Knee Pain
The knee is a hinge joint that allows the bones to swing in an arc, similar to the hinge on a door. Unless there is direct trauma to the knee or arthritis, the source of the knee pain is usually found in the lower leg or the hip.
Find the Cause
The solution to physcial issues is finding the cause of the issue. Pain and problems do not just happen, something is causing it. Some people just ignore the problem hoping it will go away, others mask the issue with pain killers, and some realize they can live pain free and do something about it.
If you are ready to find out what you can do to live pain free we are offering a free 30 minute consultation with a licensed physical therapist to investigate your issue, answer questions, discuss options and find the solution to your problem.

Knee Pain Solutions
Due to the knee being a hinge joint, the tendons and muscles around it are actually what give the knee its stability rather than the bony structure of the joint itself. The muscles hold the knee in place and ensure it moves correctly through its range of motion. When the muscles fail to do their job, the tendons can be called on to do more than their fair share. If the load is too much for just the tendon, the tendon can fray (partial tear) or sever (full tear).
If a full tendon tear is the result of the injury there is no way around it, surgery may be necessary. But, for the vast majority of other knee injuries, pain or limitations, Physical Therapy is an excellent solution that can get you back to 100%.
How does Health Motion treat and rehabilitate knees? Through a thorough evaluation of the entire lower extremity from the hips on down. Physical therapists at Health Motion will locate the cause of the knee pain no matter where it is coming from. This may mean we have to repair a partially torn tendon; and yes, there are non-surgical treatments we use to repair tendons. If we find old scar tissue from years and years ago that needs to be cleaned out we have non-surgical procedures for this as well. Muscles can be strengthened, coordination and flexibility increased, and we can use many other treatments to handle your knee pain and get you back to the things you love doing.
