ACL Rehabilitation Reimagined: Functional Criteria, Safer Return to Sport, and Non-Operative Paths

Modern ACL rehabilitation is moving beyond rigid timelines toward function-based criteria that prioritize strength symmetry, neuromuscular control, and movement quality. Strong evidence shows that delaying return to sport until at least 9 months after injury or reconstruction can substantially reduce the risk of re-injury, especially in young and athletic populations. While progressive, task-specific exercise remains the cornerstone of recovery, research also highlights that non-operative management—with structured rehabilitation—can be a successful long-term option for approximately two-thirds of carefully selected patients. This episode explores the science guiding safer decisions, individualized rehab, and smarter return-to-sport strategies.
