Jumper’s Knee

Do you have pain on the front of your knee? Does it hurt after hiking or running or when squatting and climbing stairs? This program was designed by a Doctor of Physical Therapy and will teach you the best exercises for alleviating pain on the front of the knee due to irritation of the patellar tendon.

$7.99

Patellar tendinopathy is characterized by pain at the anterior (front) aspect of the knee, especially near the inferior (bottom) pole of the kneecap, that is worsened as knee extensor (quadriceps) demand increases. This condition is more common in males and in sports such as basketball, volleyball, football and tennis as these activities require the patellar tendon to repetitively store and release energy. When the tendon is challenged beyond its capacity or not allowed sufficient rest, the risk of developing symptoms increases.

Although the development and subsequent rehabilitation of patellar tendinopathy can be frustrating and lead to time off from sport, it does appear as though exercise, especially a progressive resistance training program, can be effective in restoring tendon health.

If you have pain just below the kneecap on the patellar tendon, this program will teach you exercises that will improve the health of the tendon, reduce pain and improve your overall function.
