Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is one of the most common causes of knee pain, especially in runners, cyclists, and active individuals. It involves pain around the kneecap where it articulates with the thigh bone. The condition often results from muscle imbalances that affect how the kneecap moves.
At Actilife, we identify the specific biomechanical factors contributing to your knee pain through a detailed assessment. Our treatment focuses on correcting muscle imbalances, improving tracking of the kneecap, and gradually returning you to pain-free activity.
