What If your knee pain was really caused by your ankle?

The average person walks close to 6,000 steps a day, and the ankle is a complicated joint that has to endure motion of forward, backward and even sideways while carrying our full body weight. 

Any problems or injuries of your ankle can cause additional trouble in other areas of the body, such as your knees.  Where you feel pain may not be where your problem started.

An example of a problem like this is you stepped off of a curb and twisted your foot and ankle.  Eventually, the foot and ankle problem seems to clear up, but later severe knee pain sets in.  The muscles in your ankle that got hurt can change how your leg bones and joints move.  This can cause muscles to weaken and your knee to become weak, unstable, and painful. 

You may feel that you may be a candidate for injections or surgery, but there is nonsurgical, drug-free treatment that works – The Busch Stem Cell Stimulation Protocol. The Busch Stem Cell Stimulation Protocol is an effective alternative to surgery and other invasive procedures for chronic knee pain conditions. It uses multiple therapies including cold laser therapy, low-level light therapy, nutrition, and chiropractic techniques to help relieve your pain.

Whether your knee pain is caused by your ankle, arthritis, a meniscus tear, or other condition, contact Busch Chiropractic today to learn more about our nonsurgical treatment for knee pain.
