Worried your knee pain will never get better?

Most people think that when they get knee pain it will just “ease off” and go away on its own.
That if they rest it and avoid walking for a while, that they will wake up one morning and the pain with have “magically” gone. But 6 months later the knee pain is still there and often much worse than it was when it first started.
If this sounds like you, the fastest way to get your independence back is to schedule your visit with us today.

It's NOT “Just Your Age” and Something CAN be Done!

Why does knee pain go on longer than it should? Well, with so much conflicting advice, so many options and everyone more than happy and willing to put their 2 pence into how to fix knee pain, it’s really easy to get confused about the best way forward.

You see, you might believe that your knee pain started because of twisting awkwardly or that extra round of golf that “over did it”, when actually it’s the product of years and years of poor posture, which have caused your knee muscles to weaken, the joint to stiffen and become poorly aligned, and the awkward twist or that extra round of golf was just the EFFECT of that.

If you don’t know what you’re doing knee pain can persist for years and sadly instead of fixing the underlying knee problem, people learn to accept it and live with it as “part of life” or put it down to “their age”. Woefully this means they accept giving up the activities they love – such as long walks with friends and family, kneeling to play with children/grandchildren or hobbies like golf and tennis.

If You Are Living with Knee Pain, Here Are 7 reasons It Could Be Lasting Longer Than It Should:

If any of these things have happened to you, then we would love to hear from you.

Here Are 4 Things You Can Do Today to Help Actively Beat Knee Pain:

1. TAKE ACTION

It’s time to make the conscious decision to make your life better and get the help you so desperately need. Making the decision today will have a huge knock on effect to your mental well-being and will make you feel in-control of your knee pain and your future… Rather than your knee pain controlling you…

2. AVOID PROLONGED PERIODS OF SITTING OR REST

One of the worst things you can do for knee pain is rest or sit for long periods of time. Too much rest makes your joints stiffen up and your muscles get tight and weak. Then when you try to stand up your knee locks up due to the stiff and weakened joint. It would really help if you had the appropriate strengthening exercises for better alignment, alongside hands-on treatment, to get you active and healthy as soon as possible.

3. GET THE RIGHT EXERCISES FOR YOU

Exercises for knee pain are not something that can be taught from a sheet of paper, watched on YouTube or searched through Google. Any health professional that knows their onions, will advise you that any exercises for knee pain should be ‘prescribed’ by a qualified, skilled and highly trained Physiotherapist. This is because exercises should be tailor made to help you and your knee. Not one knee is the same. So generic exercises will not work.

4. GET PROPER “HANDS-ON” PHYSIOTHERAPY!

At the end of the day, all of the above will help you feel better, and will help you reduce pain, but very often it will keep coming back again and again. Only by committing to attend to Physiotherapy sessions will you actually experience any long-lasting results. If your knee pain is impacting your way of life, your job, your social life and ultimately – your happiness – it’s time to take action.
