Experiencing knee pain or weakness?
Choice Physical Therapy is offering a FREE knee pain workshop on Tuesday, September 30 from 5:45pm to 6:45pm at our office on Market Street in Corning.
The knee is a hinge joint like the elbow, but with far less bone-provided stability. It is designed to allow for some side-to-side motion and twisting, but too much in any direction can result in short term injury and pain or arthritis development long term.
In this free workshop, we will cover basic knee anatomy, the most common knee injuries, common causes of knee pain, some of the best basic exercises, and what effective conservative treatment should look like – without lots of medication, injections, or surgery. This will be an informal and interactive way to share information and learn some ways to stay active and healthy.
This workshop is for anyone with knee pain or weakness, or those experiencing other leg pain which may be connected to the knee. If knee or leg pain is effecting your running or training, this is for you. If you hurt your knee in the yard or on the field, this is for you. Trouble getting up and down stairs? Walking on grass or inclines? Getting out of low chairs? Think you have arthritis? Did someone tell you you have “bone on bone?” This is for you.
This workshop may also help if you have had surgery or are trying to decide about a surgery, or looking for possible alternatives to surgery.
