Healed ACL 💥
Great post by .sportsphysio:
"Another great result for our client, who initially tore her ACL playing soccer - felt a pop, knee gave way, and MRI confirmed a full rupture. She was told by a specialist she’d never return to sport without a reconstruction.
Instead, we followed a 12-week weight-bearing bracing protocol (BLEX) with a knee extension block, alongside progressive strength, balance, and control training.
12-week MRI result: “Healing of the anterior cruciate with normally aligned ligament fibres (ACLOAS grade 1)”
✅ Pivot shift = negative
✅ Lachman Test = negative
A stable, healed ACL - no surgery required."
If you want to learn about conservative ACL treatment, make sure to watch both lectures by Kieran Richardson at 😊👍
