What is knee pain, foot pain and ankle pain?                                               

Did you get weighed down by your back, foot or ankle pain? As you age, the chances of lower leg pain, especially in the knee, foot and ankle, increase drastically. Around 24% of persons have joint ailments from the knees down. You may be at risk of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or other related disorders due to characteristics such as tenderness, reduced ability to run, walk, or carry weight, and weakness or swelling of the joint.

It is typically due to irritation caused by extra body weight or changes in lifestyle if pain in the shoulder, foot or ankle occurs without injury. As the joints under the knee are comparatively weak, the joints such as the knee, foot or ankle can quickly be strained or moved by sudden shifts in body weight or lifestyle.

How does Chiropractic Treatment benefit people suffering from knee, foot and ankle pain?                                            

Chiropractic treatment can be an effective way to treat and alleviate lower leg swelling and irritation caused by inflammation in the knee, foot and ankle. Routine chiropractic treatment is a safe, non-invasive, non-addictive solution to prescription drugs or over-the-counter pain killers (OTCs) for patients with knee, foot and ankle pain, which are typically administered to patients to help them relieve their pain and swelling.

Chiropractors provide a gentle, non-invasive, non-addictive therapy, known as chiropractic correction. In an attempt to minimize pain and enhance the function of both the injured joint and the nervous system, chiropractic changes reduce joint restrictions or misalignments in the spine and other joints in the body. Your body has the potential to help control complications caused by knee, foot and ankle pain by increasing joint stability and strengthening the nervous system function and spinal health.
