Understanding Tendinopathies of the Hip & Pelvis | Complete Series

Description

eBook 1: THEORY

Mechanobiological mechanisms and implications for understanding aetiology and management of tendinopathy

This first module dives deep into the mechanobiological mechanisms associated with tendinopathy. First, an understanding of basic tendon structure is required before introducing the molecules that maintain homeostasis and exploring the influence of cytokines and mechanical loading.

eBook 2: GLUTEALS

Greater Trochanteric Pain – Gluteal Tendinopathy & Associated Pathologies

This module builds on the understanding of mechanobiological mechanisms associated with tendinopathy and explores specific research findings for gluteal tendinopathy and the clinical implications for assessment and management of this common condition.

eBook 3: HAMSTRINGS

Proximal HamstringTendinopathy & Associated Pathologies

This module details mechanobiological mechanisms of proximal hamstring tendinopathy and the clinical implications for assessment and management of this condition, common particularly in the running population. Local structural and functional anatomy, together with known patho-anatomy is examined prior to discussion of the pathoaetiological model.

eBook 4: HIP FLEXORS AND ADDUCTORS

Iliopsoas & Adductor Related Groin Pain

This module explores two common groin pain clinical entities, adductor-related and iliopsoas-related groin pain. The adductor and iliopsoas tendons play a key role in these clinical entities, either as a pain source or a mechanism by which forces transferred by the tendon to adjacent structures results in pain or injury.
