Knee pain affects millions of people worldwide, impacting daily activities, mobility, and overall quality of life. At Bodyright Massage, we recognise the significance of addressing knee discomfort promptly and effectively. First, it’s important to understand the reasons behind the appearance of the most common causes of knee pain:
- Osteoarthritis: The most prevalent cause of knee pain, osteoarthritis occurs due to wear and tear of the joint cartilage. It leads to inflammation, stiffness, and pain, especially during movement.
- Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (Runner’s Knee): Often seen in athletes and active individuals, this condition involves pain around the kneecap. Overuse, poor biomechanics, and muscle imbalances contribute to its development.
- Ligament Injuries: Tears or strains in the knee ligaments (such as the anterior cruciate ligament or ACL) result from sudden twists, falls, or sports-related trauma.
- Meniscus Tears: The menisci are C-shaped cartilage pads in the knee joint. Tears can occur due to sudden movements or degeneration over time.
- Tendonitis: Inflammation of the tendons around the knee, commonly affecting the patellar tendon (patellar tendonitis) or the quadriceps tendon.
Our skilled therapists specialise in remedial and sports massage, offering targeted relief for knee pain. With our innovative practices we address specific muscular imbalances, promoting healing and reducing pain. We can also channel our efforts through designed to enhance performance, prevent injuries, and aid recovery. Through deep tissue massage, we also target deeper layers of tissue to alleviate tension and discomfort. Another way in which we help patients release common pain in their knees is dry needling, a technique to release trigger points and improve muscle function.
It’s impossible to have a normal day with knee pain, as it’s a part of your body that you use every time at almost everything you do daily. Ready to experience relief from knee pain? Book an appointment with Bodyright Massage and take the first step toward better mobility and well-being.
