Knee pain requires an accurate diagnosis to ensure appropriate and directed treatment and management to get you back out there moving well.

  • sudden change in training or loading

Chronic injuries are those that are experienced for 12 weeks or more and may be caused by

  • overuse
  • poor biomechanics
  • general health
