Heath Hancock, DC

Chiropractor located in Salina, KS

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.

$49 Exam, Consultation, and Trial Treatment

At Hancock Chiropractic we like to determine whether or not you are a good candidate for our Knee Program. One of the ways that we do that is by conducting an initial treatment on the first visit if you qualify through the exam. Many people will feel imediate relief. After that treatment we will know with 100% certainty whether or not you are a good candidate. If we determine that you are not a candidate we will get you referred to the proper specialist for your specific condition.

Knee Arthritis

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, ex. up and down stairs
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?

You should seek treatment at Hancock Chiropractic if your knee pain persists beyond a few weeks or interferes with daily activities. Difficulty going up and down stairs, walking, squating and kneeling are all signs of knee arthritis. Because knee arthritis is a CHRONIC DEGENERATIVE PROGRESSIVE CONDITION, early treatment can slow the progression of arthritis and alleviate pain, improving your quality of life.

How can a chiropractor help with my knee arthritis?

Dr. Hancock uses non-invasive techniques to manage pain from knee arthritis. Through customized

treatment plans, using the most advanced modalities and protocols we can reduce pain, enhance joint function, and improve mobility.

Knee arthritis treatment could include gentle adjustments, knee joint decompression, softwave therapy, therapeutic exercises, and lifestyle advice. By focusing on the alignment of surrounding joints and muscles and decompressing the joint with KNEEONTRAC knee decompression, we can also help improve overall biomechanics, which reduces stress on the knee joint.

Chiropractic care provides pain relief and supports long-term joint health, enabling patients to move more comfortably and maintain an active lifestyle.
