Knee Pain Treatment in Sun Prairie
Whether caused by injury, overuse, or underlying conditions, knee pain is a common complaint that can significantly impact daily life and keep you from doing what you love. The discomfort often stems from complex factors beyond the knee itself. Dr. Sandy has expertise in diagnosing and treating knee pain, considering the entire lower body mechanics.
While knee pain may result from direct joint inflammation or misalignment, it’s often a symptom of issues elsewhere in the body. Misalignments in the hip, for instance, can place extra stress on the knee joint.
Similarly, problems in the feet or ankles may lead to compensatory movements that strain the knees.
Tailoring Our Approach to Meet Your Needs
We employ a variety of techniques to address knee pain, including:
- Specific adjustments to the hips, knees, ankles, and feet
- Soft tissue work and therapeutic exercises
- Activator Method® for gentle, precise corrections
- Manual or drop table adjustments to restore proper joint function
- Advanced light therapy to reduce inflammation
- Personalized stretching and strengthening routines
Lifestyle Modifications for Knee Health
Preventing knee pain is just as important as treating it. We guide our patients in making lifestyle changes to protect their knees, such as balancing high-impact activities with low-impact exercises like swimming or cycling, choosing softer running surfaces when possible, maintaining proper muscle balance and strength in the legs, and managing body weight to reduce knee stress.
