This thread is outstanding ! Going through it a second time with a fine tooth comb. Thank-you Jason and all contributers.

Just adding to the thanks-fest. Great stuff. Put my mind at rest the thought of not having to empty out the tool box and restock. Just turn the swords to plowshears! I too followed the core stability path and now have re-branded it a Trojan horse into graded exposure - edit out the mumbo jumbo about the protective gentle bracing add in the mindful awareness of the safety of the movement, here and now, a step on the journey to what will become a more trusted, stronger, flexible and painful (but non-threateningly so) back. In reality the strength is largely still there and the flexibility too. The patient had lost their experience of it to the protective threat of pain - the exercises just guide a safe path to the rediscovery of the misplaced power and movement that they still had within them.

Also adding thanks as I realize the time and effort it takes to create a wealth of creative and scientific discussions regarding moving meso to ecto treatment rationalizations must be tiring. I am continuing to read insatiably from the many informative forums here. I take this one particularly to heart as I feel on the cusp of crossing the chasm.
