Hip/Knee/Ankle Pain

Hip pain can be caused by muscle strain around the hip, direct trauma (injury) to the hip joint or may be referred pain from joints or muscles of the spine. Chronic (long standing) hip pain may be due to 'wear and tear' of the joint (osteoarthritis) or in some rare cases, a progressive inflammatory disorder. Hip pain may be something as simple as a muscle strain or a joint with restricted movement.

Knee pain may be caused by leg muscle strain or injury to the hip, knee or ankle joints. The knee is under constant use and suffers from muscle strains and ligament sprains. The knee is prone to wear and tear and problems with the knee cap often occur due to muscular imbalances, posture and the biomechanics of the feet. However knee pain may be caused by 'referred pain' from the back, pelvis, hip and ankle.

Foot and ankle pain may result from a direct foot trauma to the joints, ligaments or muscles. Foot pain is often caused by fallen arches (flat feet), which place the feet under abnormal strain. However foot and ankle pain can also be caused by injury to the sciatic nerve.

Chiropractic treatment for all ailments of the hips, knees and ankles can restore normal function to the joints and muscles as well as the nervous system using gentle specific adjustments to loosen stiff joints and remove spinal irritation.
