Knee pain
Knee pain is not always caused by something in the knee itself. Spinal alignment, hip function, and the way you walk all affect the loads passing through the knee. When the spine or pelvis is out of balance, compensatory patterns in the lower body can lead to pain and wear in the knee over time. Virginia takes a whole-body approach — assessing your spine, pelvis, and lower limb alignment to understand the bigger picture before planning treatment.
What you might notice
- Pain when walking, climbing stairs, or squatting
- Stiffness after sitting for a long period
- Swelling or a feeling of instability
- Pain that worsens towards the end of the day
- Altered gait — favouring one side or limping
How Virginia can help
- Assesses whether spinal or hip alignment is contributing to knee loading
- ASMI mobilises the lumbar spine and pelvis to improve how load is distributed
- Reduces compensatory muscle tension in the hip, thigh, and calf
- A holistic plan that addresses the root cause rather than just the knee
- Works well alongside orthopaedic care if you also have a local knee problem
