Conditions Treated
Knee Pain
Are You Suffering with Knee Pain?
Knee pain is a common condition that can affect people of all ages and activity levels. It may present as a sharp ache, stiffness, swelling, or instability in the joint, and can significantly limit your ability to walk, exercise, or perform daily tasks. While many people assume knee pain is solely a result of localized injury or wear, it often has deeper structural origins that extend beyond the joint itself.
In many cases, spinal misalignment—particularly in the lower back and pelvis—can play a hidden role in knee pain. When the spine or hips are out of alignment, it can lead to poor weight distribution and abnormal movement patterns, placing uneven stress on the knees. Over time, this imbalance can wear down the cartilage, irritate surrounding tissues, and contribute to chronic knee discomfort or injury.
Sports and high-impact activities are also major contributors to knee pain, especially in athletes involved in running, jumping, or contact sports. Repetitive stress, poor form, and previous injuries can all weaken the structures that stabilize the knee, such as the ligaments, tendons, and meniscus. Without proper recovery or correction, these issues can lead to long-term inflammation and instability.
Age-related degeneration is another common cause of knee pain. As we grow older, the protective cartilage within the joint begins to wear down, leading to conditions like osteoarthritis. However, many people overlook the fact that postural changes and spinal issues often accelerate this degeneration by altering the way we move and bear weight.
Identifying and addressing the underlying biomechanical causes—whether spinal, postural, or movement-based—is key to achieving lasting relief. Chiropractic care, particularly corrective techniques, can help realign the spine and pelvis, restore balance, and reduce stress on the knees—often relieving pain without the need for medication or invasive procedures.
Top 10 Culprits of Knee Pain
Our Solution to Knee Pain
At Optimal Spine in London, we understand that knee pain doesn’t always begin in the knee itself. In many cases, the root cause lies in the spine or pelvis—areas that directly influence posture, gait, and how force is distributed through the lower body. Through a combination of chiropractic care and Corrective Chiropractic Care using the Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP) technique, we help patients uncover and correct the underlying structural imbalances contributing to their knee pain.
Misalignments in the spine or pelvis can throw off the body’s biomechanics, placing uneven stress on the knees with every step. Over time, this leads to joint wear, inflammation, and chronic discomfort. At Optimal Spine, we use advanced diagnostics, posture analysis, and digital imaging to pinpoint these hidden issues. From there, we create a customized treatment plan tailored to each patient’s needs and goals—whether it’s returning to sports, staying active while traveling, or simply walking without pain.
CBP is a science-based approach that not only addresses misalignments but also retrains the spine and posture for long-term correction. By improving spinal structure and restoring balance throughout the musculoskeletal system, we help reduce stress on the knees and promote natural healing. Many of our patients came to us relying on daily painkillers or facing the possibility of joint injections or surgery. After committing to care, they found lasting relief, regained their mobility, and resumed the active lifestyles they thought they had lost.
With three convenient locations across Greater London, Optimal Spine is proud to be a trusted destination for those seeking natural, non-invasive knee pain relief. Whether your pain stems from poor posture, sports injuries, or long-standing spinal imbalances, our team is here to help you move better, live pain-free, and get back to doing what you love.
