Hip, Shoulder and Knee Pain
Chiropractic care for hip, shoulder, and knee pain takes a holistic approach, focusing on the body’s entire musculoskeletal system to address the root cause of the issue. A misaligned spine or pelvis, for example, can create imbalances that put extra stress on the joints, leading to pain and reduced mobility. By using gentle, targeted adjustments to restore proper alignment, Doctors of Chiropractic can help alleviate nerve pressure, decrease inflammation, and improve joint function. This comprehensive method supports the body’s natural healing process and can lead to long-term relief without relying on medication or surgery.
In addition to manual adjustments, a chiropractor will often use a variety of other non-invasive techniques to treat joint pain and improve overall function. This can include soft tissue therapies like massage and myofascial release to relax tight muscles and reduce tension. Corrective and rehabilitative exercises are also frequently prescribed to strengthen muscles, improve flexibility, and restore proper movement patterns. For issues like shoulder and knee pain, treatment extends beyond the localized area to address imbalances in the neck, spine, and hips, ensuring that the entire body works together efficiently. By providing a personalized treatment plan, chiropractic care helps patients regain their mobility and prevent the recurrence of pain.
