Chat with Ruth Chimenti: 'the best exercise is the one your patient will do'

Here is my recent chat with Dr Ruth Chimenti about Achilles tendinopathy

We touched on some interesting topics, including

• Kinesiophobia and whether it changes with treatment
• Pain education for tendinopathy - what should it involve? does it work?
• Patient centred rehabilitation

Here is a link to some brand new trial data from Ruth's lab - she tested efficacy of pain education which is novel for Achilles tendinopathy.
