Knee Pain Is Not Something You Just Have to Live With

Knee pain is not an inevitable part of ageing. With the right treatment, most people see significant improvement — at any age.

Chiropractic Neck Adjustment_edited_edit

47% of UK adults aged 50 and over 

report knee pain in any given year.

1 in 10 UK adults has clinically diagnosed 

osteoarthritis — the knee being 

the most commonly affected joint.

/ Clinical Practice Research Datalink, 2020


Chiropractic Adjustment Session_edited_e

Only 1 in 3 people with knee pain visits their GP 

— meaning most are living 

with untreated, manageable pain.

Are You Experiencing These Symptoms?

Common signs of knee problems

Daily Symptoms

Pain around or behind the kneecap, especially on stairs
Swelling or puffiness around the knee joint
A grinding, clicking, or crunching sensation when moving the knee
Stiffness after sitting for long periods
Aching that worsens in cold or damp weather

Functional Limitations

Difficulty going up or down stairs
Struggling to kneel, squat, or sit cross-legged
Unable to walk comfortably for extended distances
Reduced confidence on uneven ground or slopes
Pain that limits your ability to exercise or stay active

If several of these sound familiar, professional assessment is recommended.

Early intervention leads to faster recovery and prevents chronic pain from developing.

Find the condition that best matches your symptoms and learn more about your pain

Ankle Osteoarthritis

Ankle arthritis can make walking and uneven ground difficult. Build a realistic plan for mobility, strength and everyday activity while considering footwear and other support.

Chronic Ankle Instability

Repeated ankle rolling or giving way can reduce confidence in walking and sport. Targeted rehabilitation builds balance, strength and control while checking for associated injury.

Plantar Fasciitis

Pain under the heel on your first steps can make everyday walking difficult. A tailored plan combines practical load changes, exercise and suitable hands-on care.

Heel Spur

An X-ray heel spur does not always explain heel pain. Assessment focuses on the painful tissues and daily demands so treatment targets what is actually limiting you.

Stress Fracture (Foot & Ankle)

Localised bone pain during walking or running needs assessment before massage or exercise progression. Rehabilitation begins with appropriate protection and a confirmed management plan.

Ankle Sprain (Acute)

A rolled ankle needs more than waiting for bruising to fade. After checking for a fracture or significant injury, rebuild movement, strength and balance step by step.

Hallux Rigidus

A painful, stiff big toe can alter how you walk. Treatment aims to make daily activity more comfortable through footwear advice, suitable exercise and individual support.

Baker’s Cyst (Popliteal Cyst)

A lump behind the knee should be checked before treatment. For a confirmed Baker’s cyst, rehabilitation can address the knee problem contributing to swelling.

ACL Injury / Tear

An ACL injury can affect confidence with pivoting and sport. Get a clear rehabilitation plan that fits your diagnosis, goals and any surgical advice.

Patellar Tendinopathy (Jumper’s Knee)

Pain just below the kneecap during jumping or running often needs a better loading plan. Build tendon capacity with rehabilitation matched to your sport and symptoms.

Chondromalacia Patella

Pain around the kneecap can improve with a clearer understanding of loading and strength. A cartilage label does not determine how much activity you can regain.

Knee Cartilage Injury

Persistent swelling or pain after a knee injury deserves a clear diagnosis. Rehabilitation is tailored to the cartilage involved and any surgical restrictions.

Plica Syndrome

Painful catching at the front or inner knee can have several causes. Assessment helps establish whether an irritated plica is contributing and what to change next.

Sciatica

Pain travelling from the buttock down the leg, sometimes with tingling or numbness, may be sciatica.

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Leg aching, heaviness or tingling when standing or walking may be related to lumbar spinal stenosis.

Diastasis Recti

Noticing abdominal doming or a gap after pregnancy? Diastasis recti is common and does not by itself mean your core is damaged.

Pregnancy-Related Pelvic Girdle Pain

Pain around the pelvis during pregnancy can make walking, stairs or turning in bed difficult.

