Knee and Hip Pain

Knee and hip pain often develops as a result of poor alignment or movement patterns. Some of the common issues we see include:

  • Knee pain: Caused by conditions like patellofemoral pain syndrome, iliotibial band (ITB) syndrome or osteoarthritis.
  • Hip pain: Often linked to bursitis, tendinopathies or referred pain from foot or ankle problems.
  • Overcompensation injuries: When pain or imbalance in one area forces other joints and muscles to work harder, leading to strain.

How foot mechanics impact knee and hip pain

The way your feet interact with the ground directly affects how your knees and hips move. Misalignments can cause abnormal stress on these joints, leading to discomfort, pain or even injury.  By addressing these underlying issues, we can help restore alignment and relieve stress on your knees and hips.
