Pain Myth Busted: Knee Pain is NOT Inevitable

Knee pain affects more than 25% of us worldwide. Your knees, which operate much like a door hinge, bear the brunt of every step you take, so, it’s no wonder that alignment issues, and wear and tear can leave them aching.

Now, let’s talk numbers. It turns out that one pound of body weight actually translates to about four pounds of pressure on your knees – wow! Needless to say, making sure they get the attention they need is important.

The good news? These joints are designed to last a lifetime if you take care of them, and that’s exactly what we’re here to help you do.

And get this. Every step you take transfers force from the bottom of your foot to your knee. It’s not uncommon for back and hip issues and even faulty footwear to lead to knee pain and chronic discomfort.

Paying attention to your footwear and ensuring your low back and hips are moving freely are all essential to your overall knee health. And whether you need and adjustment or footwear advice, we’re here to help.
