A brief history of subtalor joint neutral theory reliability and validity. If you consider yourself an evidence based clinician it’s past time to abandon STJN theory

Waiting for the vote and I reminded Jared Moskowitz that there was never so much chaos in the House when George Santos was Speaker. Jared went over to Santos to tell him that and Santos said, “That’s why I don’t want to be Speaker again.”
