In recent years, ๐—ž๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ฐ ๐—”๐—น๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ป๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ has transformed the way total knee replacements are performed. Instead of using the traditional โ€œone size fits allโ€ approach, this method focuses on restoring your own natural knee anatomy, the way it was before arthritis or injury changed it.

The goal is to return each patientโ€™s unique alignment and balance by restoring:
- Bone shape and position
- Soft tissue balance
- The natural hipโ€“kneeโ€“ankle relationship

This patient-specific technique allows for a knee that feels more natural, moves more freely, and often leads to higher satisfaction and faster recovery.

Traditional knee replacements had up to a 20% dissatisfaction rate. Kinematic Alignment has changed that, giving patients personalised care and function that feels right for them.

Dr Craig Solomon has extensive experience in this advanced alignment method and continues to refine each procedure with precision and care, helping patients return to pain-free movement and an active life.

We believe precision matters, which is why Dr Solomon uses the CORIยฎ system in hip and knee surgery. ๐Ÿฉต This smart robotic-assisted technology helps him create a detailed 3D model of your joint and plan your procedure uniquely for you.

Hereโ€™s how it benefits you:

๐Ÿ”น Enhanced accuracy and alignment mean your new joint fits your body better and may last longer.

๐Ÿ”น Lower exposure to radiation and fewer pre-scans required thanks to image-free mapping.

๐Ÿ”น A more natural-feeling joint, faster recovery, and back to doing what you love sooner.

If hip or knee pain is holding you back, the advanced care at CTS Joints may be just what youโ€™re looking for.

- Severe pain that makes it difficult to enjoy everyday activities like walking, standing, or sitting.
- Stiffness that limits your ability to bend or straighten your joint.
- Pain that continues even while resting or at night.
- Instability in the joint that affects your balance and confidence when moving.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Patient Story: From Pain to Hope

"Iโ€™ve had four surgeons in the past eight months, and the pain from morning to night was unbearable after my previous surgeries. Eight weeks ago, Dr Craig Solomon performed a knee replacement and truly gave me faith in the medical field again when I had almost lost hope. The operation was a complete success, and my recovery has been life-changing.

Thank you, Dr Solomon, you are an incredible surgeon, and I am deeply grateful." - Ioland Loydall

At CTS Joints, stories like this remind us why we do what we do, helping patients move again, live pain-free, and rediscover their confidence in movement.
