Physiotherapy Grande Prairie | How Do You Do Physiotherapy On Your Knees?

Jul 7

Do you suffer from knee pain? Don't worry we are here to help. Physiotherapy at Kinesis Physical Therapy Corp is an essential part of helping improve your day-to-day life, especially when it comes to your knees. This article will show you how some simple physiotherapy exercises can help.

The first thing to understand is what the problem might be. There are many different causes of knee pain, and they have different solutions! For instance, if your knees hurt when walking or running, it could be that your shoes are too tight or don’t fit well. If the pain seems worse at night and/or getting up in the morning, there could be problems with your joints or muscles. And if you notice a sudden change in symptoms recently (e.g., more intense pain), this may mean that something has changed - for example, weight gain can put extra pressure on your kneecaps; bending to pick something up can cause pain if you have arthritis.

Once you’ve identified the source of your knee pain, it’s time to start doing some physiotherapy exercises.
