Pattela Femoral Syndrom — Sarasota, FL — Meilus Precision Therapy
PFS usually involves the patella tracking too far laterally. Traditional treatments stress strengthening the Vastus Medialis to pull the patella medially. Meilus Muscular Therapy lengthens the Vastus Lateralis to allow the patella to track correctly, quickly improving the condition.

Other considerations with PFS are shortened Hamstrings which will cause increased compression of the patella in the femoral grove. Lengthening the hamstrings helps with this. Foot pronation can also aggravate PFS, lengthening the Tibialis Anterior will help reduce foot pronation and improve patellar tracking.
