What is Osteoarthritis?

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint condition that causes:

  • Pain: In the knees, hips, or other joints, especially during movement.
  • Stiffness: Particularly after periods of inactivity (e.g., morning stiffness).
  • Swelling and Inflammation: Around the affected joint.
  • Reduced Mobility: Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or performing daily activities.

Common Causes:

  • Aging and wear-and-tear on joints.
  • Previous injuries or overuse (e.g., sports, manual labor).
  • Obesity, which increases stress on weight-bearing joints.

Our Approach to Osteoarthritis Knee/Hip Pain Relief

1. Osteopathic Assessment and Treatment

Our osteopaths use hands-on techniques to:

  • Relieve pain and improve joint mobility.
  • Address biomechanical imbalances in the hips, knees, and spine.
  • Provide guidance on posture, weight management, and lifestyle modifications.

2. Focused Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)

ESWT is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to:

  • Stimulate healing in damaged tissues.
  • Reduce pain and inflammation.
  • Improve blood flow to the affected joint.

Conditions Treated with ESWT:

  • Osteoarthritis of the knee or hip.
  • Chronic joint pain and stiffness.

3. Sports Therapy Modalities

We use advanced modalities to manage pain and improve function, including:

  • Infrared/Far Infrared Therapy: Promotes tissue healing and reduces inflammation.
  • Electrotherapy (TENS/EMS): Relieves pain and strengthens surrounding muscles.
  • Heat Therapy: Eases stiffness and improves joint flexibility.

4. Tailored Rehabilitation Exercises

Our rehab programs are designed to:

  • Strengthen the muscles supporting the knee and hip joints.
  • Improve flexibility and range of motion.
  • Include low-impact exercises (e.g., swimming, cycling) to protect joints.
  • Focus on weight management to reduce stress on joints.

Effectiveness and Recovery Rates

  • Pain Reduction: Many patients experience significant pain relief within 4-6 weeks of starting treatment.
  • Improved Mobility: Gradual improvement in joint function and flexibility over 8-12 weeks.
  • High Success Rates: Studies show 70-80% improvement in pain and function with ESWT and osteopathic care.
  • Long-Term Management: Our approach helps slow disease progression and reduces reliance on painkillers.
