SPORTS INJURY UPDATE – PATELLOFEMORAL PAIN
Patellofemoral syndrome describes the pain in and around the knee cap (patella) which is associated with damage or inflammation to structures of the patellofemoral joint. It is usually the result of the knee cap not tracking smoothly, which can be caused by many factors such as abnormal biomechanics and/or overactive or weakness of key hip and/or knee muscles. Physiotherapy treatment includes identifying and correcting biomechanical issues, patella taping, strengthening underactive muscles and/or lengthening overactive tight tissues.
GM SPORTING CLUB UPDATE
GM Physiotherapy proudly supports sporting clubs within the local community.
Noranda ECU Football Club finished runners up in the WAAFL E3 league. With a great run all the way to the grand finals, the boys were beaten at the last hurdle by Cockburn Lakes.
