There’s a horrible cycle that happens when someone has a knee injury.
Pain leads to Less Exercise, which leads to Weaker Knees, resulting in More Knee Pain. Even with no injury, knees get stiff and achey over time.
Fortunately, hope is not lost.
We may never regain the perfect knees we had as children, but it is possible to have less pain, more flexibility, and better strength. What are you missing because of knee pain?
In less time than you might think, improvements to knee pain pay huge dividends towards better quality of life.
Chiropractic care isn’t just for treating the spine. Knees can be adjusted too!
Becky Williamson of LifeSport Bootcamp has a great video about how to strengthen your knees, hips, and thighs. All 4 of these exercises are straightforward, and don’t require a gym membership. The equipment she uses is very affordable.
I encourage my patients with weak or painful knees to pick their favorite exercise to try 3 times a week for 2 weeks, and then we re-evaluate.
