What Causes Knee Pain?

The knee joint is the simplest joint in the human body. Its only job is to flex and extend the leg, bringing your heel to your butt and kicking the leg out straight. Pain begins to set in when the knee starts to do more motions, like rotation. More motion in the knee means that other joints, like the ankle or hip, aren't working properly. At Kinach Chiropractic, Dr. Andrew will assess the whole leg to understand why your knee is hurting and what strategy we need to do use to get you back to your best! 

There are some, more serious, knee injuries that chiropractic care isn't right for until it is seen by other healthcare professionals. Injuries such as:

  • Meniscus Tear

  • ACL Tear

  • MCL Tear

  • LCL Tear

Chiropractic care is helpful when dealing with knee pain. With any general pain in an area, it is important to assess where the pain is happening before treatment can begin.
