Gaithersburg, MD Knee & Leg Pain Relief Specialist
Suffering from Knee & Leg Pain?
Knee and Leg pain are an increasingly more common problem today and as a result we see more and more patients at our Gaithersburg office with knee and leg problems.
There are many causes of knee dysfunction, most of which are treatable with conservative care such as chiropractic manipulation, myofascial release, and rehabilitation.
The most common complaints relate to ‘wear and tear’ or osteoarthritis and although a condition such as osteoarthritis is not curable, the symptoms can be reduced and the progression of the problem can be helped thanks to our unique approach to treatment.
Chiropractic treatment may well be the answer if:
- knee pain is limiting your day-to-day or sporting activities,
- you have been given painkillers and been told to rest with no long-term improvement or
- you have been told you have arthritis and there is nothing that can be done?
