Knee Pain
Knee pain is a common problem that affects many people, and it can be caused by a variety of factors. Chiropractors are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of knee pain conditions, using a combination of manual therapy, exercises, and lifestyle changes.
​
One of the most common types of knee pain that chiropractors treat is osteoarthritis, which is a degenerative condition that causes inflammation and pain in the knee joint. Chiropractors use techniques such as joint mobilization, soft tissue therapy, and exercises to reduce pain and improve mobility in the knee.
​
Another common type of knee pain is caused by ligament or cartilage injuries such as ACL or meniscus tears, which can result in pain, swelling and instability in the knee. Chiropractors use techniques such as joint mobilization, soft tissue therapy, and exercises to reduce pain and improve stability in the knee.
​
Another condition that chiropractors treat is patellofemoral pain syndrome, which is caused by improper tracking of the kneecap and can result in pain and discomfort behind or around the kneecap. They use techniques such as joint mobilization, soft tissue therapy, and exercises to improve the tracking of the kneecap and reduce pain.
​
Lastly, chiropractors also treat conditions such as tendonitis, which is inflammation of the tendons surrounding the knee and can cause pain and discomfort. They use techniques such as joint mobilization, soft tissue therapy, and exercises to reduce pain and improve function in the knee.
​
In addition to these techniques, chiropractors may also recommend lifestyle changes, such as exercise, weight management, and stress reduction, to help prevent knee pain from recurring.

Knee pain can be debilitating and can affect your quality of life, but with the help of a chiropractor, it can be effectively managed and treated. If you are experiencing knee pain, it is important to seek the help of a chiropractor, who can diagnose the underlying cause of your pain and develop an individualized treatment plan to help you achieve lasting relief.
