Lower Limb and Complex Cases

This workshop will feature two experienced clinicians sharing real-world cases and discussing how VALD technology supported assessment, monitoring, load management, and return-to-performance progression in challenging presentations.

Featured Speakers

Dr. Merv Travers
Merv will present a complex Achilles tendon rehabilitation case study and exploring how objective testing and ongoing monitoring strategies were used in long-term injury management where physiological and central drivers of pain were blurred, helping to direct progression, manage loading, and support return-to-function outcomes.

Ed Clarke

Ed will walk through a complex hamstring T-Junction rehabilitation case study in elite footballers, highlighting how VALD systems helped guide clinical decision-making, track progress, and support confident progression through rehab.

This session will focus on the two cases, covering Physiological and Psychological drivers of pain, key elements collected from subjective and objective examination, and discuss how data informed their management, with plenty of clinically relevant discussion around assessment, rehab progression, and return-to-performance strategies.

Looking forward to a great day of learning and discussion.
