What Are Hip and Knee Pains, and How Are They Caused?

Any type of pain that concentrates around your hip or knee can be referred to as hip or knee pain, respectively. Due to damage, inflammation, or stiffness, you may experience pain originating from the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, or tendons of or around the hip or knee area.

While there are numerous reasons for knee or hip pain, some of the most common causes are as follows:

Hip – arthritis, bursitis, injuries (fracture, strain, sprain, etc.)

Knee – arthritis, overuse, injuries (fracture, strain, torn ligament, etc.)

How Do We Treat Hip and Knee Pain Through Physiotherapy?

After discussing your symptoms with your doctor, you may be encouraged to seek physiotherapy, depending on the cause and severity of the pain.

Before you begin working on a recovery plan, you’ll arrange an appointment with one of our therapists to evaluate your symptoms and determine the most suitable physiotherapy techniques. During this session, the therapist will conduct a number of examinations to locate the source of pain, observe any swelling, analyze your gait, and assess muscle strength and mobility.

After all the necessary information has been gathered, an individualized rehabilitation programme will be designed for you. Though this plan will differ for each client, you can expect the likes of massages, weight-bearing exercises, and stretching to feature.

We also offer physiotherapy for post-op hip replacements and knee replacements.

Hip and knee pain-related physiotherapy works to attain the following objectives:

Target and reduce pain and swelling
Increase range of motion
Improve endurance and function
Prevent further or future damage

Benefits of Physiotherapy for Clients With Hip and Knee Pain

Physiotherapy is among the most effective methods of reducing knee or hip pain and can be the primary treatment option or combined with additional remedies, such as assistive devices. Aiding the full recovery of a painful knee or hip is the main benefit of physiotherapy, though it’s not the only one.

Treating hip or knee pain through physiotherapy can help you return to your normal routine at a pace that’s right for you. As your therapist continuously assesses your progress, you’ll begin to reintroduce activities without causing further damage to your hip or knee.

Depending on the cause of your pain, building up strength and flexibility in your hip or knee throughout your physiotherapy sessions will lower your risk of suffering from similar aches and discomfort moving forward. You’ll also become more aware of how you can avoid repeated damage or injuries.

Physiotherapy is a medication-free form of treatment, which is a significant draw for clients who seek practical therapy and prefer to veer away from medicines. It also ensures that painkillers don’t temporarily mask the pain, which can be confused for healing.

You can access physiotherapy from wherever you wish, whether it’s in your house or condo, hospital or long-term care facility or retirement home.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My mother had a great experience with Get Right Physio for 2 Years and like to share her thoughts with you...
"I had the pleasure of receiving physiotherapy services from Sajicca and I cannot praise her enough. She visited me twice a month, always  arriving with her mobile treatment bed, a warm smile and a genuine kindness. She massaged my leg with oil, taught me exercises patiently, and encouraged me every step of the way. Her professionalism, compassion and dedication made a huge difference in my recovery. She is truly caring young lady and I am grateful for her support.  During Sajicca's absence,   Betsy, an another young lady performed an excellent service as well. I highly recommend Get Right Physio services for anyone looking for a therapist who goes above and beyond."

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am very grateful to Zarana Dobariya
PT ,for all the care and support she has given me throughout my recovery. I had a complex pelvic fracture and was unable to walk when I started physiotherapy. With Zarana’s treatment, encouragement, and guidance, I have become much stronger and am now walking and moving so much better.

Zarana is very kind, knowledgeable, patient, and accommodating. She always listens to my concerns and makes me feel comfortable and supported during my sessions. I truly appreciate everything she has done to help me regain my strength and confidence. I would highly recommend Zarana to anyone looking for a caring and dedicated physiotherapist.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I had an excellent in-home treatment experience with my physiotherapist Tarun. I had severe pain in my left knee which was the cause of scar tissue formation after my TKR. I had a knee scopy to remove the scar tissue. Tarun was very professional, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely caring throughout my in-home treatment. She took the time to understand my concerns, explained everything clearly, and tailored the treatment to my specific needs.

In a couple of weeks I started noticing improvements in my pain level, mobility and overall condition, and I always felt comfortable and well taken care of during my sessions. Her dedication and positive attitude made a big difference in my recovery.

I would highly recommend "Get Right Physio"  and Tarun to anyone looking for an experienced, compassionate, and effective physiotherapist. Thank you for all your help and support Tarun!

My Therapist Zeel is great, she was always on time, reviewed what we did the week before, and work on new exercises for the next week.  Zeel is  very respectful, and helpful and always remind you to practice the exercises you learn that week.  Looking forward to working with her again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a quad muscle injury and was unable to walk without excruciating pain.  This place was recommended by another physiotherapy clinic.  Get Right Physio sent a highly qualified young physiotherapist Jinal.  She was very
patient and knowledgeable.     I progressed daily and now I am able to walk again.  I cannot recommended this service enough.   They quickly responded to my needs and are very professional.
