Knee Pain
At Yokohama Physio, we assess knee pain by evaluating the spine, hips, pelvis, and ankle movement patterns for comprehensive treatment.
Physiotherapy Consultation for knee pain
A physiotherapy consultation for knee pain at Yokohama Physio begins with a discussion of your pain history and symptoms. This is followed by a thorough assessment of your knee's structure and mechanical function to understand how it interacts with your environment and whether movement patterns may be contributing to your pain.
Our physiotherapists evaluate your posture and movement, including any compensatory patterns or imbalances that may contribute to your knee pain. We also assess the strength and flexibility of muscles around your knee, hips, ankle, and even foot to tailor a treatment plan to your needs.
Based on our findings, we discuss a management strategy with you to help alleviate your knee pain and achieve your goals.
