    Frequency of Therapy?

    Taping
    Hi guys - I've been going to the physio for about 7-8 weeks.

    I've got mild Patello Femoral Syndrome and have been going to the physio 1-2 times a week for manipulative therapy.

    From strapping, I have no pain while running, but I know the problem is far from fixed.

    Is there a need for me to be visiting the physio this regularly?

    The sounds appropriate. Some might argue more? Depends on the acuteness of the injury, the irritability and your requirement for a fast solution or not.

    Must have Kinesiology Taping DVD
    Hi,

    Some might say that it should be a lot better by now...

    Have you had closed-chain glut medius strengthening exercises given to you yet? It is often implicated in patellofemoral dysfunction.

    However, if your condition is worse than you state, often you may need to see the physio that often...
