IT Band Syndrome
Solving Outer Knee Pain in Runners and Walkers
Iliotibial Band (ITB) Syndrome is a common overuse injury, especially in runners, walkers, and cyclists. It causes pain on the outside of the knee and is often linked to hip weakness or poor movement mechanics.
Symptoms Include:
- Pain on the outer part of the knee, especially with repetitive activity
- Pain running downhill or after longer distances
- Clicking or tightness around the knee
How We Treat IT Band Issues:
- Soft tissue release and foam rolling guidance
- Gluteal strengthening to offload the ITB
- Gait analysis and movement retraining
- Activity modification to reduce aggravation
