🔬 Attention knee sufferers! 🔬

Are you interested in preventing common knee issues by learning more about the fascinating world of knee biomechanics? 🦵 Let's explore how understanding the biomechanics of the knee can help us safeguard against various knee pathologies.

Did you know that excessive knee valgus, characterized by an inward angulation of the knee joint, can lead to a myriad of problems? Symptoms include knee pain, instability, altered gait, swelling, and limited range of motion. But it doesn't stop there! Chronic knee valgus can pave the way for serious knee pathologies such as patellofemoral pain syndrome, ACL injuries, MCL injuries, meniscal tears, and cartilage damage. 😱

By grasping the intricate relationship between knee valgus and its impact on knee mechanics, we can take proactive measures to prevent these issues. Strengthening exercises, biomechanical corrections, and activity modifications play pivotal roles in maintaining optimal knee health and function.

🎓 Join us for an enlightening discussion during our "Fluid Biomechanics for Movement Mastery" Facebook forum this Wednesday at 8pm! 🕗 We'll be diving into the intricate details of the screw home mechanism for the knee, uncovering the secrets of optimal knee alignment for tracking (valgus/varus), and exploring global movement integration techniques for promoting optimal knee health. 💡

Get ready to learn about the biomechanical marvel that is the screw home mechanism and how it contributes to knee stability and function. Discover the best alignment practices to ensure proper knee tracking and reduce the risk of injury. Plus, we'll be sharing a variety of suggested exercises designed to embed healthy movement patterns and preserve the long-term health of your knees. 🦵

Don't miss out on this invaluable opportunity to enhance your understanding of knee biomechanics and empower yourself with practical knowledge for lifelong knee health! See you there! 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬
