I have seen my physician and was told I have a knee problem. Will you treat that?
Yes. Additionally we think of the knee as part of the functional movement of the body and not just the joint in isolation; it connects through a movement pattern that involves other physiological, functional and learned movements unique to you. We consider the whole you.
