If you experiencing persistent hip or knee pain that’s limiting your daily activities Avin can offer a holistic approach to help you find lasting relief and regain your mobility.

Avin Patel recognises that pain in the hip or knee may not always originate from those joints themselves. Instead, it could be linked to issues in other areas of the body, such as the lower back, pelvis, or even ankles.

Here’s how Avin Patel can help address your hip and knee pain:

  • Thorough Assessment:

    Avin will conduct a comprehensive physical examination to understand the root cause of your pain. This involves assessing your posture, range of motion, muscle strength, and the movement of your joints. He will also take a detailed medical history to understand your specific symptoms and how they impact your life.

  • Identifying the Underlying Cause: Unlike simply treating the symptoms, Avin will delve deeper to identify the underlying factors contributing to your hip or knee pain.

    This could involve:

    Biomechanical Imbalances: Misalignments or restrictions in the pelvis, lower back, or ankles can affect the way you walk and put undue stress on your hips and knees.

    Muscle Imbalances: Weak or tight muscles around the hip and knee can contribute to instability and pain.

    Joint Restrictions: Stiffness or reduced movement in the hip or knee joint itself can cause pain and discomfort.

    Postural Issues: Poor posture can place excessive strain on the lower limbs

  • Gentle and Effective Treatment Techniques: Based on the assessment findings, Avin will use a variety of gentle, hands-on techniques to address the identified issues. These may include:

    Mobilisation and Articulation: Gentle movements to restore joint mobility and reduce stiffness in the hip, knee, and surrounding areas.

    Soft Tissue Techniques: Massage, stretching, and other techniques to release muscle tension and improve circulation.

    Muscle Energy Techniques: Using your own muscle contractions to help restore joint alignment and improve movement.

    Myofascial Release: Addressing restrictions in the fascia (connective tissue) that can contribute to pain and stiffness.

  • Personalised Management Plan: Avin believes in empowering you to take an active role in your recovery. He will provide you with tailored advice on:

    Exercise and Stretching: Specific exercises to strengthen weak muscles, improve flexibility, and support your hips and knees.

    Posture Correction: Guidance on maintaining proper posture during daily activities.

    Ergonomics: Advice on adapting your workspace or activities to reduce strain.

    Pain Management Strategies: Practical tips to help you manage your pain effectively

Testimonials

I went for my first session with Avin last week. I was feeling very despondant as have had many treatments for my pain with little results. After one session I was able to move a lot easier and am looking forward to my next one. Any one suffering with sciatica or artheritis would benefit from booking an appointment. Excellent service, and restoration of hopes for a more active participation in my family life.

Joanne

My shoulder was in such a state I was convinced it would need surgery but thanks to Avin’s treatment it is now stronger than ever! Great service.

Andy

I contacted Avin Monday morning as my back had gone into a spasm and was in absolute agony could of cried with the pain, he saw me Monday afternoon at his house and did acupuncture and massage on it, afterwards the relief was wonderful he had relieved the spasm, my back still hurt but no where near as bad, he saw me again the next day (which was his day off) and did the same treatment again, and again felt better afterwards.
I would definitely recommend Avin, and will be keeping him on speed dial !!!

I contacted Avin and he saw me at short notice, helping me get through Christmas. Professional, courteous and seemingly always willing to go above and beyond for his patients I can’t recommend MSK highly enough.
