What is joint pain?

Joints make up the juncture between bones. When you have arthritis, or an injury, including overuse, it compromises your joints’ ability to move freely and without pain.

Both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis cause painful joints. You may also experience joint pain due to bursitis, gout, and strains or sprains. Our skilled Doctors and therapists can help you manage any of these issues, including strains and strains.

Can a chiropractor help alleviate my knee pain?

More people complain about knee pain than any other type of joint pain. Knee pain can be temporary or long-lasting, depending on its origin. The causes include overuse, poor posture, tight muscles, and arthritis. We help you pinpoint the reason for your knee pain and design a treatment plan to offer relief and help you achieve greater function.

It’s noninvasive, safe and results in no side effects.The cold laser therapy reduces inflammation, stimulates the nerves, and promotes the synthesis of collagen to help with wound healing.
