Knee conditions
The knee is very sensitive to biomechanical mal-alignment. Normal knee function relies on an efficient functional relationship between biomechanics of the foot and pelvis. When either of these are out, the knee will begin to function abnormally and so become prone to injury. It is important that patients undergo a biomechanical assessment and gait analysis to correctly determine the factors which are causing the condition so that effective treatment can be initiated.
At The London Podiatry Centre, we work closely with a number of different specialists to ensure the effective holistic management of knee conditions. A myriad of different treatments are used to effectively treat the knee including the correction of kinetic and kinematic imbalances using functional orthoses, rehabilitation, core stability programmes, acupuncture, injection therapy and surgery.
