Talking Tendons Podcast: Something IS Happening in the Tendon! Collagen Turnover in People with Achilles Tendinopathy

Firstly, welcome back to “Talking Tendons’ in 2019!

Understanding how tendon recovers from injury and adapts to load is so important and has huge implications on how we manage tendons and the education and advice that we provide patients. I am starting off this year’s podcast discussing a relatively new study providing insights into the collagen turnover in healthy tendons and those with tendinopathy, adding critical knowledge to what we know about tendon collagen adaptation over time. 

Also wanted to mention a couple of face to face courses I will be presenting in Melbourne and Sydney in the coming months. Firstly in Melbourne on Saturday 18th May followed by Sydney on Saturday 24th August - visit the links below for bookings!
