A pain in the knee
Although knee problems can be due to a sudden injury - such as a fall or a sports injury - most are the result of gradual wear and tear. The wearing of joints, ligaments and tendons around the knee is mainly due to biomechanical factors, such as alignment, tracking, muscle tightness, weakness and imbalance. By improving the alignment, strength and stability of the knee you can decrease your pain and greatly reduce the progressive wear and tear of aging. Such pain can be resolved by a programme of remedial treatment and exercises, following a thorough assessment. Physiofocus, Tel: 6734 8151.
