Knee arthritis is a common condition that can significantly impact mobility and quality of life. Characterized by the gradual breakdown of cartilage, knee arthritis leads to painful, swollen joints and restricted movement. As the protective cartilage in the knee deteriorates, bones may rub against each other, creating inflammation and discomfort that can make simple activities challenging. Chiropractic care with Heath Hancock, DC, and the team at Hancock Chiropractic offers a natural and non-invasive approach to managing knee arthritis, helping patients find relief and improve their mobility. To schedule an appointment, call the office in Salina, Kansas, or request one online today.

What are the symptoms of knee arthritis?
Knee arthritis symptoms often develop gradually and may vary from person to person. If you have knee arthritis, you may experience:
- Pain that worsens with activity
- Stiffness, especially after periods of rest
- Swelling around the knee joint
- Decreased range of motion
- A feeling of instability or “locking” in the knee
If you experience knee arthritis, your symptoms may be mild initially, but as the condition progresses, these signs can intensify, making movement and weight-bearing activities increasingly difficult.
When should I seek treatment for knee arthritis?

Other signs that it’s time to consult Dr. Hancock and the team at Hancock Chiropractic include persistent swelling, difficulty straightening the knee, or knee discomfort that limits activities you once enjoyed.
