Physiotherapy for knee pain involves a comprehensive approach aimed at addressing the underlying causes of discomfort and restoring optimal function to the knee joint. My tailored treatment plans may include a combination of manual therapy, exercise prescription, electrotherapy, and education to help you achieve lasting relief.
Manual therapy techniques, such as joint mobilization and soft tissue massage, are used to reduce pain and stiffness in the knee joint while improving flexibility and range of motion. These hands-on techniques help to release tight muscles and restore proper alignment, allowing for better movement and decreased pain.
Exercise prescription plays a crucial role in rehabilitating knee injuries and managing chronic knee pain. I will design a personalized exercise program focusing on strengthening the muscles around the knee, improving stability, and promoting proper biomechanics. By building strength and endurance, you can support the knee joint and reduce the risk of future injuries.
Electrotherapy modalities, such as ultrasound and electrical stimulation, may be utilized to complement manual therapy and exercise interventions. These modalities can help reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and promote tissue healing, accelerating your recovery process.
In addition to hands-on treatment and exercise, I will provide you with education on proper posture, biomechanics, and injury prevention strategies. By understanding how to care for your knees and avoid aggravating activities, you can take an active role in managing your condition and preventing recurrence.
