Knee Complaints
The knee endures a lot of stress daily, especially during sports, climbing stairs, or squatting.
Knee pain can occur acutely (such as a meniscus or ligament tear while playing football) or gradually due to overuse or wear and tear. We are also your trusted partner in Zevenhuizen for rehabilitation before and after knee surgery (such as a total knee replacement or ACL reconstruction).
Our knee treatments focus heavily on an active approach. We begin with a thorough analysis of your load management, carefully aligning your daily physical activity with what your knee can safely tolerate. We may use massage on the quadriceps and hamstring muscles to reduce tension, alongside medical taping to temporarily support and unload the joint.
You will then receive functional home exercises to build stability and strength around the knee at home, which can be supplemented with more intensive guidance in our fysio fitness area.
Common symptoms
Pain around or behind the kneecap, swelling (fluid in the knee), fear of instability.
Our approach
Post-operative rehabilitation, medical taping, massage, load management, and strength training.
