Complete Physio Podcast

This discussion looks at hamstring injuries, especially proximal tendon avulsions, and when surgical input is needed. We also cover how decisions differ between younger and older patients for meniscal tears, ACL reconstruction, and joint replacement. The conversation moves through real-world examples of injury patterns, rehabilitation, and how timing affects outcomes. You’ll also hear insights on patient-specific knee replacements, robotic and computer-assisted techniques, and the anterior approach to hip replacement, a method that helps reduce muscle damage and improve recovery. We talk about realistic recovery times, common risks such as sciatic nerve irritation and dislocation, and how surgeons decide when the “window of opportunity” for surgery is right.

Men often experience urinary incontinence after prostate surgery due to muscle loss around the bladder and urethra.

ACL reconstruction has come a long way over the past two decades, and this discussion explores how surgical techniques, graft materials, and rehabilitation methods have evolved. Our expert physiotherapists and orthopaedic specialists explain the options between hamstring, patella tendon, and allograft reconstructions, and how factors like age, joint stability, and tissue quality guide treatment choices. Learn about the latest approaches to graft alignment, fixation methods, and post-operative physiotherapy that help patients regain confidence and knee function.

Strength training often gets pushed aside by runners, but it can make a real difference to both performance and injury risk. In this video, Complete Physio physiotherapists explain how to fit strength work into a running schedule, even during marathon training.
