<p><img src= "https://clinedge.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/images/podcast/170.+BJJ+injuries+with+Dr+Lachlan+Giles.webp" alt="" /><br /> Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a popular grappling-based martial art that uses joint locks and chokes to subdue or submit opponents. It’s an intense, physically demanding sport with complex movements and submission techniques that involve a risk of injury, particularly to the knees, shoulders, elbows, neck, and lower back. It’s important for Physiotherapists and health professionals who treat BJJ athletes to understand the different mechanisms of injury, movements and positions athletes need to be able to perform, so they can develop successful rehabilitation programs, and safely and successfully return athletes to training. In this podcast, David Pope (APA Titled Musculoskeletal and Sports and Exercise Physio) explores BJJ injuries with Dr. Lachlan Giles—a BJJ black belt and world-class BJJ competitor, including 1st Place IBJJF Pan-Pacific Championship 2016 & 2017, 3rd place ADCC 2019 Open weight division and many more accomplishments. Lachlan is also a BJJ coach to top level competitors, including Levi Jones-Leary, Craig Jones before he moved to DDS, and a Physiotherapist with a PhD in knee pain and rehab. Lachlan shares his extensive experience treating and managing BJJ injuries, drawing from the research, as well as his clinical knowledge and personal experience as an elite grappler and BJJ coach. In this podcast, we discuss:</p> <ul> <li>The challenges physiotherapists face when treating BJJ athletes and how to adapt rehab programs for them.</li> <li>Common areas injured in BJJ.</li> <li>What commonly causes knee injuries, including LCL and ACL sprains, in BJJ.</li> <li>Different positions athletes need to get into in BJJ, why it’s important to understand these positions, and how you can use this to guide your rehab and return to sport.</li> <li>Strength vs flexibility vs conditioning? Which factors are critical in injury recovery, prevention and performance?</li> <li>Practical strategies for modifying training and load to allow injured athletes to continue training safely.</li> <li>The role of neck strengthening in protecting against neck injuries from chokes and takedowns.</li> <li>How to structure a safe return-to-play progression for knee, back, and rib injuries.</li> <li>Key factors that impact athlete recovery. When athletes can continue training, when and how to modify training and when to recommend complete rest. The impact of training style, intensity, and mindset on injury risk and longevity in the sport. How older athletes can adjust their game to have fewer injuries while continuing to train and compete. Listen to this podcast now to have a better understanding of BJJ injuries, rehabilitation, and strategies to help athletes successfully get back to or continue training and competing in BJJ.</li> </ul> <p><a href= "https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/534069/151050360588339197/share"> <img src= "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/clinedge/images/buttons/Podcast_handout_button_950W.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <p><a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/physioedge/id454714085?mt=2&uo=4&at=11lPIR"> <img src= "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/clinedge/images/buttons/Listen+on+Apple+podcasts.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://overcast.fm/+HZ9b9x-g"><img src= "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/clinedge/images/buttons/Listen+on+Overcast.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <p><a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/1ctsMhjgpYyhM4LTbFV4C4"><img src= "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/clinedge/images/buttons/Listen+on+Spotify.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <h2>Get free access to the "Tricky tendons" infographic series</h2> <p>Unlock the secrets of successful tendinopathy assessment and treatment with this free infographic series for therapists.<br /> <a href= "https://resources.clinicaledge.co/trickytendonsinfographics"><img src="https://clinedge.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/runningrepairs/2024rro/Trickytendonsinfographics/TT_Infographics_freeaccess_900.webp" alt="" /></a></p> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/sign-up">Improve your musculoskeletal and sports injury assessment & treatment results with a free trial Clinical Edge membership</a></li> <li><a href= "https://resources.clinicaledge.co/trickytendonsinfographics">Click here to register and receive immediate access to the Tricky tendons infographic series</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/freeachillesvideos">Free Achilles tendinopathy video series with Tom Goom</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/about">David Pope at Clinical Edge</a></li> <li><a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/physioedge/id454714085?mt=2&uo=4&at=11lPIR"> Download and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes</a></li> <li><a href="https://overcast.fm/+HZ9b9x-g">Download the podcast in Overcast</a></li> <li><a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/1ctsMhjgpYyhM4LTbFV4C4">Listen to the podcast on Spotify</a></li> <li><a href="https://submeta.io/">Dr Lachlan Giles</a></li> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/davidkpope">David Pope on Twitter</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/about">David Pope & why I started Clinical Edge</a></li> <li><a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/physioedge/id454714085?mt=2&uo=4&at=11lPIR"> Review the podcast on iTunes</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/blog">Infographics by Clinical Edge</a></li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Chapters: </strong></p> <ul> <li data-prosemirror-content-type="node" data-prosemirror-node-name="paragraph" data-prosemirror-node-block= "true" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">04:40 -

