Ep 146. Build your listening and communicating superpowers, with Luke Keaney

Luke Keaney's career at the top level of Gaelic football was cut short at the age of 24 by hip pain and injury. After 5 hip surgeries and countless hours of hard work in the gym and rehabilitation room, Luke has switched his focus from Gaelic football to rowing, and has his eye on the Paris Olympics.

While Luke's career in sport has continued in a different guise, he feels that things might have been different had the clinicians and practitioners he interacted with as a young athlete taken the time to listen and communicate better.

Luke's messages about communicating are relevant whether you work with athletes or non-athletes, at professional or recreational levels, and with youth or adults - there's something for all musculoskeletal rehabilitation clinicians.
