🌟 Starting a Mastermind Group on Tommy John Injury Rehabilitation! 🌟

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be forming a Mastermind Group focused on Tommy John injury rehabilitation. This group will be limited to 10 students with only 2 cohorts per year.

It's open to DPT, AT, and Chiropractic students, as well as early-career clinicians looking to deepen their understanding of the evidence surrounding these injuries and effective rehabilitation strategies in professional sports. There’s still so much to learn!

Who is this Mastermind for?
Athletic Trainers, Physical Therapists, Physical Therapy Students, and Chiropractors.

This Mastermind Is For You IF You Are...
✔️ Lacking the time to read or analyze research related to UCL injuries and rehabilitation solutions.
✔️ Struggling to keep up with the latest literature on surgical techniques and recovery protocols.
✔️ Unsure about postoperative care and what to do on the first day after surgery.
✔️ Lacking clarity on how to structure rehabilitation sessions for specific baseball-related injuries.
✔️ Uncertain about how to create sport-specific protocols tailored to baseball players, especially after UCL surgery or injury.
✔️ Limited in your understanding of biologics (e.g., PRP, stem cells) and their potential benefits for athletes.
✔️ Not confident enough to treat baseball players, leading to avoidance of these cases.

If you’re interested in joining, please comment below or message me the word “UCL,” and I’ll send you the details to add you to the waiting list.
Additionally, as I am bilingual, I will be opening a cohort for Latin American students as well!

🩺🔬 Descubriendo el Potencial de Sanación de la Reconstrucción del Ligamento Cruzado Anterior: Un Año de Transformación 🔬🩺

Estudios han revelado una cronología fascinante: aproximadamente de 6 a 12 meses después de la reconstrucción, las fibras de colágeno recuperan su organización, reflejando la apariencia del LCA íntegro bajo el microscopio. Esta restauración representa un avance significativo y una mejora en la integridad estructural.

Si bien ciertos aspectos de la estructura del colágeno, como los pliegues y la alineación paralela durante la fase de proliferación, se restauran parcialmente, es importante reconocer que la composición diversa de las fibras de colágeno con diámetros variables, presente en el LCA íntegro, NO se replica por completo.

Pero aquí viene lo emocionante: durante la fase de ligamentización, la articulación de la rodilla reconstruida experimenta una transformación notable. Las propiedades mecánicas experimentan mejoras significativas. Este proceso gradual continúa a lo largo del año, alcanzando su máximo rendimiento aproximadamente UN AÑO después de la reconstrucción.

Comprender esta cronología transformadora es esencial. Permite a pacientes, profesionales de la salud e investigadores desarrollar protocolos de rehabilitación integrales y establecer expectativas realistas para la recuperación y ganancias funcionales a largo plazo.

A la luz de estudios recientes, parece que retrasar el retorno a los deportes (RTS, por sus siglas en inglés) para que se alinee con la integración y maduración del injerto disminuye el riesgo de lesion.

🚨Por lo tanto, no se recomienda el RTS hasta 9 a 12 meses después de la cirugía, una vez que todas las limitaciones físicas y déficits de rendimiento se hayan normalizado.🚨
