In this "shortie" episode Erica discusses different ways she assesses the knee.\xa0

\xa0

There are 3 parts to the knee joint and assessing a movement pattern that takes into account all these regions is key.\xa0

\xa0

It's not all about patellar tracking, right?\xa0

\xa0

More often than not, one part of the knee is being compressed because of some overactivity in the muscles surrounding it.\xa0

The main takeaway is that evaluating these regions takes precision and it's worth it to spend a few extra minutes doing so. Your patients will appreciate the specificity.
