🔑For all the exercises listed patients need to be able to perform in their FULL ROM showing adequate neuromuscular control before progressing‼️

1️⃣SLR
2️⃣SAQ
3️⃣LAQ
4️⃣Isometrics - beginning at 90 degrees progressing to 60 degrees
5️⃣Loaded partial range leg extension isotonics 90 to 60 degrees
6️⃣Loaded full range double leg extension isotonics

This progression ensures the adequate quad strength to decrease the strain on the graft and the occurrence of front knee pain.

Patient: Just saw my surgeon and he said everything looks good and I can start running 🏃🏽‍♀️

Me: What did he look at?

Patient: He had me bend my knee and said it looks good 👍🏽

Me: Okay…let’s test you 🤷🏽‍♂️

The dreaded question every ACL patient asks “When can I start running?”

Since I don’t make decisions based on “time” ….. I always respond by it depends on when you pass my criteria 🧐

Running begins in Phase 5 (Intro to Impact) of The PRO Method.

DM me to learn more about The PRO Method, my decision making framework.

ACL Rehab: Knee Flexion Edition

Clinicians, have you worked with those patients who have a difficult time getting full knee flexion⁉️

I know I have 🙋🏽‍♂️

In fact, my man CJ is my challenge. If you remember he came to me 5 months after his ACL reconstruction and medical & lateral repair. He had significant knee extension and flexion deficits. 🙄🤦🏽‍♂️

I waited to see him after he got his knee manipulated (MUA).

Since then….

We have regained his extension, however, it has taken more effort to regain his flexion ROM.

In this clip, we use a variety of modalities, stretches and movements to help improve his ROM.

However, the follow through with his HEP gives him the greatest carryover from session to session.

Comment FLEXION for my free HEP for knee flexion ✌🏽

Never stressed about the outcomes…

You can tear your patients’ stitches if you’re not careful after a meniscal repair…

That’s why treating it like a meniscectomy is a huge mistake.

Do you actually know the difference?
