Knee pain is a common complaint that affects people of various ages, significantly impacting their mobility and quality of life. MOOV Physiotherapy in Ottawa offers specialized care for those suffering from knee pain, employing advanced techniques and personalized treatment plans.
Understanding the Prevalence of Knee Pain
Knee pain can arise from a variety of causes, ranging from acute injuries to chronic medical conditions. It is one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints that bring people to medical attention.
Knee pain can severely limit one's ability to move freely, perform daily activities, and enjoy an active lifestyle. It can also lead to other health issues due to reduced mobility and the psychological impact of chronic pain.
Understanding Knee Pain
Knee pain can vary in intensity and can be a symptom of many different conditions. Accurate diagnosis is key to effective treatment and long-term relief.

Comprehensive Assessment
Your journey begins with a thorough assessment to determine the cause of your knee pain. This includes a physical examination, medical history review, and may involve diagnostic tests.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Based on the assessment, our team will develop a customized treatment plan. This plan is designed to not only alleviate your current pain but also to prevent future knee problems.

Building Strength and Stability

Dry needling, or Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS), is an effective technique for treating certain types of knee pain, especially those related to muscle tension and trigger points.
How Dry Needling Helps
