The Performance Place Sports Care is located in Huntington Beach, CA. 714-502-4243 Jumper’s Knee is an overuse injury as well. It is very similar to tennis elbow in the way it develops. When the quad muscles exert a large demand on the tendons attaching to the kneecap, many times small micro tears are possible. These small tears fill with scar tissue in a haphazard fashion, kind of like spraying Silly String in someone’s hair. The result is a clumpy mess and decreased function of the tendons and muscles. This scar tissue will result in muscle tightness and repeated injury to the tendon. ART® is the best manual therapy at removing scar tissue from the knee and getting you back into your sport without having to buy a patellar brace. These braces do not fix the problem; they only help with the pain for a period of time. In just 4 – 6 sessions of ART®, most basketball players and runners no longer need the knee straps they have been using for years!
