On Friday I had the pleasure of chatting to the brilliant Karen Litzy and recording for her Health, Wealthy and Smart Podcast. Our topic of conversation was Gluteal Tendinopathy, covering a range of areas;
- Subjective assessment and key questions
- Objective evaluation and tests to guide rehab
- Training load management
- Exploring beliefs and the impact of pain
- Treatment and exercise prescription
- Gait analysis and re-training
We also touched on intrinsic factors that can influence tendon health such as hormonal change around the menopause. We use TendonQ to help screen for such factors.
