Because we work with very active patients who put several physical demands on their bodies, we have become all-too experienced when it comes to knee injuries.

We know you’re busy and ready to get back out there, so let’s dive straight in…
Why Does My Knee Hurt?
This is a pretty common question we’re asked, and there is a myriad of answers we provide.
The knee is made up of bones, ligaments, and tendons (among other things) that need to work in unison for it to function properly. The structure is one of the largest and most complex in the body, and it’s important to maintain it so you can use your full range of motions and movements.
For the more active person, knees are often an essential part of the daily routine, whether that’s for work or play. So, when injured, your lifestyle is put at risk. It’s important to find out why your knee is causing you pain, so chiropractic methods can stop that pain at its core and allow you to find the comfort you need to do the things you love.
Reasons for knee discomfort:
- Overuse of joint or soft tissues
- Torn soft tissue
- Sprain or strain
- Tendinitis
- Runner’s knee
- And more
One of the best things to do when you find yourself with knee discomfort is to visit a chiropractor to ensure your body’s safety. Chiropractic care solutions are a proven way to efficiently find the cause of your injury, repair it, and learn how to keep it from returning.

This is a commonly used solution to shoulder pain; using specifically created handheld chiropractic tools, we can break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions found in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons. The patient will gain flexibility, range of motion, and comfort.
Active Release Techniques (ART) to treat shoulder pain
Our doctors are certified in ART and use proven methods that non-invasively treat shoulder sprains and strains, as well as other musculoskeletal issues. Managing the soft tissues and nerves restores natural movement and balance.
Kinesiology Tape to treat shoulder pain
This tape is used to support injured areas of the body, giving the area time to relax and heal as it provides blood and oxygen circulation. Allowing the shoulder to rest from its normal, everyday pressures and movements, the patient will experience a quicker recovery.
Functional rehabilitation therapy to treat shoulder pain
To benefit patients in their health plan, we provide directed and supervised exercises and stretches, as well as take-home activities to do on your own. We’ve seen firsthand how combining chiropractic care, and rehab therapies can strengthen the body and promote a quicker recovery. Our rehabilitation measures are geared to contribute to longevity and overall well-being.
Cupping to treat shoulder pain
Cups are used to suction the skin of the affected areas, which increases blood and oxygen flow throughout the body. The patients will achieve mobility and feel less pain, often immediately after the service.
To aid us in our endeavor to find you the best, safest, and fastest care plan, we use the Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA). This assessment tests the patient’s movement patterns and helps our team determine the optimum approach to the patient’s unique chiropractic and rehabilitation plan.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
I can't say enough great things about all the staff, they're friendly, polite, engaging and very professional and the atmosphere is clean and bright. Welcoming.
My personal experience is with Dr Mike Smith and Lawrence for movement therapy. They are both simply amazing and I appreciate them both. I personally have many challenges in working out & performing PT. They are both very good at helping me work around these personal challenges. Everyone is very motivating and helps make me want to be stronger & healthier in general (not just to help with a recovery).
And shout out to their amazing MLS laser therapy and amazing laser tech! Wow, that thing is amazing. It helps with pain almost immediately and it helps speed my recovery in only 6-10 minute quick treatment sessions. I know, huh. "Laser-Beam"... Lol
Pure magic.
Don't hesitate to give them the opportunity to help you.
Again, highly recommended.
They are both very personable, and show genuine care and concern for their clients. That, coupled with their attention to detail and thoroughness not only made my treatment successful, but also very enjoyable.
Cannot recommend them enough.
