Joint Pain in Moncks Corner Treatment Sessions

If you’re suffering from bothersome joint pain that makes movement difficult, you don’t have to just live with it. The skilled physical therapists at Renewal Therapeutics LLC in Moncks Corner offer customized treatment plans to reduce joint pain and restore mobility.

Is This Joint Pain Treatment Right for You?

Joint pain affects people of all ages and activity levels. It can occur in the knees, hips, shoulders, hands, or other joints. Common causes include:

• Arthritis
• Injuries
• Overuse
• Muscle imbalance
• Excess weight putting stress on joints

The nagging soreness and stiffness makes everyday activities challenging. Our comprehensive joint pain therapy can help if you are experiencing:

• Pain that interferes with daily activities
• Difficult or painful mobility
• Chronic achiness and soreness
• Swelling around the joints
• Feelings of weakness around the joints
• Joint noises like cracking or popping

Regardless of age, weight, or activity level, we create customized treatment plans to meet each patient’s needs.

How Therapy Helps Relieve Joint Pain in Moncks Corner

Rather than masking joint pain with medication, our expert staff address the underlying causes with hands-on care. We do a thorough evaluation to understand what’s causing irritation and immobility. Treatment techniques include:

• Joint mobilization – Gentle, hands-on stretching and massaging of the joints and surrounding soft tissues. This enhances flexibility and range of motion.
  
• Therapeutic exercise – Carefully chosen exercises enhance strength and stability around affected joints. This takes pressure off the joints to alleviate pain.
  
• Manual therapy – Hands-on techniques like massage improve blood flow and relax the muscles.
• Functional training – We simulate everyday activities to retrain normal movement patterns for optimal joint function.

We also provide targeted health education like posture tips, activity modifications, weight loss support, and home exercise programs. This empowers you to manage the condition beyond the clinic.

While not all joint discomfort can be cured, our tailored therapy programs can help you:

• Live pain-free – Symptoms may not disappear completely but most patients experience significant reductions in joint pain levels.
• Regain mobility – With improved joint flexibility and function, movement becomes easier with less pain.
• Resume activities – Getting back to gardening, golf, exercising, playing with grandchildren becomes possible as joints heal.
  
• Prevent future injuries or joint degeneration – Strengthening support muscles safeguards joints from further damage.
• Avoid surgery – In some cases therapy alleviates the need for invasive joint procedures.
