Managing Tendinopathy Workshop
Learn the 3 factors that will help your tendinopathy patient recover fast:
1/ Thorough assessment: Confirming the tendon is the cause of the pain
2/ Advice issued to your patient: specific tendon advice that improves your patients recovery
3/ What exercises you prescribe: specific tendon exercise prescription
This course will also help you:
Refresh the anatomy of a tendon and understand the cellular process involved in tendinopathy
Understand the risk factors of tendinopathy (including metabolic disease, hyperlipidaemia, menopause, as well as over-training/overuse)
Identify patients at risk of tendinopathy and implement steps to minimise risk
How to successfully assess and determine that the tendon is the cause of pain
Be able to implement the tendinopathy treatment continuum (from sub-acute stage to return to sport). Gain loads of great exercise ideas for your patient at every stage of their rehab. Learn specific advice that assists your patient's recovery.
Other treatments: what other treatments are useful/not useful and when to refer (massage, foam rolling, Physio, injections)
Imaging – when to refer to GP, what to look for in imaging reports
When the tendon isn’t the cause of pain – understand what other injuries can occur at the same joint.
