Knee Pain Treatment in Manhattan, IL

Non-Invasive, Biomechanically-Based Relief from Knee Pain

Certified in CBP, both doctors specialize in addressing the root causes of joint dysfunction by focusing on the spine, posture, and nervous system, not just the knee itself.

Why Choose Chiropractic for Knee Pain?

While most people associate chiropractors with back and neck care, the truth is that knee pain is often a symptom of structural imbalances elsewhere in the body, particularly the spine, hips, and pelvis. When these areas are misaligned, it can place abnormal stress on the knee joint, accelerating wear, inflammation, and pain.

Chiropractic BioPhysics® offers a precise, research-backed way to correct postural misalignments and restore proper biomechanics throughout the musculoskeletal system. This holistic approach ensures that we are not just treating your symptoms, but correcting the source of the problem.

Common Causes of Knee Pain We Treat

Our clinic has successfully helped patients overcome knee pain caused by a range of conditions, including:

  • Degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis)
  • Patellofemoral pain syndrome (runner’s knee)
  • Iliotibial (IT) band syndrome
  • Meniscus irritation (non-surgical cases)
  • Postural imbalances and gait dysfunction
  • Repetitive strain or overuse injuries
  • Compensation from hip or low back issues
  • Ligament strain (non-tear cases)

How We Treat Knee Pain at Our Manhattan, IL Clinic

At our chiropractic center, we begin with a comprehensive biomechanical and postural analysis using digital imaging, CBP posture assessment, and functional movement screening. This allows us to pinpoint not only the source of your knee pain but also the compensations that may be contributing to it.

Your Personalized Treatment Plan May Include:

  • Corrective Chiropractic Adjustments
    Gentle, specific spinal and pelvic corrections to relieve pressure and restore postural integrity.
  • CBP Spinal Traction & Mirror-Image Exercises
    Scientifically designed to re-train spinal curves and posture for long-term joint balance.
  • Custom Rehab Protocols
    Strengthening and mobilization exercises to stabilize the knee and surrounding structures.
  • Postural Coaching & Ergonomic Advice
    Practical guidance for reducing stress on your knees during daily activities.
  • Soft Tissue Therapy
    Targeted myofascial release or trigger point therapy for the surrounding muscles and tendons.

Our goal is to help your knees function better by improving the way your whole body moves and aligns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a chiropractor really help with knee pain?

Yes. Chiropractors trained in structural correction, such as Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP), can help relieve knee pain by correcting postural misalignments and improving biomechanics throughout the body. When the spine, hips, or pelvis are out of alignment, they can cause abnormal stress on the knees. Addressing these root issues can lead to lasting relief without medication or surgery.

What causes knee pain if there’s no injury?

Knee pain without a direct injury is often caused by postural imbalances, spinal misalignment, muscle imbalances, or overuse. Poor gait mechanics or issues in the hips, lower back, or feet can place chronic strain on the knee joint, leading to pain over time. A comprehensive chiropractic assessment can identify and correct these contributing factors.

What makes Chiropractic BioPhysics different from regular chiropractic care?

Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP) is an advanced, research-backed method that focuses on correcting spinal structure and posture through precise adjustments, spinal traction, and custom rehab. Unlike traditional care, CBP aims to permanently correct imbalances affecting the nervous system and musculoskeletal structure, including how weight is distributed through the knees.

How long does it take to see results from chiropractic knee pain treatment?

Many patients begin to notice relief within the first few weeks, especially as pressure is removed from surrounding joints and tissues. However, long-term improvement typically requires a customized treatment plan over several weeks or months to correct underlying postural issues. The doctors will provide a clear timeline after your initial evaluation.

Is chiropractic treatment for knee pain safe?

Yes, chiropractic care, especially CBP-based treatment, is non-invasive and drug-free, making it a safe option for most patients. Dr. Justine Johnson and Dr. Andrew Garner follow evidence-based protocols and conduct a thorough assessment before recommending any care plan. Each treatment is tailored to your individual health status, age, and goals.
