Knee Pain Treatment in St. Thomas
Non-Surgical Relief for Knee Injuries and Joint Pain
Knee pain can make everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, exercising, or standing for long periods difficult. Because the knee is one of the most heavily used joints in the body, it is especially vulnerable to injury, inflammation, and wear over time.
At Tradewinds Chiropractic, we focus on identifying the underlying cause of knee pain and providing non-surgical, drug-free treatments designed to reduce inflammation, improve joint movement, and support healing.
What Causes Knee Pain?
Knee pain can develop from injury, repetitive stress, or gradual joint degeneration.
Common causes include:
• Ligament strains or sprains
• Meniscus irritation or injury
• Tendinitis or bursitis
• Overuse injuries from sports or exercise
• Degenerative joint changes
• Poor movement mechanics in the hips, knees, or ankles
Because the knee is part of a complex chain involving the hips, legs, and feet, problems in these areas can also contribute to knee pain.
Common Symptoms of Knee Pain
Symptoms may vary depending on the underlying condition, but patients often report:
• Pain when walking, running, or climbing stairs
• Swelling around the knee joint
• Stiffness or reduced range of motion
• Pain when bending or straightening the knee
• Clicking or grinding sensations in the joint
• Weakness or instability in the knee
Without proper treatment, knee pain can limit mobility and interfere with daily activities.
How Our Office Helps Knee Pain Patients
At Tradewinds Chiropractic, our treatment approach focuses on reducing inflammation, restoring joint movement, and improving the mechanics of the knee and surrounding structures.
Your treatment plan may include:
Chiropractic Adjustments
Adjustments to the knee, hips, and surrounding joints help restore normal movement and reduce mechanical stress on the knee.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy may help stimulate healing, improve circulation, and reduce chronic inflammation in injured tissues around the knee.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Targeted muscle therapy helps release tight muscles in the legs and improve flexibility around the knee joint.
Corrective Exercises
Customized exercises strengthen the muscles that support the knee and help prevent future injuries.
Conditions That Often Cause Knee Pain
Many knee pain cases are related to conditions such as:
• Patellar tendinitis (jumper’s knee)
• Meniscus irritation or tears
• Ligament strains
• Runner’s knee (patellofemoral pain syndrome)
• Bursitis
• Degenerative joint changes
A proper evaluation helps determine which structures are contributing to your symptoms, allowing treatment to be more targeted.
