Dr Jacques Valltton – Symposium Medicol-Hirslanden

In this video, Dr. Jacques Vallotton presents a minimally invasive surgical procedure to treat functional hallux limitus. Using an endoscopic tenolysis targeting the tendon of the flexor hallucis longus, the goal is to restore optimal mobility to the subtalar joint. This technique is particularly suitable for athletes experiencing painful locking of the big toe.

""The serve is both the most important and the most unhealthy movement in tennis.""

""Soft strings, soft racket, soft ball – that's the rule to protect your shoulder.""

""The player needs to be relaxed to avoid tensions that cause injuries.""
