Knee Pain Treatment
Knee Pain Treatment with Osteopathy
Knee pain can significantly affect your ability to move comfortably and live an active life. Whether caused by injury, overuse, arthritis, or biomechanical imbalances, persistent knee pain can reduce your mobility and limit your quality of life. At Naturopath Osteopath Clinic, we offer osteopathic treatment that targets the root cause of your knee discomfort, helping to restore balance and function.
Understanding Knee Pain
The knee is one of the most complex joints in the body, involving bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. Any misalignment, strain, or injury in these structures can lead to chronic knee pain. Conditions such as osteoarthritis, patellar tracking disorder, meniscus tears, ligament sprains, or tendinitis are all common causes.
How Osteopathy Helps Knee Pain
Osteopathy is a gentle manual therapy that restores joint mobility, relieves soft tissue tension, and improves circulation. For knee pain, our osteopaths assess the entire kinetic chain—including hips, lower back, pelvis, and feet—to identify and treat underlying biomechanical issues that contribute to pain and inflammation in the knee.
