Safety screening

Before you start: red-flag check

Tick anything that applies to you now. Items come from Rehab Science’s red-flag list (PDF pp. 198–199) plus warning signs described elsewhere in the book.

GREEN — Educational self-management may be explored

No warning signs selected. Follow a protocol, keep pain at or below 3/10 during exercise, and seek assessment if you are not improving after about 6 weeks (PDF p. 200).

This check is educational and cannot rule out serious illness. Clinical tests on this site are not self-diagnostic tools. Stop or modify any exercise that causes significant or worsening symptoms. Read the red-flag section →
