KNEE PAIN RELIEF in woodbridge

---

Knee pain, much like back pain, can often be traced back to issues with joint alignment and movement. In the case of back pain, it generally begins with a misalignment (subluxation) between two adjacent vertebrae. This leads to increased strain and loss of motion in the spinal joints (facets), affecting flexibility and overall spine health. Similarly, knee pain can be triggered by misalignments or improper functioning of the joints and muscles around the knee.

At Atlantis Chiropractic & Spinal Decompression, we offer specialized treatments for knee pain, including spinal decompression therapy. Spinal decompression, combined with chiropractic care, can help alleviate pressure on the spine, which is crucial for improving the alignment of not just the back, but also the lower extremities such as the hips and knees. This therapy can be highly effective for various knee conditions where misalignments or imbalances in the spine contribute to stress on the knee joints.

Trauma, overuse, strenuous work, sports activities, and heredity can cause strain or injury to knee joints. Weak or deconditioned muscles, along with the aging process, can accelerate wear and tear on the knees, leading to conditions like osteoarthritis. The knee joint becomes less flexible and more vulnerable to injury when inflammation or misalignment occurs.

Chiropractic care in Vaughan can provide relief for knee pain through spinal adjustments, physiologic therapeutics such as ice, heat, and rehabilitative exercises, along with spinal decompression. By addressing both the spine and the lower body, our treatments reduce strain on affected areas, relieve pain, and restore mobility. Chiropractors like Dr. Birk also provide customized exercise programs, nutritional advice, and ergonomic adjustments to help manage knee pain, prevent further injury, and improve overall joint health.
