Chiropractic Knee Pain Treatment Options
Knee pain can diminish your quality of life, preventing you from exercising, working, and enjoying your hobbies. If you want a drug-free and nonsurgical alternative to traditional medical treatments for knee pain, you should consider chiropractic care. At Chapman Health Group, our chiropractor Dr. Todd Chapman has extensive experience evaluating, diagnosing, and treating knee pain in Leesburg, FL. Let’s explore our chiropractic knee pain treatment options.
Electrical Muscle Stimulation
Electrical muscle stimulation, or E-stim, uses a small, handheld device to deliver targeted electrical impulses to injured or damaged soft tissues. By overstimulating the nerves, this treatment stimulates the release of natural healing chemicals and hormones to the injury site. Over time, this treatment can heal damaged tissues, muscles, nerves, tendons, and ligaments.
Therapeutic Exercise
Therapeutic exercise can improve core strength so it’s easier to complete your day-to-day activities without further injuring yourself. Therapeutic exercises and stretches also make your muscles and tendons more limber, which enhances range of motion, balance, and mobility. After a few weeks of therapeutic exercise, you will be able to get around much easier and with less pain.
Cryotherapy, Heat Therapy, and Ultrasound Therapy
Cryotherapy uses extreme cold to address soft tissue injuries. The cold can relieve swelling and inflammation, reduce pain, and stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. Heat therapy promotes relaxation and eases pain and muscle cramps. It reduces stiffness and restores mobility and range of motion and makes it easier to participate in other chiropractic therapies. Ultrasound therapy is very effective at treating calcified deposits that could cause pain, stiffness, and inflammation. It improves circulation and blood flow, relieves pain, reduces nerve irritation, and restores mobility.
CBD Supplements
CBD supplements are an all-natural form of pain relief. CBD, or cannabidiol, is a compound derived from cannabis plants. It is not a hallucinogen, and it will not produce a high. Instead, it promotes relaxation, relieves muscle tension and cramps, reduces pain, and restores mobility and function.