<p><img src= "https://clinedge.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/images/podcast/168.+How+to+explain+shoulder+pain+to+patients+with+Jo+Gibson.webp" alt="" /></p> <p>How do the terms we use influence a patient’s understanding of their shoulder pain, their recovery expectations, and even their treatment choices? In this episode of the Physio Edge Shoulder Success Podcast, Jo Gibson (Upper Limb Rehabilitation Specialist Physio), explores the power of language in physiotherapy and how our explanations can either support or hinder a patient’s progress.</p> <p>Drawing on research and real-world clinical experience, Jo discusses a compelling case study:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Persistent shoulder pain after multiple treatments</strong> – A patient with years of ongoing pain, failed surgeries, and various diagnoses struggles to make sense of their condition. Despite normal imaging, they avoid activity and seek repeated treatments, caught in a cycle of fear and uncertainty.</li> </ul> <p>Jo unpacks key questions around patient communication:</p> <ul> <li>How do diagnostic labels like "impingement" or "rotator cuff tear" shape patient beliefs?</li> <li>Why do patients often focus on the most negative aspects of their diagnosis?</li> <li>How can we explain shoulder pain in a way that reassures rather than reinforces fear?</li> </ul> <p>You’ll also gain practical strategies to:</p> <ul> <li>Explore what patients understand about their diagnosis and how it influences their behavior.</li> <li>Use language that encourages confidence and movement rather than avoidance.</li> <li>Identify non-verbal cues that indicate uncertainty or distress in your patients.</li> </ul> <p>With evidence-based insights and actionable communication tips, this episode will help you refine your patient interactions and improve rehabilitation outcomes.</p> <p>Listen now to discover how small changes in your language can make a big impact on your patients’ recovery.</p> <h2>Click on an image below to access these free resources from Jo Gibson and Clinical Edge</h2> <p><a href="https://resources.clinicaledge.co/shoulderax"><img src= "https://clinedge.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/images/Shoulder+Success/2024launch/2024ssslaunch/sss2024plc/Shoulder+detective+free+videos+1400.webp" alt="" /></a></p> <p><a href= "https://resources.clinicaledge.co/shoulderassessment"><img src= "https://clinedge.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/images/Shoulder+Success/2024launch/2024shoulderaxinfographics/Free+Shoulder+ax+infographics+1400.webp" alt="" /></a></p> <p><strong>The handout for this podcast consists of a transcript associated with this podcast.</strong></p> <p><a href= "https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/534069/146800425269462552/share"> <img src= "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/clinedge/images/buttons/Podcast_handout_button_950W.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <p><a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/physioedge/id454714085?mt=2&uo=4&at=11lPIR"> <img src= "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/clinedge/images/buttons/Listen+on+Apple+podcasts.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://overcast.fm/+HZ-PR1Rc"><img src= "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/clinedge/images/buttons/Listen+on+Overcast.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <p><a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/1ctsMhjgpYyhM4LTbFV4C4"><img src= "https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/clinedge/images/buttons/Listen+on+Spotify.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <h2>Shoulder: Steps to Success online course with Jo Gibson</h2> <p>Improve your assessment and treatment of shoulder pain with the Shoulder: Steps to Success online course with Jo Gibson, now available for enrolment at <a href= "https://www.clinicaledge.co/shouldersuccess">clinicaledge.co/shouldersuccess</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/shouldersuccess"><img src= "https://clinedge.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/images/Shoulder+Success/2021launch/salespage/SSS2021Cover950withtext.jpg" alt="" /></a></p> <h2>Free trial Clinical Edge membership</h2> <p>Use a fresh approach to your musculoskeletal and sports injury treatment with a free trial Clinical Edge membership at <a href= "https://www.clinicaledge.co/freetrial">clinicaledge.co/freetrial</a></p> <h2>Links associated with this episode:</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://resources.clinicaledge.co/shoulderax">Free video series - How to be a shoulder detective: Solving acute shoulder pain with Jo Gibson</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/shoulder">Get your access to the free video series “Frozen shoulder assessment & treatment” with Jo Gibson</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/shouldersuccess">Improve your shoulder assessment & treatment with the Shoulder: Steps to Success online course with Jo Gibson</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/freetrial">Improve your confidence and clinical reasoning with a free trial Clinical Edge membership</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/clinicaledge/">Join Jo Gibson live on Facebook & ask your shoulder related questions every Monday</a></li> <li><a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/physioedge/id454714085?mt=2&uo=4&at=11lPIR"> Download and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes</a></li> <li><a href="https://overcast.fm/+HZ-PR1Rc">Download the podcast now using the best podcast app currently in existence - Overcast</a></li> <li><a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/1ctsMhjgpYyhM4LTbFV4C4">Listen to the podcast on Spotify</a></li> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/ShoulderGeek1">Jo Gibson on Twitter</a></li> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/davidkpope">Let David know what you liked about this podcast on Twitter</a></li> <li><a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/physioedge/id454714085?mt=2&uo=4&at=11lPIR"> Review the podcast on iTunes</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.clinicaledge.co/blog">Infographics by Clinical Edge</a></li> </ul>
