Inside The Anatomy Assassin: Critical Thinking For Clinicians
Monday, 24 November, 2025
Send us a textPain shouldn’t feel like guesswork. We sat down with therapist, educator, and former pro athlete Julie Pitois to pull back the curtain on a smarter, more human way to solve stubborn pain. Julie co-created the Anatomy Assassin approach, a true‑crime style framework where the “victim” is the loud symptom and the “criminals” are the hidden contributors—movement habits, stress loads, nerve sensitivity, and underperforming tissues—that quietly drive the case. That simple metaphor helps clients drop fear and lean into the process without jargon.We talk about why time and curiosity matter more than any single technique. Short, protocol-driven care often misses the person in front of us; longer intakes, plain-language education, and frequent assess–treat–reassess loops turn sessions into a feedback-rich lab. Julie walks through practical tools: testing in and out of weight bearing, pairing manual inputs with immediate movement, and using clear metaphors—like nerves as subway lines—to explain entrapment, sensitivity, and why symptoms shift. The goal is not to “fix” someone, but to partner with them so they regain confidence to move while exercise builds lasting capacity.You’ll hear how a blended model outperforms silos: early phases may lean on local tissue care, while long-standing pain requires more attention to the nervous system and life context. We cover the pitfalls of no-pain-no-gain thinking, how to avoid chasing symptoms, and how multidisciplinary teams work without hierarchy. If you’re a clinician, coach, or an everyday mover, you’ll leave with a clear roadmap: ask better questions, use targeted tests, explain what’s happening in simple terms, and let results guide the next step.
