Episode notes

Patello-femoral pain is a common, and at times, debilitating condition of the knee that can impact people across the lifespan. Professor Bill Vicenzino is a world leading expert on this topic and to that end I've enticed him onto the show to give us the ins and outs of this tricky condition. This is truly a must listen episode with a real pioneer of physiotherapy about a very common and important musculoskeletal condition.
