Did you know that knee osteoarthritis affects one in every eight Canadian adults aged 55 or older? Did you know that the highest prevalence of knee OA is actually in the Maritime provinces? 🦵

It’s good to be familiar with the common signs and symptoms of knee osteoarthritis, as early diagnosis and intervention is key to better treatment outcomes!

Mild to moderate knee arthritis often responds well to conservative management involving exercise 👍 Beginning treatment and following a targeted exercise routine could prevent the need for knee replacement surgery!

If you suffer from any of these symptoms, have it assessed by a physiotherapist or chiropractor, and learn what you can be doing to slow the progression of knee osteoarthritis 🧑‍⚕️

Sometimes trying to keep all the posture cues straight can be a lot, even for us 😅

Just remember, your best posture is your next posture! Changing it up often is best practice for preventing postural-related aches and pains.

Have you been dealing with an ache or pain, but you’re not sure who you should see for treatment? 🤔

You’re not alone!

Chiropractors, physiotherapists, and massage therapists all and treat neck pain, back pain, and extremity pain, so it can be hard to decide where to go.

If you are suffering from general muscle tension and soreness, paying a visit to a massage therapist makes perfect sense!

However, as a basic rule, we encourage people suffering from new onset complaints, or something they are unsure of, to have them assessed and diagnosed by a chiropractor or physiotherapist. Identifying the problem is 🔑, and helps determine a treatment plan, which could then incorporate other health care providers, such as massage therapy.

While a chiropractor can treat a sprained ankle, and a physiotherapist can treat neck pain, we often recommend starting with a chiropractor for spinal complaints and extremity complaints be assessed by a physiotherapist.

Once again, this is a general rule for those who are unsure of who to see. Ultimately, if you have had good experiences with a particular practitioner or profession, then following your preference is totally reasonable!👌

Our final point may be the most important: Timeliness of the visit. It is shown that early treatment leads to the best outcomes. Seeing a provider ASAP can be subject to availability, and from there, they will make sure you are seeing the most suitable service provider for your complaint ✅
