What Is Knee Pain?

Knee pain is a common condition affecting athletes, active individuals, and those with age-related wear and tear. Whether you're experiencing sharp pain around the kneecap, pain on the outside of the knee, or deep joint pain, knee problems can significantly limit your mobility and quality of life.

Common causes of knee pain include runner's knee (patellofemoral pain syndrome), meniscus tears, IT band syndrome, knee arthritis, ligament injuries, and muscle imbalances. Many Overland Park residents develop knee pain from activities on Indian Creek Trail, sports at Overland Park Soccer Complex, or simply from overuse and poor movement patterns.

The key to lasting relief is identifying the underlying biomechanical dysfunction driving your knee pain. At Move Muscle & Joint in Overland Park, we restore proper knee function through precise chiropractic adjustments that correct alignment issues, targeted physical therapy to strengthen supporting muscles and improve movement patterns, and advanced therapies like shockwave treatment for chronic conditions.

Our comprehensive approach doesn't just mask knee pain—it addresses the root cause of your condition so you can return to the activities you love. We serve patients throughout Overland Park, Leawood, Prairie Village, Lenexa, and the surrounding Kansas City metro area.

Our Knee Pain Treatment Approach

We use a comprehensive, multi-modal approach to treat knee pain and address the underlying cause:

Chiropractic Adjustments

Precise adjustments to the knee, hip, ankle, and spine restore proper alignment and address biomechanical issues contributing to knee pain. We assess the entire kinetic chain to ensure optimal function and reduce stress on the knee joint.

Physical Therapy

Targeted exercises strengthen muscles supporting your knee, improve flexibility, and correct movement patterns. We teach you proper training techniques, footwear recommendations, and recovery protocols to keep you active and injury-free.

Shockwave Therapy

For chronic knee conditions like arthritis and tendinitis, acoustic wave therapy stimulates healing, reduces inflammation, and improves function without surgery. Many patients experience significant improvement when other treatments haven't provided adequate relief.
