SHOULDER
There is more movement at the shoulder joint than at any other joint in the body. The shoulder can assume no less than 1,600 different positions and is used in a vast majority of day to day activities and sports. This mobility comes at a cost however, with the shoulder being one of the least stable joints in the body and a problematic area when an injury occurs. It is one of the joints where regular care and injury prevention is vital.
ELBOW
Elbow pain can be caused by local muscle, tendon or joint injury. Pain can also be referred from the neck similar to sciatica in the lower limbs.

HIP
Your hip is the joint where your thigh bone meets your pelvis. The hip joint is a ball and socket joint which is very stable and when they are healthy, it takes a great amount of force to hurt them. Most hip injuries are a result of repetitive overuse with poor technique in activities involving i.e. running, jumping and squats.
KNEE
Most knee injuries can be categorised into acute or overuse injuries. Acute injuries result from a sudden trauma such as an awkward fall, collision or twist of the knee joint. Overuse injuries result from continuous activity or sudden overload such as running, cycling, weight training or bushwalking. These start gradually and progressively worsen.
