Knee Pain

AIM Physical Therapy treats knee pain to restore motion of the knee joint. Physical therapy will improve knee joint function and flexibility.

The knee joint plays a major role in weight bearing activities. Proper range of motion and strength allow for:

  • Ascending and descending stairs
  • Smooth transitioning to and from sitting
  • Comfortable lifting to and from the floor

Whether due to a sports injury or an arthritic condition, changes in knee function can be painful and limit daily functioning. Chronic knee pain may affect sitting, standing and functional mobility.

We will provide a thorough evaluation followed by prompt therapeutic treatment. We will discuss changes in function and work to develop goals to meet your specific needs.
