Take a deep breath... and it's important to stay relaxed while I do this. Otherwise, it could be so painful, you could throw up...
These were the words from my doctor as he adjusted my knee for the first time.
Pretty comforting, right?
Anyway, this little home test isn't painful at all, but could be very revealing why you may be experiencing knee pain...
1.Place your hand gently on your kneecap.
2. Slowly extend your leg, to be as straight as possible…
If you find you can’t quite get your leg perfectly straight or if it feels stiff and/or a little painful, chances are your knee is low on synovial fluid.
Synovial fluid is the thick, slippery “joint juice” that greases your knee and helps you move smoothly, without “grinding” or “catching.”
When you’re young, your knees are loaded with it, which is why you hardly ever noticed any aches or stiffness in your knees in your 20s and 30s…
But past the age of 50, your body’s natural supply of synovial fluid starts to run low.
This thins out the cushion in your knee and makes your bones rub against each other more often, leading to painful knees.
The good news is, there’s a super simple way to help top up that fluid and soothe your achy knees.
It’s a quick, 5-minute trick you can do right in your
living room.
Go here to discover how to do it and start moving more freely again.
Enjoy pain-free knees,
