Knee Pain – A More Natural Option
Our knees are a remarkable part of our body. If you’ve ever dealt with knee pain, then you understand how important they are. Every day we depend on them to perform the most basic tasks of living.
The knee is a very mobile joint supported on all sides and internally by ligaments and muscles. It’s a work of art, but with all the stress we put on it there can be problems. The knee can become misaligned leading to premature degeneration.
The Common Path
The most common path in healthcare is the traditional medical system. Early in life most of us were trained that the hospital is the source of health. When we have pain or sickness the hospital will fix it for us.
In the case of knee pain, there are typically three medical options…
- Medication
- Physical Therapy
- Surgery
There are times when any of the three options listed above can be correct, but are they always correct? Are those the best options for a misaligned knee?
A Different Perspective
The first question to ask would be…can you adjust or realign a knee joint? The answer to that is yes. Most chiropractors have training in extremity adjusting which includes the knee.
A trained chiropractor can assess your knee, figure out the direction of misalignment, and then gently bump the knee back into position. In some cases that light bump can save patients from ending up with surgery or a future knee replacement.
If you’re dealing with knee pain and would like a second opinion our team at Advanced Relief Chiropractic is happy to help. If we don’t feel we can help, we’ll be the first to tell you but starting with a non-invasive option like chiropractic is a good idea.
