Hip and Knee Pain Relief

Hip and Knee Pain Relief

Hip and knee pain can severely limit your mobility and enjoyment of daily activities. Whether it’s a sharp ache or a dull throb, these conditions can make walking, climbing stairs, or even getting out of bed a challenge. Fortunately, our team of compassionate and skilled in-home physical therapists understands the impact this pain can have on your life. 

At Active Health Solutions, our therapists use the most effective techniques to achieve lasting hip and knee pain relief and get back to moving freely and confidently. If you’re in the Washington, DC, Northern Virginia or Maryland area, stay home and let us visit you for a consultation.

Various factors can lead to hip and knee pain, including:

Osteoarthritis

This is the most common form of arthritis, causing cartilage degeneration in the hip and knee joints, leading to pain, stiffness, and swelling.

Injuries

Sprains, strains, and ligament tears in the hip or knee can cause significant pain and instability.

Muscle Imbalances

Weak or tight muscles can contribute to improper joint mechanics and pain.

Bursitis

Inflammation of the bursae (fluid-filled sacs) around the hip or knee can cause pain and tenderness.

The symptoms of hip and knee pain vary depending on the cause. Common signs include:

  • Aching or sharp pain in the hip or knee
  • Stiffness or decreased range of motion
  • Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or squatting
  • Swelling or redness around the affected joint
  • Popping or clicking sounds in the joint
  • Weakness or instability

In-home physical therapy is a highly effective treatment for finding lasting hip and knee pain relief. At Active Health Solutions, our therapists will design a program tailored to your specific needs, including the following:

  • In-depth Evaluation: Comprehensive assessments to identify the source of your pain and develop a tailored treatment plan.
  • Manual Therapy Techniques: Massage, joint mobilization, and specific stretching techniques to improve flexibility, reduce stiffness, and promote healing.
  • Strengthening Exercises: Personalized exercises targeting specific muscle groups to enhance strength, stability, and joint support.
  • Balance and Gait Training: Exercises to improve balance and coordination, reduce the risk of falls, and promote safe movement.
  • Patient Education and Self-Management: Empowering you with knowledge and tools for effective self-management, including assistive device recommendations, pain management strategies, and daily exercises for long-term prevention.

I tore my ACL last year and by my great luck, Annie ended up as my physical therapist. She was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and friendly, answering all of my many, many questions and listening to whatever I wanted to discuss with her. She knew when to push and when to be supportive — and she was great company during all…

– Hilary

Annie is the best PT I’ve ever had, and I’ve had a lot of them. She fixed multiple problems – back, shoulder, neck, hip – with a range of therapies, all of which produced significant results. She also has great bedside manner, and listened carefully to my symptoms, concerns and past PT experiences before diagnosis and treatment. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

– Jonathan

Annie and her team are truly gifted practitioners. Both a knee and a shoulder have been under their care and results off the charts. If you have been underwhelmed by PT try the combination of dry needling and follow-on exercises – life changing. And they come to your home.
