Exploring hip and groin pain. A Practical Masterclass

with Bodine Ledden.

This practical workshop will provide an up-to-date evidence-based approach to assessing and managing a range of hip and groin pain presentations. This masterclass will explore the pathoetiology and common clinical signs relating to hip and groin pain to assist you in directing an appropriate and effective management plan. This workshop will cover a systematic approach to differentiate intra-articular and extra-articular pathology using a thorough physical assessment screen. Participants will take away some new assessment, treatment, and exercise skills to apply in clinical practice along with an appreciation for how to integrate manual therapy and exercise to support recovery and return to function.
