Hip & Knee Pain in Arlington

A Customized Approach to Relieving Hip and Knee Pain at Arlington Physical Therapy

Hip and knee pain can severely impact your quality of life. Simple activities like walking, climbing stairs, or getting in and out of a chair can become agonizing. You may limp, lose your balance, or require a cane just to get around. Even lying in bed at night brings no relief.
The causes underlying hip and knee pain vary from person to person. Factors like arthritis, injuries, mechanical issues, or muscle imbalances around the joint can all contribute to the problem. With so many potential causes, it’s important not to self-diagnose, but seek professional care.

That’s where Arlington Physical Therapy’s experienced orthopedic therapists can help. During an initial one-on-one evaluation, we’ll thoroughly assess your hip or knee to determine what structures are involved and what factors are driving your symptoms. This enables us to create a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs. We utilize the latest evidence-based techniques to reduce inflammation, alleviate muscular tightness, mobilize the joint capsule and ligaments, address biomechanical dysfunction, and strengthen stabilizing musculature. Our goal is to pinpoint the root causes of your pain and provide targeted interventions to resolve it.

Frequently Asked Questions about Our Hip/Knee Pain Relief Services

What causes hip pain that radiates down to the knee?
Referred pain from the back/spine that radiates down to the hip and knee area is common. Hip joint, muscular, or nerve-related issues can also cause pain referral down to the knee. Our assessment determines the origin of pain and appropriate treatments.

Should I keep walking with hip pain?
Walking with hip pain is okay if it is mild, but severe pain indicates potential injury. Limit walking distance/speed to a tolerable level. Stop activity if sharp/stabbing pain occurs and consult a orthopedic therapist to avoid further damage.

How do you get rid of hip and knee pain?
Getting rid of hip/knee pain requires determining the underlying structural cause and addressing it through modalities like hands-on manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, activity modification, assistive devices, and taping.
