🦵🏽 Knee Pain After an Injury? 🦵🏽

Let’s Talk Biomechanics!

This patient came in with persistent knee pain after an injury to the area a few weeks ago.

But did you know the ROOT cause can sometimes be above the knee?! 🤔

✅ First, I assessed the pelvis using Gillet’s Test to check sacroiliac mobility. An imbalance here can create compensations down the kinetic chain.

✅ I adjusted the ilium, restoring proper movement and helping relieve unnecessary stress on the knee.

✅ To address local pain and inflammation, I applied infrared laser therapy directly to the knee for enhanced healing and circulation.

Knee pain isn’t always just about the knee—proper assessment and treatment of the entire lower body can make a huge difference! 💥
