Dedicated to movement and joints: enlighten with knowledge, motivate life full of potential
Education about the root of one’s problem must be the first step followed by a systematic wholistic approach that often doesn’t rely on medicines but reorientation of how one conducts a daily routine. A surgical correction may allow rectification of a mechanical issue, but has to be undertaken after complete consideration of type of intervention (injection/ arthroscopy/ open surgery) and the guarantee of resultant outcome. Rehabilitation to regain full activity following operative procedures is a vital part of treatment.
