Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS)
Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) refers to a multifactorial pathogenesis that leads to pain in and around the patella in the absence of other pathology. Historically, it has been referred to as anterior knee pain and is extremely common throughout the lifespan. Almost anyone can get it, but it particularly affects runners, cyclists, hikers, gym-goers, and office workers.
Everyday & sports performance hydration
Staying well hydrated is incredibly important for recreational and elite athletes, as well as non-exercise goers. The body is made up of approximately 72% water and this water assists with a wide range of chemical reactions that occur throughout the body including those that regulate body temperature, lubricate joints, support metabolism, promote fat burning and most importantly transport nutrients to cells to give you energy.
What is shoulder instability?
Shoulder instability is a condition where the shoulder joint (specifically the humeral head and glenoid fossa) cannot maintain its proper position after a partial (subluxation) or complete (dislocation) displacement. This instability occurs due to damage to the ligaments and supporting structures, leading to pain, reduced function, and a higher risk of future dislocations.
