Problems with hips, legs, knees and ankles

Hip, leg, knee, ankle and foot pain

Pain affecting the hips, legs, knees, ankles and feet can have a significant impact on your mobility, exercise, work and quality of life. These problems may arise from the joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments or nerves and can often affect the way you walk and move.
At Newbury Chiropractic Centre, our experienced chiropractors regularly assess and treat a wide range of lower limb conditions. Following a thorough history and examination, we will identify the most likely cause of your symptoms and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan.

Hip pain

Hip pain is a common problem that can affect people of all ages. Whilst arthritis is one of the most common causes, there are many other conditions that can contribute to pain and stiffness around the hip.

Common causes of hip pain include:

=

Hip osteoarthritis

=

Bursitis

=

Tendonitis

=

Muscle strains

=

Reduced joint mobility

=

Sporting injuries

=

Referred pain from the lower back

Symptoms may include pain in the groin, buttock or outer hip, stiffness when walking, difficulty putting on shoes and socks, or discomfort when getting in and out of a car.

Whilst we cannot reverse the physical changes associated with arthritis, we can often help reduce pain, improve mobility and keep you active through a combination of hands-on treatment, exercise and lifestyle advice.

Leg pain

Leg pain can originate from the muscles, joints or nerves and may be felt anywhere from the hip down to the foot.

Common causes include:

=

Sciatica

=

Muscle strains

=

Nerve irritation

=

Sports injuries

=

Referred pain from the lower back

=

Tendon injuries

Symptoms may include aching, burning, cramping, weakness, numbness or tingling.

A careful assessment is important to identify the source of the problem and determine the most effective treatment approach.

Knee pain

The knee is the largest joint in the body and is subjected to significant forces during walking, running and sporting activities.

Common causes of knee pain include:

=

Osteoarthritis

=

Cartilage injuries (meniscal tears)

=

Ligament sprains and strains

=

Patellofemoral pain syndrome

=

Tendonitis

=

Sports injuries

=

Overuse injuries

Knee injuries often occur during twisting, bending or impact activities such as football, skiing, running and other sports.

Treatment may help improve joint movement, reduce pain and swelling, strengthen supporting muscles and improve overall knee function.

Ankle pain

Ankle injuries are extremely common and often occur following a twist or roll of the foot.

Common causes of ankle pain include:

=

Ligament sprains

=

Tendon injuries

=

Joint stiffness

=

Recurrent ankle instability

=

Sports injuries

=

Arthritis

Although many ankle sprains appear to recover within a few weeks, some people continue to experience weakness, stiffness or repeated injuries if the ankle does not regain full function.

Treatment may help restore movement, improve stability and reduce the risk of future sprains.

Foot pain

The feet absorb significant forces every day and problems in the feet can often affect the knees, hips and lower back.

Common causes of foot pain include:

=

Plantar fasciitis

=

Achilles tendon problems

=

Arthritis

=

Joint stiffness

=

Sports injuries

=

Biomechanical and walking-related issues

Symptoms may include heel pain, arch pain, stiffness, tenderness or discomfort when walking and exercising.

Our chiropractors can assess how your feet are functioning and identify whether they may be contributing to pain elsewhere in the body.

Natacha is the best masseuse out there. Regularly sorting my legs out for all the half marathons, training runs and upcoming London Marathon. They always feel ready to go after Natacha has worked her magic. Even sorted out my stiff neck. You will not be disappointed. Make sure you book a session.

Hello all! I have a back muscle problem. I was considering seeing a chiropractor, but I wanted to avoid making a hasty decision, so I've scheduled a massage with Natacha first. She is extremely professional. First, she assessed the situation by taking my history. Afterwards, we've reached the conclusion that a couple of massage sessions to loosen up the muscles would be most beneficial, which I could already tell from the first session. I'm looking forward to the next two sessions to see how things will improve.

I can highly recommend Teja at newbury Chiropractic Centre. After being in pain for many years with my back/hips/legs and various visits to my GP, hospital and physio I thought I would just have to 'put up with the pain' as nothing they did really helped. I visited Teja, with if im honest not much hope of improvement. But after a comprehensive assessment and a suggested course of treatment I can honestly say she has helped me no end! I can't thank her enough for the difference her treatment has made to my everyday life. I feel 10yrs younger!
