Chiropractic Treatment of Knee Pain

Chiropractic Treatment of Knee Pain

Knee pain is a frequent issue for people in our Prescott chiropractic office, and Weary Chiropractic Clinic has successfully provided many of these men and women relief. This is largely because chiropractic care has been found to help with many forms of knee pain.

For instance, some people experience pain in and around the knee tissues due to osteoarthritis. Research has shown that this condition responds very well to chiropractic--and rather quickly, too. In fact, one article published in The Journal of the Canadian Chiropractic Association found that individuals with osteoarthritis in their knees felt considerable pain relief and enhanced function after just two weeks of chiropractic care.

If your knee pain is due to a medial meniscus sprain, chiropractic could likely help with that as well. One study found that integrating chiropractic with soft tissue therapy, rest, ice, and compression on the affected knee helped lower the intensity of the pain.

Of course, sometimes a knee replacement surgery is necessary in order to rectify the problem, and if that's the case, chiropractic care can also help improve the outcome. How?

Research Shows Chiropractic Helps With Knee Pain

Medical research has shown that patients with low back pain frequently have less positive results after knee surgery. Therefore, dealing with your back pain through chiropractic before having a total knee arthroplasty can help with your post-surgery healing.

No matter what your knee issue, Weary Chiropractic Clinic can likely help. Call our Prescott clinic today and find out what we can do for you!
