Knees are a big deal, and a critical junction between the ground and the main bulk of our body. I’m not saying you’re “bulky”, just throwing out a reminder that our knees handle gravity’s unkind forces for years before they start craving our attention and sending us a bunch of pain signals. So what can we do about this predicament?
WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOUR KNEES
At my chiropractic clinic, I will give your knees the special attention they are craving. They could be damaged from one big injury, but most likely have progressive changes from the repetitive patterns of your lifestyle. It might be the joint health that has declined and needs the corrective movements only a chiropractor can bring.
After a thorough examination of your knees and the associated areas (ankles, hips, etc.) I will explain my findings and the best course of treatment. Chiropractic adjustments to the knees are gentle and help restore proper movement while stimulating joint health. They will feel immediately different, and the additional treatment we provide for the muscles, ligaments, or nerves will bring longer-lasting relief. The process of corrective care will become increasingly active, and require you to do specific exercises at home. Strengthening the surrounding muscles will help stabilize the knee joints and prevent future injuries. Our goals will include returning to your normal physical activities and the daily demands on your knees.
LOW RISK TREATMENT
Fortunately for your knees, treatment by a chiropractor is a low-risk option that can be effective at reducing knee pain. Although surgery, injections, and medications are sometimes necessary and important – it is always nice to know there are less “risky” treatments available as your first step to getting better. If your knees are too far gone for chiropractic, I will let you know. We just want you to be well, and will not hesitate to refer you to an orthopedist to explore additional options for severely damaged knees.
