Anterior knee pain refers to pain at the front of the knee, often around or behind the kneecap. It is common in people who play sports, run, or spend a lot of time on their feet. This type of knee pain can make everyday movements, like squatting, climbing stairs, or even sitting for a long time uncomfortable or painful. People often describe the pain as a dull ache, which can get worse with certain activities. Chiropractic care offers a natural way to help relieve anterior knee pain. Chiropractors look at how the knee aligns with the rest of the body and use gentle adjustments to reduce strain on the joint. They might also suggest exercises to strengthen the muscles that support the knee, helping to relieve pressure and improve stability, often without the need for medications or surgery. If you have pain around your knee, it is suggested that you see a chiropractor for treatment.

Knee Pain

Knee pain is a frequent complaint that can arise from injuries, overuse, arthritis, or misalignments in the body. This pain can disrupt daily life, limiting movement and impacting quality of life. Knee discomfort often develops when the body’s structural alignment is off, which places extra strain on the knee joint and surrounding muscles and ligaments.

Chiropractic care focuses on reducing knee pain by assessing and addressing alignment throughout the lower body. Gentle adjustments may be used to realign the knee and correct imbalances in the hip, pelvis, and spine that contribute to excessive knee stress. Restoring alignment in these areas can relieve pressure on the joint, ease pain, and promote improved mobility.

To support these adjustments, chiropractors often incorporate exercises, stretches, and lifestyle guidance to improve strength and flexibility around the knee. Strengthening muscles surrounding the joint can offer additional stability, helping to prevent future injuries.

Is knee pain treatment going to be painful?

Patients may worry that adjustments or other treatments will hurt. Chiropractors reassure patients that the techniques used are generally gentle, with any discomfort being mild and short-lived. They work within the patient’s pain tolerance.

How many sessions will I need?

Frequency and number of sessions depend on the pain’s severity and the patient’s response to treatment. Chiropractors often suggest a treatment plan tailored to the individual, sometimes starting with frequent visits and tapering as improvement occurs.
