FEMALE ATHLETES AND ACL TEARS
Like I said before Long Island is a hot bed for sports and especially with female sports now more than ever. Recently two very talented female athletes in my neighborhood have been taken down (but not out) from an ACL tears. From the article below you will read how, and why female athletes have the highest risk for ACL tears, and from the pictures (see above) how when quick starts, stops, and torqueing of the knee (excluding direct trauma) without the support of the surrounding knee muscles leave the ACL in a very vulnerable position. If you have a high level female athlete don't take chances have Apex thoroughly assess, and make the neurological corrections between the brain and muscles that support the knee. http://www.momsteam.com/health-safety/muscles-joints-bones/knee/acl-injuries-in-female-athletes
