Knee pain is a common complaint that can affect people of all ages, from athletes and runners to office workers and active retirees. Whether your symptoms began gradually or followed an injury, knee pain can make walking, climbing stairs, exercising, and daily activities uncomfortable.
At Well Spine Chiropractic, we provide evidence-informed chiropractic care for people experiencing knee pain, stiffness, reduced mobility, and sports-related injuries. Our goal is to identify contributing factors, reduce pain, and help restore function so you can return to the activities you enjoy.
Common Symptoms of Knee Pain
You may benefit from an assessment if you experience:
- Pain when walking or running
- Pain climbing or descending stairs
- Knee stiffness
- Pain during squatting or lunging
- Discomfort after prolonged sitting
- Pain around or behind the kneecap
- Swelling around the knee
- Reduced knee mobility
- Sports-related knee pain
Every case is different, which is why a thorough assessment is important before beginning care.
What Causes Knee Pain?
Knee pain can develop from a variety of factors, including:
- Running and sporting activities
- Overuse injuries
- Poor lower limb biomechanics
- Muscle imbalances
- Patellofemoral joint irritation
- Tendon irritation
- Previous injuries
- Reduced hip or ankle mobility
- Training errors or sudden increases in activity
Often, multiple factors contribute to the development of knee pain.
Common Knee Conditions We See
Runner’s Knee
Runner’s knee is a common term used to describe pain around the kneecap, often aggravated by running, stairs, squatting, or prolonged sitting.
Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
Patellofemoral pain syndrome commonly presents as pain around or behind the kneecap and may be associated with lower limb biomechanics, muscle imbalance, and activity-related loading.
Tendon-Related Knee Pain
Tendon irritation may affect structures such as the patellar tendon and can occur following repetitive loading, jumping, running, or sporting activities.
IT Band-Related Knee Pain
Pain on the outside of the knee may sometimes be associated with iliotibial band (ITB) irritation, particularly in runners and active individuals.
Our Approach to Knee Pain
At Well Spine Chiropractic, treatment is tailored to the individual following a comprehensive assessment.
Depending on your presentation, care may include:
- Joint mobilisation techniques
- Soft tissue therapy
- Trigger point release
- Dry needling (where appropriate)
- Stretching and mobility exercises
- Rehabilitation programs
- Biomechanical assessment
- Activity modification advice
Our focus is to help reduce pain, improve movement, and support long-term recovery.
Knee Pain and Whole-Body Movement
The knee functions as part of a larger movement system.
Hip strength, ankle mobility, foot mechanics, and overall movement patterns can all influence knee function. For this reason, our assessment considers the entire lower limb rather than focusing solely on the knee itself.
Identifying and addressing contributing factors is often an important part of recovery.
