JB Berns claims that he healed himself of injures. I use his DVD for prevention and when I feel achy in a certain area.

no offense to doctors, but many of them are reluctant to refer you to a PT unless you've had a severe injury.
I think the resources people posted about are good starting points about evaluating what might be causing the pain. it's not just from exercise - you'll need to evaluate how you occupy yourself the other 96% of the time. walking, sleep position, sitting posture, hip posture.... all impact knee pain. throughout the day, assess your hip, back, knee and foot positions. have a family member film you walking. look at the bottoms of your shoes - is the injured side more worn out than the others? do you carry a really heavy purse and/or back pack? lots of areas to do a self-assessment. these two books in my local library have been awesome and are good resources. both were written by PTs. VF has several threads about the Jennifer Rhodes book (Peak Performance). Peak Performance Fitness: Maximizing Your Fitness Potential Without Injury or Strain Walk Yourself Well: Eliminate Back Pain, Neck, Shoulder, Knee, Hip and Other Structural Pain Forever-Without Surgery or Drugs

One would think re-strengthening muscle is the last option to fix pains and imbalances. It is wrong! Strength training can help. Also it can be blamed even though the root of some issues is simply anatomical anomalie, bad posture etc..... Bad form while lifting can cause injury too. Here below are some article about how to fix pains and/or imbalances. http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/back...or-posture.htm http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/ss26.htm http://www.bodybuilding.com/content/...alignment.html http://cathe.com/are-glute-squeezes-...tronger-glutes |
