Knee pain can severely limit your mobility. At Nova Prime Physical Therapy in Chantilly, VA, we provide comprehensive evaluations and treatment for all types of knee conditions, from sports injuries to chronic arthritis.
The knee joint is under constant stress, whether you're a runner on the trails in Reston or just navigating stairs in your Chantilly home. Pain can arise from various sources, including ligamentous injuries like ACL or MCL sprains, meniscus tears, or the gradual wear-and-tear of osteoarthritis.
Our expert therapists focus on restoring joint stability and mobility through evidence-based protocols. We emphasize strengthening the entire kinetic chain—including the hips and ankles—to reduce the load on your knees. Using advanced techniques like dry needling, cupping, and skilled manual mobilization, we address both acute inflammation and chronic dysfunction.
Occasional clicking is often harmless, but if it's accompanied by pain or swelling, it could indicate a meniscus or tracking issue that we should evaluate.
Braces can provide temporary support, but our goal is to build your 'internal brace' through muscle strength. We'll guide you on when a brace is truly necessary.
In many cases, yes—with modifications. We use gait analysis to identify harmful patterns and help you adjust your training volume to promote healing.
