Physio joins groundbreaking study into unexplained medical conditions
A BOURNEMOUTH physiotherapist is taking part in a £1million study exploring how philosophy can be used to find the causes of unexplained medical symptoms.
Matthew Low, who works for the Royal Bournemouth and Christchurch Hospitals Trust, has been selected to take part in the groundbreaking research along with other leading international health experts.
The musculoskeletal physiotherapist is one of a 27-strong team made up of fellow physiotherapists as well as health scientists and philosophers, who have been awarded the grant by the Research Council of Norway.
