Declarations
:
: James Weir, Tim Mitchell and Darren Beales all work at Pain Options, a private physiotherapy clinic from which participant recruitment did occur through a mailing list of discharged patients. Outside of recruitment, these relationships had no bearing on the study itself. Eighteen of the twenty participants were recruited from accessing and emailing a list of discharged patients from the clinic where the primary author JW, and authors TM and DB practice clinically. The primary author JW had previously interacted clinically with 3 of the 20 participants. The other authors declare no conflicts of interest.
