She explores the nuances of treating Achilles, patellar, hamstring, and gluteal injuries, highlighting why understanding the specific "provocative load" and the dangers of compression are the first steps toward effective rehabilitation. 💭 “If you had someone with achilles tendinopathy you would want to start early on calf raises but you would not give that exercise to someone with peritendinitis because that is their provocative load.” - Dr. Ebonie Rio. 👉🏻 Dr. Ebonie Rio, PT, PhD, is a world-renowned Sports Physiotherapist and a leading authority in tendinopathy research.
