Anterior Knee Pain: Upgrade Your Eval & Treatment

Unreal Results for Physical Therapists and Athletic Trainers

In this episode of the Unreal Results Podcast, I tackle one of the biggest questions that I get from healthcare providers and athletes and that is how to deal with anterior knee pain. I of course talk about using the LTAP (Locator Test Assessment Protocol) to help pinpoint the root cause of anterior knee pain. I also talk about evaluating knee biomechanics and the interconnectedness of body parts such as the kidneys and lungs that could also be contributing to anterior knee pain. I also go over some practical treatment techniques & tips including the importance of the flexor hallucis longus muscle and the infrapatellar nerve, to help with resolving these knee issues. This is a great episode to help you level up your evaluation and treatment for anterior knee pain!
