Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome & Knee Dysfunction: Learn to palpate and treat the quadriceps, IT band, and TFL, building hands-on skills to address the muscle imbalances that underlie anterior knee pain. Rectus femoris and sartorius reappear here from a different angle, having already come up in Session 4 as part of the reasoning behind Lower Crossed Syndrome.
Lower Leg: Shin Splints & Achilles Tendinopathy: Learn to palpate and treat the calf and deep compartment muscles behind these presentations, and pick up the hands-on signs that separate true shin splints from its less common variants.
Plantar Fasciitis & Ankle Sprains: Learn to palpate and treat the plantar fascia directly, and build the technique skills for the peroneal muscles' role in ankle stability and sprain recovery.
Clinical Reasoning: Build the skill of feeling, interpreting, deciding, and adapting, not just following protocols.
