Shaffer regarding a publication from Physiotherapy Theory and Practice titled, “Physical therapy management of a patient with persistent groin pain after total hip arthroplasty and iliopsoas tenotomy: a case report.” This episode contains information that will be interesting for practitioners who want to explore the topics of manual therapy and clinical reasoning as they relate to a potentially unique patient with chronic pain post-total hip arthroplasty.
