Knee pain really is very common, you do not need to just put up with it though. See a good physio 😉 and consider putting into place these relatively simple measures to help your knees, both now & in the future 📶 You will be surprised that small habits often make a big difference and that strength is key to staving off many musculoskeletal issues🗝️

5. The impact of slight improvements to your lifestyle habits such as exercise, hydration, sleep, nutrition and mental health, is massive

6. Making other people responsible for curing your pain, rather than taking responsibility, will keep you in pain

7. Believing your back is fragile and exercise will damage it will make your pain and quality of life worse. Pain messages do not typically mean harm.

8. Saying you “tried it and it didn’t work”, when you did something inconsistently for a few weeks, does not count as “trying it”

9. Find some time for you every day, you can’t look after anyone else, if you can’t look after you

10. Struggling to get back in control of your back? I know a good Physio…
