Chiropractic Helps with Knee Pain

Texarkana natural knee pain treatmentKnee pain is a common issue for patients in our Texarkana chiropractic office, and Back Pain Chiropractic has happily provided many of these folks relief. This is largely because chiropractic care has been found to help with many forms of knee pain.

For example, some individuals feel pain in and around the knee area due to osteoarthritis. Research has proven that this condition responds very well to chiropractic--and rather quickly, too. In fact, one article published in The Journal of the Canadian Chiropractic Association found that individuals with osteoarthritis in their knees felt significant pain relief and improved function after just two weeks of chiropractic care.

If your knee pain is as a result of a medial meniscus tear, chiropractic could likely help with that as well. One article reported that combining chiropractic with soft tissue treatment, rest, ice, and compression on the affected knee helped lower the intensity of the pain.

Of course, sometimes a knee replacement surgery is necessary in order to repair the issue, and if that's the case, chiropractic care can also help improve the outcome. How?

Research Supports Chiropractic Helps With Knee Pain

Medical research has shown that people with low back pain frequently have less positive results after knee surgery. Thus, dealing with your back pain through chiropractic before having a total knee arthroplasty can help with your post-surgery recovery.

No matter what your knee issue, Back Pain Chiropractic can likely help. Call our Texarkana location today and find out what we can do for you!
