Chiropractic approach to treating hip pain and knee pain
Hip pain and knee pain are common complaints we see at Innate Health Chiropractic. The proper pain-free function of the knee and hip are very much dependent on each other, as well as the pelvis and lower back, and indeed the ankle and foot.
What is the cause of
My hip problem
There are a variety of causes of hip pain. Most hip complaints are a combination of the issues we detailed above. Our chiropractor will be able to determine from your medical history and assessment where your pain is likely arising from.
Mechanical dysfunction of the hip joint (movement disorder of the hip)
Bursitis of the hip (Trochanteric bursitis is an inflammation of the fluidfilled sac on the outer hip)
Muscular problems such as tendinitis, strains or tears
Impingement of the hip (FAI femoral acetabular impingement)
Osteoarthritis of the hip
Pelvic dysfunction affecting the hip, such as sacroiliac and pubic bone dysfunction)
What is the cause of
My knee pain
Some other causes of knee pain include:
Problems with the knee cap (patello-femoral pain syndrome or tracking problems)
Osteoarthritis of the knee or age-related wear and tear
Muscular problems particularly of the quadriceps
Ligament sprains such the ACL/PCL tears and collateral ligament sprain
Meniscus pain and tears
