Welcome to our first episode in English. We've been producing
content in German for our audience of physiotherapists and
healthcare professionals, but we're expanding our reach to also
serve international listeners and to collaborate with an expert
from across the Channel.
Today's topic is one that nearly every physiotherapist encounters
in their practice: Patellofemoral Pain. It's one of the most
prevalent knee conditions we see, yet it remains clinically
challenging and sometimes frustrating to manage.
Joining us to discuss this topic is Dr. Bradley Neal, an Advanced
Clinical Academic Fellow in Precision Musculoskeletal Medicine at
Queen Mary University of London's Sports & Exercise Medicine
Centre. He has published in leading peer-reviewed journals
including the British Journal of Sports Medicine, and he runs
Team PFP – a resource dedicated to
patellofemoral pain.
Topics in this episode:
Fundamentals: What is Patellofemoral Pain?
Risk Factors and Etiology of PFP
Assessment and Diagnosis
Treatment and Rehabilitation – What Works?
Enjoy listening!
