• LEG PAIN

    Our feet, hips and knees not only carry our whole body weight when we walk and stand, but they also are designed to absorb shock from activities we do daily.

LEG PAIN

Made up of hips, knees, ankles and feet, our legs are complicated and held together by many tough ligaments. Responsible for carrying our whole bodyweight as we move around and stand up, our legs also absorb shock from any activities we do.

There are many things that can go wrong with our legs, including but not limited to:

  • Ligament Injuries – Knees, hips and ankles can get these!
  • Arthritic Pain – common in knees and hips and can be very debilitating.
  • Sciatica – meaning pain down the leg, it’s roots are often based elsewhere in the body.
  • Muscle Spasms – common in sports but can also be related to muscle tears and sprains.

  • Sports Injuries – from shin splints to tendonitis, sports can sometimes be hard on the body.

We take a holistic approach to the treatment of leg pain and always look above and below the affected joint, so we don’t miss anything.

Our treatments often involve the use a variety of techniques tailored to your individual needs, including:

  • Osteopathy looks at how the joints of the body function and aims to restore good movement by combining joint mobilisations to improve stiffness, manipulations (‘clicking’) and soft tissue therapies such as massage, stretching and myofascial release. Treatments always discuss rehabilitation and often we give appropriate strengthening exercises and dietary advice to help prevent further injury.
  • Soft Tissue Techniques (massage, IASTM, stretching, myofascial release) provides a deep tissue massage to the body tissues that can focus on muscles relevant to the affected area. Along with osteopathy, massage can help restore efficient lymphatic flow.
  • Acupuncture can often help relieve pain from injuries and conditions effecting your legs and is great for areas that are too tender to treat with hands on treatments.
  • Kinesiotaping can help with a multitude of symptoms including reducing swelling and bruising along with offering gentle, non-restrictive support to the area.
  • Shockwave Therapy is excellent for injuries that are slow to heal and are an ongoing problem. Using radial pressure waves, the treatment helps to stimulate a healing response and accelerate your recovery.

We help you to formulate an achievable rehabilitation programme to stretch and strengthen the surrounding musculature to your problem area, helping you to enjoy your body again!
