  • Patellofemoral pain syndrome exerci… by Dr. Greg Lehman
    ShareAttached is a basic exercise protocol as part of a large physiotherapy regime I might use for someone with some lower extremity dysfunction.  Many of these exercises would be used for non specific knee pain (PFPS, ITB syndrome).  The nordic hamstring exercise could be skipped but should certainly be used [...]
  • Scapular Retraction/Protraction Exe… by Dr. Greg Lehman
    ShareAttached is a simple one page exercise sheet to train the lower/mid trapezius (scapular retraction) and the serratus anterior.  The assumption is that these exercises, along with other training and physiotherapy (ART etc), will position the shoulder blade in a better position.  Ideally, avoiding forward tilt and a position that [...]

    Format:  Patient Handouts
    Topic:  Trunk, hip and knee motor control exercises to improve control of knee position

    SharePatients often experience anterior hip pain.  Physiotherapists and chiropractors will see this everyday and it is often challenging.  This pain can manifest during walking, squatting (a pinching sensation felt during a squat) or during different exercises. There are certainly many causes and one possible cause of this anterior hip pain [...]

  • Jewels from Juker (1998). Insight … by Dr. Greg Lehman
    ShareStu McGill was an author on this paper when it came out back in 1998.  At the time, I was one of Stu’s grad students putting electrodes onto anyone I could find for the price of Gyro sandwich.  I even burned (chemically and transiently) the thigh of a girlfriend at [...]
