[Case Studies] A real case of shoulder instability: lessons from the clinic with Ellie Richardson
Description
In this episode with Ellie Richardson, we explore a case study on a real patient of hers who presented to the clinic with shoulder instability. We discuss:
- The importance of the patient’s subjective history
- Evidence-based outcome measures used in shoulder instability
- Gaps in current practice in treatment of shoulder instability
- Strength and conditioning terminology and it’s use in shoulder instability
This episode is closely tied to Ellie’s case study she did with us. With case studies, you can see how top clinicians manage real-world cases and apply their strategies to get better results with your patients.
