When is it time to alter our beliefs?

An article came to my attention within the past few days, one that really challenges what I have been taught and practice. Titled "The fall of the postural-structural-biomechanical model in manual and physical therapies: Exemplified by lower back pain". I've posted the link on my website Research page, #210.

I am aware that there always have been, and probably always will be, challenges and changes to therapeutic paradigms, but this one is a big one for me. It also challenges much of the information that I was taught about the foundations of Myofascial Release.Many therapists are happy doing what works, without regard for the proof. This has been the mantra for the past few decades with much of the lack of research regarding MFR. But can we stay in that place when something more objective conflicts with those views?

I'd love others to read through the article and share your thoughts.
