Knee pain is a prevalent issue that many people face, often becoming more noticeable as we age or after an injury. Whether caused by everyday wear and tear or a condition like osteoarthritis, knee pain can affect your mobility and quality of life. At Dr. Ilan Burstein's chiropractic office, we offer personalized solutions to help you manage knee pain and improve your overall knee function.

What Causes Knee Pain?

Knee pain can result from a variety of factors, with one of the most common causes being "wear and tear" on the joints. Over time, the repetitive use of your knees—whether through physical activity or simply daily movement—can lead to joint degeneration. This process can cause discomfort, stiffness, and a limited range of motion. Osteoarthritis, a condition that affects the cartilage in the knee joint, is another major contributor to knee pain. As the cartilage breaks down, bones may rub together, causing pain and inflammation.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help with Knee Pain

Chiropractic care provides a holistic and natural approach to managing knee pain. By focusing on the alignment of the spine and lower extremities, chiropractic adjustments can help reduce pain, improve function, and prevent further damage to the knee joints. Here's how chiropractic care can benefit those dealing with knee pain:

• Realign the Spine and Joints: Misalignments in the spine and hips can affect the way you walk and place additional strain on your knees. Chiropractic adjustments help realign your spine and joints, reducing the stress on your knees and improving movement patterns.
• Relieve Muscle Tension: Tight muscles around the knee joint can contribute to pain and stiffness. Chiropractic techniques such as soft tissue therapy help release tension in the muscles surrounding the knee, offering relief from discomfort.
• Reduce Inflammation: Chiropractic care may help reduce inflammation by improving blood circulation and promoting healing in the affected area. This is particularly helpful for those with osteoarthritis or other inflammatory conditions.
• Improve Mobility: Through specific adjustments, chiropractic care can help restore the mobility of your knee joint, allowing for a fuller range of motion and better function.

Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Knee Pain

Choosing chiropractic care as a treatment for knee pain offers several advantages:

• Non-invasive treatment: Chiropractic care is a drug-free, non-surgical option for treating knee pain.
• Personalized care: Dr. Burstein tailors treatments to meet the specific needs of each patient, ensuring the most effective approach to healing and pain relief.
• Long-term relief: With consistent chiropractic care, many patients experience long-lasting relief from knee pain, improved joint function, and enhanced mobility.
