Knee pain can make stairs, workouts, and even a walk around the block feel like a chore. Palmercare Chiropractic Woodbridge looks at how the hip, pelvis, and foot affect the knee, because the problem often starts above or below it.
Dr. Eric Meyer and Dr. Todd Redfearn work to identify what is overloading your knee so your care can target it.
The knee is a hinge that depends on the hip above and the ankle below. If either is stiff or misaligned, the knee absorbs the extra stress. Muscle tightness, joint restriction, and altered movement patterns all play a part.
A thorough exam covers knee, hip, ankle, and low back function. We tell you honestly if an injury such as a ligament or meniscus tear needs imaging or a specialist.
Patients often notice:
Your plan reflects what your exam shows about how you move.
We treat the knee along with the joints around it.
We test knee, hip, ankle, and low back motion, along with gait and balance, to see where the extra load is coming from.
Adjustments to the hip, pelvis, knee, and ankle can restore joint motion and reduce stress on the knee.
ArthroStim’s gentle, precise adjustment offers a comfortable way to work on restricted joints and tender areas.
We recommend exercises for the hips and legs, along with footwear and activity tips, to help the knee handle its workload.
