Knee osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint condition that can cause significant pain and limitations in knee function. At Align Health, we understand the impact of knee osteoarthritis on your quality of life, and our dedicated team of healthcare professionals is committed to providing effective management, promoting joint health, and alleviating pain.
Understanding Knee Osteoarthritis:
Knee osteoarthritis is a common form of arthritis that occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones in the knee joint gradually wears down over time. This can lead to pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced mobility in the affected knee.
Comprehensive Evaluation:
At Align Health, we begin the management process by conducting a comprehensive evaluation of your knee osteoarthritis. Our experienced healthcare providers will review your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and perform a physical examination, including imaging studies, to assess the severity of the condition and its impact on the knee joint.
Personalized Treatment Plan:
Based on the evaluation, we will create a tailored treatment plan that may include a combination of the following approaches:
Pain Management: Various pain-relieving techniques such as cold laser therapy, ultrasound, or electrical stimulation may be used to alleviate knee pain associated with osteoarthritis.
Chiropractic Care: Gentle adjustments can help improve joint function, reduce misalignments, and alleviate pressure on the affected knee.
Physical Therapy: Customized exercises and stretches will be prescribed to strengthen the muscles around the knee, improve flexibility, and support knee joint health.
Weight Management: Maintaining a healthy weight is essential for reducing the stress on the knee joint and slowing the progression of knee osteoarthritis.
Assistive Devices: We may recommend the use of knee braces or other assistive devices to provide support and improve knee stability.
Lifestyle Modifications: We may provide recommendations on lifestyle changes, such as adopting a joint-friendly exercise routine and avoiding activities that exacerbate knee pain.
