Chiropractic Helps with Knee Pain

Boardman, OH natural knee knee pain treatmentKnee pain is a common problem for people in our Boardman, OH chiropractic office, and Dr. Denise Carradine has happily provided many of these men and women relief. This is mostly because chiropractic care has been found to help with many forms of knee pain.

For instance, some individuals encounter pain in and around the knee area due to degenerative arthritis. Research has confirmed 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 enhanced function after just two weeks of chiropractic care.

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

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

Research Shows Chiropractic Helps With Knee Pain

Research has shown that people with low back pain often have less positive results after knee surgery. Thus, dealing with your back pain through chiropractic before having a total knee arthroplasty can assist with your post-surgery healing.

No matter what your knee issue, Dr. Denise Carradine can likely help. Call our Boardman, OH location today and find out what we can do for you!
