in the shadows to spearheading a medical team during a pivotal era as well as becoming a professor at a prestigious university.
As we find ourselves in a time of shifting perspectives and Dr. Perle's offers his opinions on the failures of current practices and solutions he feels need to take place. He advocates for a transformative approach that goes beyond treating superficial symptoms, urging us to look "up river" to identify and address the underlying causes of health conditions based on real scientific evidence.
Dr. Perle, who has been at the forefront of advocating for Evidence-Based Medicine since its inception, also engages us in a thought-provoking discussion on the evolution of healthcare approaches. Discussing the differences of Intuition Based Medicine, where experience reigned supreme, to the advent of Evidence Based Practice, Dr. Perle offers a critical reflection on the efficacy of these approaches and contemplates the path ahead.
Join us for this riveting discussion that not only retraces the steps of a pioneer but also envisions a future where the chiropractic profession takes a leading role in fostering a healthier, more integrated approach to well-being.
