The ArthroRehab – Knee Module is an intensive two-day clinical education program that empowers rehabilitation professionals with advanced, evidence-based competencies in the assessment and management of knee pathologies. This highly practical course is designed to bridge the gap between clinical reasoning and functional rehabilitation, equipping participants with the tools to individualize treatment protocols for diverse knee conditions encountered in both general practice and sports settings.
Whether dealing with early-stage pathologies or guiding an athlete through return-to-sport protocols post-ACL reconstruction, this course ensures clinicians are equipped with the latest techniques in biomechanical analysis, neuromuscular control strategies, and performance-based rehabilitation.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
Comprehend the functional demands of the knee joint and conduct biomechanically informed assessments.
Apply pattern recognition strategies for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment planning.
Differentiate and design rehabilitation pathways based on injury type (e.g., ACL, PCL, Meniscus, PFPS, OA Knee) and surgical intervention.
Implement criteria-based progression models for rehabilitation, integrating strength & conditioning principles.
Utilize contemporary strategies for return-to-play (RTP) decisions and injury prevention in athletic populations.
Understand the role of pain neuroscience, motor control, and cognitive rehabilitation in knee pain management.
Breakdown of common clinical myths and misconceptions in knee rehabilitation.
Detailed functional anatomy and biomechanics of the knee joint.
Hands-on workshops for clinical examination, palpation, and functional testing.
Rehabilitation protocols for:
Patello-Femoral Pain Syndrome
Anterior & Posterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
Meniscal Tears (conservative and surgical)
Osteoarthritis & Total Knee Arthroplasty
Hamstring injuries in athletes
Case-based discussions to enhance clinical reasoning and critical decision-making.
Structured progression models for gait re-education, neuromuscular control, and sport-specific drills.
Practical tools for return-to-sport testing and injury prevention programs.
