RELIEVING HIP, KNEE AND LEG PAIN YOU DON’ T NEED TO SUFFER ANY LONGER
Your hip, knee and lower leg are tough—but injuries happen. Your hips and knees are your largest joints, supporting your body’s weight. They work in close coordination, giving us the mobility we need. Between arthritis, injuries and age, however,
pain can flare up. (continued inside)

What Causes Hip, Knee and Leg Pain? Hip, knee and leg pain are surprisingly common.Thus, their source can come from a variety of things. If you’re experiencing pain in any part of your leg, pinpointing the exact spot can help you determine the cause. Mayo Clinic has pinpointed several leading causes of hip, knee and leg pain. While many causes exist, the most likely are:
In some cases, limited blood flowmay cause bone tissue death, or necrosis. If you’re experiencing redness, inflammation and immobilized joints, the condition may be severe. What Are the Symptoms? While leg pain is noticeable by a slew of symptoms, several stick out. Aching or stiffness around the hip, groin, back or thigh may be a sign of deeper problems. A decreased range of motion, too, is a sign of deeper problems which may later result in hip, knee or leg pain. Sometimes, inactivity can contribute to immobility—and later pain. If you’re limping, lurching or are experiencing bad balance, contact a physician. While some hip, knee and leg pains go away, those lasting longer than several months may be hinting at a deeper issue.
• Arthritis • Dislocation • Hip fracture • Sprains and strains
• Tendinitis • Pinched nerves • Osteoporosis • Cancer
While some causes are more severe than others, a physician can identify each. As the body ages, joints become inflamed. Cartilage may wear down, reducing the “buffer” between bones.

Does Arthritis Pain Grind You Down?
Millions of Americans suffer from arthritis pain every day, taking Ibuprofen and stronger medications to numb the pain and address the ongoing inflammation. The definition of arthritis is joint inflammation, however the term has acquired a wider meaning. Arthritis is now used as a generic term for osteoarthritis and other conditions that affect joints.The pattern, severity and location of arthritis symptoms can vary depending on the specific form of the disease. Typically, arthritic conditions are characterized by pain and stiffness in and around one or more joints.The symptoms can develop gradually or suddenly. Certain rheumaticconditions can also involve the immunesystem and various internal organs of the body. Physical therapy is an important part of the ongoing treatment for arthritis. Physical therapy strengthens, stretches and stabilizes muscles surrounding affected joints providing needed support. Relieving Joint Pain Exercising is important to help reduce joint pain and stiffness. Light to moderate-intensity physical activity can actually prevent a decline in function, even restoring health. However, some people with arthritis may be reluctant to exercise because of joint pain after activity. You can take various steps to relieve pain, such as heat and cold therapy, or pain relievers, making it easier for you to exercise and stay active. In addition to physical therapy, choose non-impact exercises such as bicycling, swimming or water exercise. Furthermore, research shows that even modest weight loss combined with exercise is more effective in decreasing pain and restoring function than either weight loss or exercise alone. If you are suffering from arthritis pain, call us today and discover how we can relieve your pain, returning you to a more active, pain-free lifestyle!

"My relationship with Greg Cadichon and Rebound Fitness goes back to February of 2007 after I herniated a disc in my neck. Greg and his team noticed muscular strength deficiencies throughout my neck and back and designed a program to strengthen the muscles critical to ensure this wouldn’t happen again, which it hasn’t. Fast forward several years and I was back at Rebound Fitness working to rehab my knee after meniscus surgery. My goal was to get back on the paddle tennis court as quickly as possible. Greg was sensitive to my desire and designed a rehabilitation program that not only had me back on the paddle court in five weeks, but also able to successfully complete the season. In 2016 I encountered my biggest challenge when I was diagnosed with an irregular heart beat and blood clots. My doctors addressed these issues to the best of their abilities, but I immediately knew who to contact to get me moving in the right direction – Rebound Fitness. Greg and Rennie have worked tirelessly with me over the last two years to the point where I feel like I am in the best shape of my life. While I will never run another marathon, I am able to do things now that I didn’t think possible when these issues arose. I cannot say enough good things about Greg and Rebound Fitness. Whether you are an elite high school athlete or a road warrior rehabbing an injury, the team at Rebound Fitness cares about you as a person and will give you as much time and attention as needed to successfully get you back in the game." - Mark Burnstine
