Find Relief from Joint Pain & Stiffness

Joint pain can limit your ability to move, work, or enjoy daily life. Symptoms range from mild stiffness to severe discomfort that affects everyday activities.

Pain may be caused by injury, overuse, or age-related changes. In some cases, discomfort felt in a joint may actually be referred pain from another part of the body, or caused by underlying problems elsewhere.

Common Causes of Joint Pain

• Sports injuries
• Sprains, strains, or ligament tears
• Tendon problems (e.g. rotator cuff, Achilles, tennis elbow)
• Arthritis or degeneration
• Repetitive loading or overuse
