Video Summary
Brett DeGoyer discusses iliotibial band syndrome, commonly affecting runners and athletes involved in impact exercises. The iliotibial band runs along the outer thigh, connecting the pelvis to the tibia. Diagnosis often involves Ober's test, which identifies pain along the outer thigh and knee. Treatment options include muscle energy techniques, deep tissue massage, and facilitated positional release, focusing on relaxation and stretching of the iliotibial band. Consent and patient education are crucial, particularly regarding potential bruising and the necessity of at-home stretching to aid recovery over weeks.
