Barefoot Osteo December 28, 2024

Knee pain is a common issue that affects people of all ages and lifestyles in Warrnambool and beyond. Whether it’s caused by an injury, overuse, or a degenerative condition like osteoarthritis, knee pain can make even simple activities—like walking, climbing stairs, or bending down—difficult and frustrating. As one of the largest weight-bearing joints in the body, the knee plays a critical role in mobility, stability, and overall movement. When knee pain occurs, it often impacts other areas of the body, such as the hips, lower back, and ankles, leading to further discomfort and imbalance.
