If you’re suffering with 'bad knees', they are painful or achy - it’s very easy to assume that this is the way you will be for the rest of your life. Thats it's “just something that comes with age”, or that, "you have too many miles on your knees." Maybe you are confused as to why you’re feeling pain in your knees - all you know is that it doesn’t seem to be getting any better! If that’s happening to you, you’re not alone - we hear and see this all the time.
The fact is that Knee Pain is one of THE most common problems that we see in our Physical Therapy Clinic in Wyckoff, NJ.
And when someone has knee pain, they always want to know the answers to these questions:
“Why is This Happening to Me?”
“Why is my pain getting worse when it's already been over 6 months?"
Most people think that their Knee Pain, will eventually “ease up” and go away over time on it’s own. So they don't do much about it. But then 6 months later they are still living with the persistent knee pain - possibly even worse than it was when it started.
Does That Sound Like You?—Another scenario we see often at Skyline Physical Therapy clinic is that people are told by the Doctor to “rest”, “try these painkillers” and “come back in 6 weeks if it’s no better” - but then 6 weeks later, they ended up going back to the same Doctor again because it hadn't got any better. Only to be given another pill prescription, recommended an injection or maybe a knee support.
Has That Ever Happened To You?—Maybe you are confused because everywhere you look for advice, you are being told different things. Maybe you can't figure out if you should be resting, walking or doing some of the exercises you've come across on the internet for knee pain.
It’s very confusing to know exactly what to do - and that’s just to avoid worsening knee pain! This confusion and frustration often leads people to not do anything at all! Even worse, many people end up accepting it as “part of getting older” - meanwhile there are plenty piers of theirs without knee pain!
Is This How You Feel Too?
IF YOU’RE CURRENTLY LIVING WITH KNEE PAIN, HERE’S 7 MORE REASONS WHY IT COULD BE LASTING LONGER THAN IT SHOULD:
-
You thought it would go away on it’s own so you did nothing about it, and it didn't go away
-
You went to the doctor, and were prescribed painkillers and rest. The pills temporarily eased the pain, and once they wore off... the knee pain struck again
-
A family member, or friend, told you that everybody gets knee pain eventually as they get older, so you just accepted it
-
You sought help from other Physical Therapists in the past, but nothing they said or did seemed to help
-
You’ve tried using Knee supports which never did anything to help make the pain any better
-
You thought it would be a good idea to rest because your knee pain was so bad, but it still irritates you daily
-
You tried a few exercises from the internet - but you didn't know if you were doing them right, and they didn't have any lasting effect on your pain
If any of these have happened to you - we would love to help you by inviting you to book a call to talk with Dr. Joseph Damiani of our Wyckoff, NJ Clinic to find out what can be done to help you.

What Other People Who WERE Suffering From Knee Pain Are Saying About Skyline Physical Therapy...
ALANA, Westchester County
My knee injury had gotten so bad that I was barely able to walk. I was very concerned because I am a teacher and I’m always moving around the classroom. I came in for my first visit very discouraged, but Joe really listened and cared about me as a person, not only my knee. Every visit was one on one, this made me feel much better about my decision to do therapy. I only needed 10 visits total before I could work all day pain free again. I recommend Skyline to everyone, all I can say is it was very results driven and effective.
BRENDAN, Ridgewood
Joe has helped me with many issues before in person and I knew I wanted his help with some pain I was experiencing in my leg, but I wasn’t sure if the online system would work because he couldn’t do anything hands on to help. But after one online session my pain was completely gone and it was just as effective as an in person session. It was super easy to get into the video call and convenient to do the whole session at home!
ARTURO, Redondo Beach
I got my independence back which you can’t put a price on. I was told for years that arthritis in my knee left me with only one option for relief, a Knee Replacement. I was unable to walk for more than 30 minutes without a lot of pain. Being a very active person, this was horrible to deal with. Joe used all these treatments and my knee pain actually subsided! Now I can jog and be active again without pain!
“WHAT CAN I DO TO GET RID OF MY KNEE PAIN QUICKLY?”
Well, here's 4 things you can do:
-
Number One, you need to MAKE A DECISION about getting help. So many people procrastinate for too long, thinking that knee pain will go away with time, but then six months later they're still putting up with it!
-
Next, do the RIGHT exercises! One of the best things to help you ease your knee pain is to do a proper exercise progression—the right exercises prescribed by a physical therapist can help reduce pain and allow you to move freely again, AND with continued completion of the exercises, you can really get your life back.
-
Avoid Sitting in Awkward Positions - the truth is, people were not designed to sit for long periods of time. When you sit, muscles, ligaments and tendons can get tight and inflammation can build. What would really benefit you is if you were given appropriate strengthening exercises for better posture, alongside hands-on treatment, to get you active and healthy as quickly as possible.
-
Get real, "Hands-On" physical therapy! Physical therapy, especially manual physical therapy, is one of the most effective ways to relieve knee pain safely. At Skyline Physical Therapy, it's one of our specialties!
