Do I Have To Have Knee Surgery?

Is knee surgery really needed? Many patients think that if they have torn a ligament or a meniscus that surgery on the knee is inevitable. This is not the truth. Whether you have new onset knee pain or it's been present for years, it's likely that we can help. Many patients have knee pain that they have been told is due to arthritis, but if the pain is gone within a few visits, does that mean that the arthritis is gone?? Absolutely not, but it does mean that the arthritis is not what was causing the pain.

What Causes Knee Pain?

There are many contributing factors to knee pain. Arthritis is indeed a factor, but so are the ligaments, tendons and muscles that surround the joint. In addition, imbalances at the knee caused by dysfunction of the foot or tightness in the hip can create pain at the knee.

Treatment of Knee Pain at Lifecare Chiropractic Is Effective and Unique

A true approach to knee pain will take all of these factors into account. Balancing out the muscles of the hip, supporting the foot with orthotics and performing soft tissue manipulation around the knee is the approach that will provide the best outcomes. Graston technique is a unique procedure that uses patented, stainless steel instruments to affect the soft tissues surrounding the knee. Results can be quite dramatic, whether the knee was injured hours ago or has been a problem for 30 years.
