196: Stephanie Filbay - A New Era For ACL Rehabilitation

In this episode of The General Muscle Podcast, Lawrence is joined by Dr Stephanie Filbay, a researcher at the forefront of ACL rehabilitation. They discuss the evolving understanding of ACL injuries—what the ligament does, how it’s commonly injured, and why traditional surgical beliefs are being challenged. You’ll learn about the promising CROSS bracing protocol, how it stacks up against surgery and rehab alone, and what the latest research says about healing and long-term outcomes. They also dive into return-to-sport benchmarks, the growing role of physios in leading care, and what’s next in the world of ACL research. Thank you for listening!
