The Importance of Knee Health, Physical Activity & Weight Management

  • Summary

  • Hey there, it’s Rob and Shannon! Welcome to another episode of the "Get Better, Not Older" podcast, where we dive into holistic health to help you live your best life.

    We start by discussing the common causes and misconceptions surrounding knee pain, particularly knee arthritis. Just because you’ve been diagnosed doesn’t mean you’re destined for a life of immobility. We’ll discuss how muscle imbalances and poor mechanics can contribute to your discomfort and share our approach to assessing knee pain without relying solely on imaging results.

    Next, we highlight the importance of physical activity, with walking as a key activity to enhance overall health. We know that knee pain can be a barrier, so we’ll guide you through strategies to address underlying issues and improve your mobility.

    We also explore the concept of arthrogenic neuromuscular inhibition, explaining how chronic pain can lead to muscle weakness and further complications. You’ll learn how to combat these effects through targeted rehabilitation and strengthening exercises.

    Throughout the episode, we emphasize the need for a holistic approach to health, advocating for proactive steps to manage knee pain and maintain an active lifestyle. We share real-life examples from our clinical practice, illustrating how addressing the root causes of pain can significantly improve your quality of life.

    Join us as we uncover the secrets to mastering knee health, managing pain effectively, and incorporating sustainable physical activity into your daily routine. Remember, getting older doesn’t mean slowing down—you’re just getting better!
