🦵 Take control of your knee pain! 🦵

Knee pain doesn’t have to slow you down! By addressing muscle imbalances and movement patterns, you can regain strength and mobility. Here’s how:

1️⃣ Strengthen your hips and quads – Stronger muscles provide better knee support and reduce stress on the joint.
2️⃣ Stretch tight muscles – Loosening up tight hip flexors, quads, and calves can improve movement and decrease knee strain.
3️⃣ Optimize foot mechanics – Proper foot alignment and arch support prevent excess stress on your knees.
4️⃣ Use manual therapy techniques – Hands-on therapy helps relieve pain and improve mobility.
5️⃣ Gradually return to activity – Avoid overloading your knees by easing back into exercise with the right rehab plan.

💪 Strengthen & Stretch – Balance is key! A mix of strength and flexibility training helps keep knee pain away.

👣 Foot Mechanics Matter – The way your foot moves impacts your knee! Custom exercises or orthotics may help.

👐 How Manual Therapy Helps?
Physical therapy techniques like:
✔️ Myofascial release – Reduces muscle tension and improves mobility.

🚶‍♀️ Is knee pain stopping you in your tracks? 🚶‍♂️

You don’t have to live with discomfort! If you’re struggling with knee pain, it might be Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS)—a common issue caused by muscle imbalances, poor movement patterns, or joint misalignment.

💡 What is PFPS?
PFPS, often called “runner’s knee,” is pain around the kneecap due to stress on the joint. It can happen from overuse, improper biomechanics, or weak supporting muscles.

😣 Why Does It Hurt?
When your knee isn’t tracking properly, it creates friction, leading to pain and inflammation. Weak hips, tight muscles, and poor movement patterns make it worse over time.

✅ The Good News!
PFPS isn’t permanent! The right combination of strengthening, flexibility, and movement correction can help restore pain-free function. At optimumrehab Physical Therapy, we focus on targeted rehab exercises to get you back to doing what you love—without knee pain holding you back!
