Dynamic Rehab: Hip, Leg, And Knee Pain

The Newsletter About Your Health And Caring For Your Body NEWSLET TER

Your hips, knees, and lower legs are tough—but injuries happen. Your hips and knees are your largest joints, supporting your body’s weight. They work in close coordination, giving us the mobility we need. Between arthritis, injuries and age, however, pain can flare up. If you’re experiencing hip, knee or leg pain, call us to schedule a closer look. Before you do, however, let’s examine the pain itself. What Causes Hip, Knee, and Leg Pain? Hip, knee and leg pain are surprisingly common. Thus, their source can come from a variety of things. If you’re experiencing pain in any part of your leg, pinpointing the exact spot can help you determine the cause. Dynamic Rehab has pinpointed several leading causes of hip, knee and leg pain. While many causes exist, the most likely are: Tackling Hip, Leg, & Knee Pain

While some causes are more severe than others, a physician can identify each. As the body ages, joints become inflamed. Cartilage may wear down, reducing the “buffer” between bones. In some cases, limited blood flow may cause bone tissue death, or necrosis. Ifyou’reexperiencingredness, inflammationand immobilized joints, the condition may be severe. What Are the Symptoms? While leg pain is noticeable by a slew of symptoms, several stick out. Aching or stiffness around the hip, groin, back or thigh may be a sign of deeper problems. A decreased range of motion can also be a bigger issue which may later result in hip, knee or leg pain. Sometimes, inactivity can contribute to immobility—and later pain. If you’re limping, lurching or are experiencing bad balance, contact a physician. While some hip, knee and leg pains go away, those lasting longer than several months may be hinting at a deeper issue.

“I can now walk up and down the stairs without pain!” “I had the great, good luck to meet Dr. Yoshovayev and his outstanding staff. My right knee was swollen and numb. On the first day, Dr. Yoshovayev administered acupuncture to that area along with muscle stimulation. Next, special oils and lotion were applied to my knee. That was followed by a massage on my right leg. Dr. Yoshovayev had me to do certain leg exercises to strengthen the muscles. The result of the acupuncture was great. I can now walk up and down the stairs without pain. I strongly recommend this treatment.” - Vanda R.H.

What Is PEMF?

Dry Needling

Pulsed Magnetic Field Therapy re-energizes damaged cells by inducing electrical changes within the cell that restore it to its normal healthy state. Because of this, cellular metabolism is boosted, blood cells are regenerated, circulation is improved, and oxygen carrying capacity is increased.Ultimately, the immunesystembecomeshealthier, thenervous system relaxes, bones and joints become stronger and vital organs such as the liver, kidneys, and colon, are able to rid themselves of impurities thus detoxifying the body. Pulsed Magnetic Therapy can reduce pain and improve the quality of your life by allowing your body to function as it was designed to do.

Dry Needling is not acupuncture, a practice based on traditional Chinese medicine and performed by acupuncturists. Dry Needling is a part ofmodernWesternmedicineprinciples and is supported by research. Dry

3 Needling involves multiple advances of a filament needle into the muscle in the region of a “Trigger Point.” The aim of Dry Needling is to achieve a local twitch response to release muscle tension and pain. Dry Needling is an effective treatment for chronic pain of neuropathic origin with very few side effects. Based on the Trigger Point theory, Dry Needling targets the discrete, irritable points in skeletal muscle and fascia, which, upon compression, are painful and can refer tenderness or radiate pain. When tissue is injured,whetherbyacute traumaorrepetitiveuse, thebody respondswith inflammation to thatarea. Inaneffort to furtherprotect itself, the damaged tissue contracts, resulting in a decrease in oxygen and the ability to remove toxins from the inflamed area. Left untreated, restriction in mobility can occur as scar tissue builds up around the muscles and tissues. Dry Needling can not only eliminate neuromuscular pain but also restore mobility and functionality. TheDryNeedling techniqueutilizesvery thin,solid filamentneedles,which are inserted into the knotted muscle to elicit a twitch response, resulting in a relaxation of muscle contraction. In addition, the produced immune response to the insertion of the needle affects a systemic reduction in inflammation all over the body, not just locally. It is termed ‘dry’ as no material is injected into the tissue. 8 1 6 3 4 4 7 5 3 6 7 5 9 6 2 7 9 7 5 8 4 1 3
