STA134 ’Buttock Pain Case History’ with guests Emer Acton & Dr. Sarah Rollins

Part 3 of this month's 'Focus on the Hip' is a follow up to Ep.133, in which guest Dr. Sarah Rollins of Pure Sports Medicine & the Ministry of Defence (MoD) returns, this time accompanied by Sports Physio Emer Acton to together talk about a real life posterior hip case which they saw in clinic literally that day!

Emer Acton is a clinical specialist MSK physiotherapist who works with Dr. Rollins for the MoD, but is about to embark on a new role with McLaren F1 Race Team as their Senior Specialist Physiotherapist. A big fan of the 'hands on' approach, Emer discusses the process she followed with Dr. Rollins to diagnose what the issue was with a patient who had presented himself to them that day with a rather strange combination of posterior hip symptoms that initially had them both a little stumped. 

This episode is a wonderful example of clinical reasoning, and indeed something we may well start doing regularly on the Sports Therapy Association Podcast. There is so much to gain in this episode, the chance to listen to the step by step mutidiscipinary approach that two such highly experienced professionals followed in order to ascertain what was indeed causing the patient's symptoms. Enjoy!
