Description

Patients with ACL reconstructions are often anxious to return to sports…however, when to return is not always obvious and often second-guessed.  This recording will provide a blueprint of how to effectively make this decision with confidence. You’ll learn how testing should be performed, what tests and criteria should be used and why these criteria need to be established using a Functional Testing Algorithm (FTA).  This is a can’t-miss recording with practical takeaways you can apply right away!
