Knee pain. Osteoarthritis. Common terms. Common conditions
Johnson Chiropractic hears about and helps! Johnson Chiropractic treats Richmond knee pain sufferers with the degenerative
joint disorder called osteoarthritis. Joint tissue damage and pain often
are the indications of osteoarthritis and knee pain.
Richmond knee pain patients typically appreciate
interventions that keep them from surgery. Johnson Chiropractic
presents those for knee pain as well as back,
leg, neck and arm pain.
MEDICINE’S TRY AT KNEE DISTRACTION WITH A DEVICE
Medical care for most conditions
including knee pain is usually medication and surgery. Lately,
it has created a joint-specific distraction device that was
not a hit with patients because of its not allowing flexion during
the treatment phase of 6 weeks. The researchers revised its
design some, but it is still being investigated
to see how patients accept it. (1) Well, chiropractors have a
better, more tolerable way to treat the knee with distraction! It
is gentle. It feels good. It doesn’t have be a conspicuous
device worn everywhere to be helpful! It does not
involve meds! So good.
Richmond CHIROPRACTIC CARE
FOR KNEE PAIN RELIEF WITH THE HANDS
Knee pain treated with chiropractic
flexion distraction principles provides knee pain sufferers
hope. A new report just published discusses outcomes for
25 patients with knee pain (many with osteoarthritis, some acute,
some chronic, even some post-knee replacement with continued knee pain) treated with
chiropractic flexion distraction. Overall knee pain patients described
pain drops from 7.7 to 1.8 (1 [no pain] –
10 [worst pain]) in a mean of 5.3 treatments over 3 weeks. More precisely,
acute knee pain patients reported pain drops from 8.1 to 1.1 in 4.8
treatments in 2.4 weeks. And chronic knee pain patients reported
pain drops from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks.
| Pain Score Drop (1 no pain - 10 worst pain) | # of Treatments | # of Weeks |
Overall | 7.7 to 1.8 | 5.3 | 3 |
Acute | 8.1 to 1.1 | 4.8 | 2.4 |
Chronic | 7.5 to 2.2 | 5.4 | 3.3 |
Additionally,
none of them reported adverse side-effects.
(2) Does Cox Technic flexion distraction for knee pain work like it does for spine pain by opening the knee space to boost
nutritional flow, dropping pressure, and reducing
rubbing of degenerative joints and nearby
bones? A biomechanical study will one day uncover the answer, but today
Richmond knee pain sufferers can appreciate some relief. Johnson Chiropractic
is so thrilled to provide this new approach
of knee pain relief with Richmond knee pain sufferers!
