Knee Pain / Kniepijn

Why Does Knee Pain Occur?

Knee pain is a common concern that affects people of all ages. Everyday activities such as climbing stairs, prolonged walking, or engaging in sports can put a strain on the knees. However, knee pain is not solely caused by ageing. Poor posture, muscle imbalances, and fascial tightness can also contribute to discomfort.

Do you experience any of the following symptoms?

Difficulty kneeling due to knee pain

Pain when descending stairs

Stiffness in the knees while walking

At Holistic Massage Clinic TEATEYA, we don’t just alleviate pain temporarily—we focus on identifying the root cause of knee pain and restoring overall body balance to help prevent recurrence and maintain long-term health.

Do These Symptoms Sound Familiar?

✔ Pain when kneeling or sitting on the floor

✔ Difficulty going up and down stairs

✔ Stiffness in the knees after prolonged walking

✔ Pain when standing up from a seated position

✔ Discomfort in the knees during sports or exercise

✔ No improvement despite using pain relief patches or medications

✔ Temporary relief from massage or chiropractic care, but the pain returns quickly

If you have any of these symptoms, the true cause of your knee pain may not lie in the knee itself but rather in imbalances elsewhere in the body.

What Causes Knee Pain?

There is no single cause of knee pain. At TEATEYA, we go beyond treating just the knee—we conduct a full-body assessment to determine the underlying factors contributing to your pain.

COMMON CAUSES:

1️⃣ Postural Imbalances (Rounded Shoulders & Pelvic Misalignment)

Poor postures, such as a forward-leaning stance or pelvic misalignment, shifts the body’s centre of gravity and places excessive stress on the knees.

2️⃣ Fascial Adhesions & Twisting

Fascia is a connective tissue network that links the entire body. Adhesions in the fascia of the hips, thighs, or ankles can restrict movement and lead to knee pain.

3️⃣ Muscle Weakness & Imbalances

An imbalance between the quadriceps (front thigh muscles) and hamstrings (back thigh muscles) can create unnecessary stress on the knee joint.

4️⃣ Restricted Ankle & Hip Mobility

Knee function is closely linked to the movement of the ankles and hips. If these joints become stiff, additional strain is placed on the knee, increasing the likelihood of pain and dysfunction.

TEATEYA’s Approach to Knee Pain Relief

At TEATEYA, we don’t view knee pain as an isolated issue. Instead, we focus on the interconnections between muscles and fascia throughout the body to achieve fundamental, long-term relief.

OUR THREE-STEP TREATMENT PROCESS:

① Comprehensive Consultation & Full-Body Assessment

To effectively treat knee pain, we don’t assume that “pain in the knee = problem in the knee.”

🔍 Postural Analysis – Assessing standing posture and walking patterns to identify imbalances

🔍 Range of Motion Testing – Evaluating not just the knee but also the ankles, hips, and pelvis

🔍 Fascial Connectivity Diagnosis – Identifying restrictions in muscles and fascia affecting knee function

💡 For example, knee pain can often stem from limited ankle mobility!

Many cases of knee pain originate from stiffness in the ankles or hips, which forces the knee to compensate, leading to discomfort.

② Myofascial Release & Joint Adjustment

💡 What is Myofascial Release?

Fascia is a thin connective tissue layer covering the entire body, ensuring smooth muscle movement. Prolonged sitting and lack of activity can cause fascial adhesions, restricting knee mobility and leading to pain.

At TEATEYA, we use advanced myofascial release techniques to relieve knee stress through:

✔ Releasing fascial adhesions in the thighs, hips, and ankles (not just the knee)

✔ Addressing the entire kinetic chain rather than focusing solely on the pain site

✔ Precise adjustments targeting deep fascial layers that traditional massage may not reach

Additionally, by improving joint mobility and restoring postural balance, we reduce unnecessary strain on the knees.

③ Movement Re-Education & Prevention Program

Have you ever experienced temporary pain relief, only for the discomfort to return later?

At TEATEYA, we provide a personalized self-care program to help you maintain long-term results.

📌 TEATEYA’s Original Knee Pain Prevention Program

🔹 Simple self-myofascial release techniques using a tennis ball or foam roller
