Knee pain is one of the most common areas of the body that we treat at Next Level Physio<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s especially common in our active population over the age of 25, but it equally affects people who aren\u2019t as active as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do people get knee pain?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You might have been told or thought that,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cwell, my knee pain is just a part of getting older and all that wear-and-tear,\u201d or, \u201cthat my knee pain is because of all the exercise I do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe you\u2019re thinking, \u201cI\u2019ve tried physical therapy for knee pain<\/a>, and it didn\u2019t work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, have you ever tried something in the past that didn\u2019t work the first time\u2026.then tried it another time, and it did?  <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But isn\u2019t every PT practice the same?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We get asked this question all the time, and we get it<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve worked at conventional PT practices where time was limited, patient volume was high, and we simply could not spend the time we needed to help clients get back to their favorite activities\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that\u2019s one reason why we\u2019re different at Next Level Physio- we provide one-on-one care<\/a> with our clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, did you know that many knee issues are caused by issues that are above or below<\/em> the knee?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s right, things that cause knee pain<\/a> often<\/p>\n\n\n\n

happen because of issues that don\u2019t start at the knee joint itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help change your perspective-<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think of the knee as the \u201cmiddle guy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The knee responds to forces from the top half of your body, your hips, your pelvis, and your thighs, but it also responds to forces at the shin bone, foot, ankle, and ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why finding and fixing the root cause<\/em> of your knee pain is important before<\/strong> deciding on and determining the right<\/em> treatment program to get you back to living life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s 3 reasons why getting your knee checked out by the right physiotherapy team can make all the difference in getting you back to what you love to do ASAP!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
