How Arch Supports Help Knee Pain
The Knee is a complex body joint
Consisting of articular cartilage, meniscus, ligaments, and tendon, the knee carries the weight of the body, provides the body stability and acts as a shock absorber. The knee works like a hinge and moves in one plane of movement, flexion and extension but also has the ability to rotate slightly as it moves which makes walking more efficient.
- Approximately 25% of adults have knee pain
- Knee pain limits function and mobility and thus impairs quality of life
- Physical activity can increase knee pain and inflammation
