Achilles and Patellar Tendinopathy Treatments
- Date: 18-Jan-16
- Time: 3:24 pm
Achilles and patellar tendinopathy treatments usually include tendon loading, to promote tissue healing and return to activity. This review compares the clinical outcomes (improved neuromuscular performance, improved imaging, ) of different tendon loading programmes. Although the Alfredson protocol (isolated eccentric loading, 3x15reps 2/day, 12 weeks) is the most popular, evidence seems to question its superiority in terms of clinical outcomes. For Achilles...

Benefits of Dry needling
- Date: 20-Nov-15

Dry needling is a unique procedure designed to specifically target and restore muscle function, with an emphasis on improving tissue healing and restoring normal tissue function. This is important as continued activity with poor muscle function may lead to further tissue damage and increased pain. Dry needling is not meant to replace conventional medical procedures such as physical therapy or surgery. However, when combined with conventional treatment options, dry needling...

Trunk, hip and knee biomechanics in patellofemoral pain
- Date: 16-Nov-15
- Time: 5:59 am
A recent study has compared trunk muscle strength and activation levels, ipsilateral trunk lean, hip adduction and knee abduction during the single leg squat between subjects with and without PFPS. It was found that trunk strength was decreased in those with PFPS; no differences in activation levels were present between groups. On top of that, subjects with PFPS showed a greater ipsilateral trunk lean, hip adduction and knee abduction during the single leg squat. It is...
