Knee Decompression Therapy in Spokane Valley WA

Many people in think that chiropractors in Spokane Valley WA only treat spine-related conditions, but often chiropractic care can help with other extremity-related problems too such as knee pain. Knee pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems that people face.

How can we help in Spokane Valley WA

The most common reason for getting knee replacement surgery is simply because the knee joint has completely worn down. The joint space is gone, the menisci have been worn down, and the femur and tibia bones are basically touching. This operation uses hardware that basically “replaces” the knee joint space altogether. It is a costly maneuver and doesn’t always lead to pain relief for sufferers of this type of knee pain. At River City Chiropractic in Spokane Valley WA we utilize technology that decompresses the knee joint opens up the joint spacing, and stimulates the healing process. This device is known as the Knee-On-Trac, and it is the only product on the market of its kind.

During treatment on the Knee-On-Trac, you sit comfortably in a chair with your knee secured to the device. The device will slowly and gently stretch the knee back and forth across a 5-10 minute period. This treatment has been shown to decrease inflammation, increase hydration to the joint, increase knee range of motion, and speed up the healing process. In our treatment programs, we will take you through a series of visits that will provide regular care to the knee to help restore motion and function to the affected knee joint.
