• Standing near a countertop, put one foot in front of the other so you are touching heel-to-toe. Without putting your hands down, see if you can balance for 10 seconds. If you cannot, this may mean you have trouble with the coordination of your balance from the nerve endings in your hips, knees, ankles, and feet.

Genuinely so grateful to Heather and Dan. I came to them about a month and a half into my ACL rehab f rom a different physical therapist. They single-handedly prevented me f rom needing to be put under anesthesia for manipulation. Dan and Heather are both amazing physical therapists that know what they are doing. It’s a very f riendly environment and I never felt like I was not being paid attention to as some busy physical therapy chains can feel like. They give you the time and attention you need to make sure things move along. I cannot say enough good things about total performance. Thank you Dan and Heather! — P.F.
Practice caution when performing these tests with a painful knee or hip, and do not continue them if they cause your pain to worsen: • When you are standing, can you touch your toes? This indicates hip and low back flexibility. • When sitting down, can you comfortably cross your legs so your ankle is resting on the opposite knee? Does one knee go further down than the other? This indicates hip flexibility. If one hip is tighter than the other, it can impact the way you walk and can cause knee pain. • Keeping your feet flat on the floor while holding onto something solid, how far can you squat down? You should be able to squat all the way down so your buttocks almost touch your heels. Don’t let your heels pop up! If you favor movement to one side, you probably have hip weakness on that side or limited motion in the hip joint.
