Knee Pain

The knee joint is subject to tremendous forces as a result of sports and daily activities. In a surprising number of cases, tremendous knee joint pain relief can be achieved simply by correcting misalignments. At the same time, a thorough evaluation is needed to identify issues that might be occurring with the ligaments and the muscles that give strength to the knee. Many times the issue is not in the joint, but with the muscles that control that joint. For these cases, soft tissue work and home exercises are enough to gain a good recovery.

The knee is also very influenced by the mechanics of the joints above and below it. If an ankle is not moving properly due to a previous sprain, that can put subtle stresses on the knee with each step. The accumulating stress begins to be felt in the knee. Similarly an unlevel pelvis, will affect the tracking of the knee. Therefore, it is important to look at the entire kinetic chain of joints in order to fully address knee pain.
