This 2-hour webinar will provide participants with the most updated clinical and evidence-based approach about evaluation, differential diagnosis and management of tendinopathy-related pain. The first part of the lecture will present updated review on pathophysiological and mechanisms of tendinopathy-related pain.
A clinical reasoning to identify the predominant source of pain and to determine if a real tendinopathy exists will be discussed applied to two of the most prevalent tendinopathies: supraspinatus and patellar tendon.
The lecture will also include a comprehensive presentation on the clinical reasoning about management interventions such as exercise prescription and manual therapy/needling interventions.

Come and find out why exercise and manual therapy work for tendinopathies, integrating all interventions into the central nervous system.

Brief schedule

• Tendinopathy-Related Pain: Updated on Mechanisms and Pathogenesis
• Exercise Prescription for Tendinopathy-Related Pain: Progression, Loading
• Clinical Reasoning for Supraspinatus Tendinopathy-Related Pain
• Clinical Reasoning for Patellar Tendinopathy-Related Pain
