Tailored knee pain treatment in Cairns

Knee pain is a common physical ailment that can cause disruption to your everyday life. Left untreated, it can put a halt to exercise and begin to infiltrate everyday activities, with simple things like getting out of bed, climbing the stairs, and walking becoming a painful chore.

Knee pain can be caused by an injury or trauma to the knee, which may occur suddenly or worsen over time, particularly in conditions such as tendonitis and arthritis.

At Spinal Works Chiropractic, our care team provides targeted knee pain treatment that identifies the root cause of the pain to alleviate symptoms before strengthening and rehabilitation. Our experienced team will assess your lower body biomechanics, examine your current range of motion, and identify areas of weakness, so we know where to focus and what needs strengthening in order to restore mobility and get you moving again.

Our primary goal is to provide effective and immediate pain relief, before working to deliver a long-term solution. Your journey to pain-free living starts with a personalised treatment plan from Spinal Works Chiropractic.

Chiropractic care for knee pain

Knee pain isn't just a source of discomfort – it can put a handbrake on doing the things you love. Whether that's going for a run, playing tennis, hitting the pickleball court, lifting your kids, or going for a walk with friends, knee pain can be enough to stop all of it.

Knee pain is one of the most common complaints in Australia. Knee osteoarthritis alone is estimated to affect more than 1.2 million Australians, and that's just one of the conditions that causes knee pain. It can also stem from a sporting injury, a workplace injury, or a direct impact such as a fall onto the knee.

Whether the injury developed over time or is one you've been living with for years, chiropractic care is an effective way to get to the root of the problem. Soft tissue work around the knee can help reduce inflammation and swelling, while knee, hip, and leg adjustments can address joint issues affecting the area.

Your Spinal Works chiropractor will work to identify the source of the pain, starting with an initial treatment and followed by a tailored plan aimed at restoring mobility and range of motion in your knee.

Strengthening your knee

Long-term treatment for knee injuries isn't just about relieving pain. It's about creating a plan that strengthens the knee and reduces the chance of future injury.

Our chiropractic team will build a tailored treatment plan, beginning in the clinic before sending you home with an at-home program. We'll show you how to perform each movement correctly and complete the exercises that strengthen your knee and support long-term joint health.

These strengthening exercises provide support to the knee joint and reduce the risk of injuries such as strains, sprains, and tears.
