🚗 Driving Ache

The Biomechanics of Pain
Understanding why your joint is hurting is the first step to fixing it.
The Knee is a "Dumb Joint"
The knee only does what the hip and ankle tell it to do. If your hip rotators are tight or your glutes are weak, they force your thigh bone to rotate internally. Your knee, caught in the middle, has to twist to compensate. This torsion causes wear, tear, and pain. We don't just treat the knee; we fix the hip and ankle mechanics causing the problem.

Common Questions
Why does my knee hurt if the problem is my hip?
The knee is caught in the middle. If your hip lacks mobility, your body forces the knee to twist to compensate, leading to pain and wear.
Do I need X-rays first?
Use your best judgment, but often we can identify the mechanical issues without imaging. If we suspect a fracture or serious pathology, we will refer you to a doctor immediately.
Will I have to stop running?
Not necessarily! Our goal is to get you back to your activities as soon as safely possible. We may modify your volume while we fix the mechanics.
