Rotator cuff repairs may be one of the more common surgeries in orthopedic and sports physical therapy settings. Yet, there seems to be absolutely no consensus on what postoperative guidelines we should follow.

On this episode, I’m joined by Amee Seitz from Northwestern University to discuss some of what we know about how fast or slow we should go after rotator cuff repair.

Anterior shoulder pain is common in overhead athletes and baseball players. This pain often comes from the biceps, but may not be the root of the issue.

I know many people want to open their own clinic one day. It's a great dream to build something the way you want.

I've been really impressed watching Josh Funk, from Rehab 2 Perform, do just this from afar.

R2P is doing a great job focusing on clinical care and the development of their staff, while still working in an insurance-based model.

On this episode, we talk about this model and how R2P sticks to these core values.

Knee valgus is something that occurs normally at the knee, but may put the knee in a disadvantageous position when performed without control.

In this episode of the Sports Physical Therapy Podcast, Steve Dischiavi and I discuss the concept of controlling this dynamic knee valgus through tension. He also introduces us to the concept of pelvic pronation and how this can be incorporated into rehabilitation and injury prevention programs.

The act of pitching a baseball involved a complicated transfer of energy through the kinetic chain.


However, until recently, this was not documented and quantified. In this week's episode of The Sports Physical Therapy Podcast, I talk with biomechanist Arnel Aguinaldo, who has recently published several articles on the energy flow during the baseball pitch, with implications on velocity development and potential injury risk.

Working in the pro sports model can teach you a lot about teamwork and providing an exceptional service to the athlete. That's why PT's that make the transition from working within professional sports often do well in their own private practice.

In this episode of the Sports PT Podcast, Tim Vidale shares his experience and some of the things that made him successful.

Tim is also the chair of the DEI committee of the AASPT, so we also talk about the objectives of the committee and his vision on the future of our profession.

Femoroacetabular impingement of the hip, or FAI, is a diagnosis that has really grown over the last several years and become more common.

As rehabilitation specialists, we often work with these patients prior to surgery, as well as after surgical intervention.

In the epsiode, I talk with Mike Reiman from Duke University about FAI, including a bit on the history, diagnosis, nonoperative treatment, and surgical procedure.
