Mirror gait retraining for the treatment of patellofemoral pain in female runners.
(2012-12)
BACKGROUND:
Abnormal hip mechanics are often implicated in female runners with patellofemoral pain. We sought to evaluate a simple gait retraining technique, using a full-length mirror, in female runners with patellofemoral ...
Lower Extremity Strength and Mechanics During Jumping in Women With Patellofemoral Pain
(2009)
Context: Lower extremity (LE) weakness might be associated with altered mechanics during weight bearing in subjects with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Objective: To analyze LE strength, mechanics, and the association ...
The Effect of a Hip Strengthening Program on Mechanics during Running and Single Leg Squatting
(2011-07)
STUDY DESIGN: Block randomized controlled trial. OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether a strengthening and movement education program, targeting the hip abductors and hip external rotators, alters hip mechanics during running ...
