ACL Rehabilitation – Acute Management After Surgery
If you have never heard about BFR therapy and you work in a private clinic or with patients after injuries, fractures, joint replacements, with elderly but relatively healthy patients or even athletes you should definitely check this out! Its a way of gaining your muscle strength faster!

ACL Rehabilitation – Introduction
This course contains lots of detailed, practical advice. It in particular stresses the importance of adhering to principles rather than rigid time frames when designing an ACL rehab program. The course tutor, Luke O'Brien, is an excellent communicator!
