In this episode, Principal Research Fellow at Latrobe Sport and Exercise Medicine Research Centre, Dr Joanne Kemp PhD, talks about hip pain treatment and research.

Today, Joanne talks about the common causes of hip pain, the difference between men's and women's hip pain, and the outcomes for patients that "wait and see". How can PTs design and conduct evidence-based treatment programs?

Hear about treating overachievers, referring out and using other treatments, and the upcoming Fourth WCSPT, all on today's episode of The Healthy, Wealthy & Smart Podcast.

Key Takeaways

"It's important that patients understand that exercise is good for them and is not going to cause damage."
"With any strengthening program, you only need to do it 2 or 3 times a week to be effective."
"It's probably going to take 3 months for our rehabilitation programs to reach their full effect."
"If you don't get it right the first time, and if it takes you a little while to find your space, that's actually okay, because it's about the long journey, and you'll get there eventually."
"Don't stress about failure. It's about what you learn from that failure and how you adapt and change what you do."
