Treatment Details

Bill presented to the office with moderate bilateral knee osteoarthritis, with associated pain along the anterior and lateral regions of both knees, an inability to stand or walk for more than 5 minutes without increasing ache, stiffness, and tension in his lower quads and IT bands. He was treated with Active Release Techniques, Muscle Activation, Dry Needling with electric stimulation, massage therapy, and targeted rehabilitation that focused on balance, ankle mobility, and hip/ankle strengthening. Bill reported at the end of his treatment feeling at least 90-95% better than at the outset but with occasional mild flare ups depending on activity. He also was able to visit Disney World with his family and walk throughout the parks (7-9 miles per day) with minimal discomfort and stiffness.
