Knee Conditions

Many people suffer from a variety of knee complaints including bursitis, patello-femoral disorders, Osgoode Schlater's, chondromalacia, iliotibial band syndrome, meniscal damage, ligament instability, and arthritis.

Chiropractic

During the early stage of treatment ice and interferential current are used to decrease inflammation and pain. Chiropractic adjustments are used to restore proper joint mechanics. Soft tissue techniques such as active release and trigger point therapy are used to reduce scar tissue and loosen surrounding musculature. Stretching and strengthening exercises are prescribed to stabilize the joint and reduce the possibility of a recurrence.

Massage Therapy

During the early stages massage therapy will decrease any inflammation with drainage and circulation techniques. A treatment will focus on reducing adhesions within the tissue, reducing muscle spasm, increasing and maintaining range of motion, and muscle strength.
