During the session the chiropractor assesses knee alignment, range of motion, and surrounding joints, then performs gentle extremity adjustments. Treatment may include soft tissue work, taping, and rehab exercises. Most patients feel reduced pain and improved mobility within a few visits.

Chiropractic adjustments can be safe for some meniscus tears depending on severity and stability. We evaluate imaging and symptoms before treatment; conservative adjustment may reduce pain and improve mechanics, but severe tears may require referral to orthopedics.

Treatment frequency varies with condition, but many patients notice improvement after 2–6 visits. A personalized plan will be created, often combining adjustments with rehab exercises to restore strength and prevent recurrence.

Most adjustments are gentle and well tolerated; you may feel brief pressure, popping, or mild soreness afterward. We customize techniques to minimize discomfort and use complementary therapies like ice, exercise, and soft tissue work for safer recovery.

Yes, adjustments can improve patellar tracking and reduce tensile stress on the tendon. Combined with eccentric strengthening, activity modification, and soft tissue techniques, this approach often decreases pain and speeds functional recovery.

We may recommend X-rays or MRI if you have a history of trauma, locking, instability, or persistent severe symptoms. Imaging helps rule out fractures, significant meniscal injury, or conditions requiring surgical consultation before adjustments.
