Knee pain is often influenced by what happens above and below the joint, including the hips, low back, and feet. We assess how you move to find what is placing extra stress on the knee.
Sometimes the knee is where it hurts, not where the problem begins.

Common questions
Can a chiropractor treat knee pain?
Yes. Care focuses on joint motion, soft tissue, and movement patterns around the knee, hip, and low back that influence how the knee loads.
What if I have a possible ligament or meniscus injury?
We will examine you, and if your findings suggest a structural injury that needs imaging or orthopedic care, we will refer you.
When to seek urgent care: Seek urgent care for knee pain after a significant injury, inability to bear weight, visible deformity, or a hot, red, swollen joint.
