Knee Pain

Our Chiropractor in Richmond Hill Can Help Relieve Your Achey Knees

Running knee painWhen most people think of the pain that can be treated with chiropractic care, they think of areas that are located directly along the spinal column, such as the back or neck. So when someone mentions about going to see a chiropractor for knee pain, some may be a little confused. Chiropractic care is actually effective throughout the body, not only just the spine. At Spinalcare Chiropractic Clinic, our chiropractic treatments help to reduce pain and increase strength without resorting to medications or surgery.

What Is Causing My Knee Pain?

This type of pain can be caused by a number of reasons. Common reasons for knee pain are medical conditions, such as gout and arthritis, and injuries, such as torn cartilage and ligaments. People who suffer this can experience the following symptoms:

  • Weakness
  • Swelling
  • Stiffness
  • Unable to flex the knee
  • Severe pain

Who is At Risk for Knee Problems?

Knee problems can happen to anyone and at any age. However, certain factors can increase your chance of experiencing it. Too much weight can strain your joints, making it difficult to walk or to go up or downstairs. Certain activities, such as playing a sport or having a certain occupation, can increase your chance of getting knee pain because of the repetitive motion on this area of the body. If you had a knee injury before, it is more likely to get the same injury again.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

After a physical examination and proper diagnosis, our chiropractor can tailor a treatment plan based on your individual needs, whether your pain is caused by an injury or a health condition. Your treatment plan may include chiropractic care, massage therapy, corrective exercise, or lifestyle advice. Chiropractic care and massage therapy helps to reduce inflammation and swelling on your joints. Corrective exercises helps strengthen the muscles around the knee joint to alleviate your pain. Our chiropractor can provide lifestyle advice on how to prevent knee injuries so that your chances of obtaining the same injury can be reduced.
