Knee Pain: Causes and How We Can Help
Knee pain can make it hard to stay active and enjoy life. Whether it’s from an injury, overuse, or a condition like arthritis, getting the right treatment quickly is key to feeling better and preventing further issues. At Isleworth Pain and Injury Clinic, we combine chiropractic and physiotherapy to provide complete care for knee pain, helping you move with confidence again.
Common Causes of Knee Pain
Here are some of the most common reasons for knee pain and how they might affect you:
Ligament Injuries: Sprains or tears in the ligaments, such as the ACL or MCL, that support your knee and keep it stable.
Meniscus Tears: Damage to the cartilage that cushions your knee, often caused by twisting or sudden movements.
Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (Runner’s Knee): Pain around or behind the kneecap, often due to overuse or how you move.
Osteoarthritis: Age-related wear and tear on the knee joint, leading to stiffness, swelling, and pain.
Tendonitis: Inflammation of the tendons around the knee from repetitive strain or overuse.
Bursitis: Swelling in the small fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion your knee joint.
How We Help with Chiropractic Care
We focus on restoring alignment and function throughout your body to ease knee pain and improve movement. For knee pain, we offer:
Adjustments: Gentle techniques to realign your spine and lower body, which can reduce stress on your knees.
Soft Tissue Therapy: Massage and stretching to loosen tight muscles and improve flexibility around the knee.
Joint Mobilization: Gentle movements to reduce stiffness and improve knee joint mobility.
Gait and Movement Assessment: We analyze how you walk and move to identify any issues that might be causing knee pain.
