Wouldn't it be amazing if an ACL tear can heal on its own without surgery?

For sure, and there have been recent discussions about the Cross-Bracing Protocol and its impact on these injuries.

But is this too good to be true?

In this episode, we discuss the emerging cross-bracing protocol for non-operative ACL treatment, exploring its potential benefits and drawbacks. There is some skepticism about the protocol's effectiveness, but we discuss the importance of patient selection and quality of life considerations in treatment decisions.

Good timing on this episode. I just released my brand new online course, The ACL Rehab Masterclass: A Complete Guide to Criteria-Based Rehabilitation, Testing, and Return to Sport. I teamed up with Dan Pope and Kevin Coughlin to share the exact system we use at Champion.
