Mind over matter: can mental training speed up ACL recovery?

NCT ID NCT06991192

Summary

This study is testing whether adding psychological support to standard physical therapy exercises helps young athletes recover better from ACL knee surgery. It compares two groups: one where therapists receive special training to provide emotional support, and another with standard care. Both groups do the same exercises, but the test group also watches videos about mental skills for recovery. The goal is to see if this combined approach improves confidence to return to sports and overall knee function over 6 months.