Degenerative Disc Disease

Seeing “degenerative disc disease” on a report can be worrying.

Lumbar Facet Joint Pain

Local lower back pain is sometimes attributed to the facet joints.

SPD (Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction)

Pain at the front of the pelvis when walking, turning in bed or standing on one leg is often called SPD.

Ganglion Cyst

A smooth lump around the wrist or hand may be a ganglion cyst, but a new lump should be checked before treatment.

Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)

Aching, fatigue or tingling during repetitive work can be frustrating.

Mallet Finger

A fingertip that suddenly droops and cannot actively straighten needs prompt medical or hand-service assessment.

Thumb CMC Joint Arthritis

Pain at the base of the thumb when opening jars, turning keys or pinching can come from the carpometacarpal joint.

Wrist Sprain / Ligament Injury

A painful wrist after a fall or twist should not automatically be assumed to be a simple sprain.

Elbow Hyperextension Injury

An elbow forced backwards during a fall or sport can injure more than soft tissue.

Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy / Tear

Assessment for shoulder pain or weakness when lifting, reaching or sleeping.

Shoulder Instability / Dislocation Rehab

Rehabilitation for a shoulder that slips, feels unstable or has dislocated.

Calcific Tendinitis

Assessment and rehabilitation for calcium deposits in shoulder tendons.

Post-Surgery Shoulder Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation matched to your shoulder operation and surgeon’s precautions.

AC Joint Osteoarthritis

Help for pain at the top of the shoulder, especially with reaching across the body.

Neck Muscle Strain

Help with a sore, stiff neck after unfamiliar activity or a minor strain.

Myofascial Neck Pain

Care for persistent muscular aching and tenderness around the neck.

Upper Trapezius Pain

Help for aching, tender muscles across the tops of your shoulders.

Peroneal Tendinopathy

Pain behind the outer ankle may come from the peroneal tendons. Assessment helps distinguish overload from a tear, tendon slipping or a lingering ankle sprain.

Turf Toe

Pain at the base of the big toe after it bends backwards may be a joint sprain. Protecting the injury early helps guide a safe return to walking and sport.

Achilles Tendinopathy

Pain and stiffness in the Achilles tendon often need a progressive strengthening plan. Assessment distinguishes midportion, insertional and acute tendon injuries before treatment.

Calf Strain / Tear

Calf pain after sprinting or pushing off may be a muscle strain. Assessment helps identify when urgent medical checks for an Achilles rupture or a clot are needed before rehabilitation.

Bunions (Hallux Valgus)

A painful bunion can make shoes and walking uncomfortable. Conservative care focuses on reducing pressure and improving function while explaining when specialist advice may help.

Flat Feet / Fallen Arches

Flat feet are common and often need no treatment. If you have pain, weakness or a new change in your arch, assessment can clarify what support is useful.

Knee Osteoarthritis

Knee arthritis does not mean you must stop being active. Build a practical plan for strength, comfortable movement and the activities that matter to you.

Meniscus Tear

A meniscus tear does not automatically mean surgery. Assessment helps identify the right balance of rehabilitation, activity changes and specialist advice.

Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (Runner’s Knee)

Pain around the kneecap with stairs, squats or running can be frustrating. A tailored strength and activity plan can help you work towards more comfortable movement.

MCL Injury

Inner-knee pain after a twist or impact may involve the MCL. Get a plan that protects the ligament while restoring strength, movement and confidence.

Prepatellar Bursitis

Swelling directly over the kneecap may be bursitis. Checking for infection and reducing kneeling pressure are more important than massaging the swelling.

Patella Dislocation / Subluxation

Rebuilding confidence after your kneecap has slipped out of place starts with the right medical checks, followed by rehabilitation matched to your injury.

LCL Injury

Outer-knee pain or instability after an injury needs a clear diagnosis. Rehabilitation is planned around the ligament damage and any associated injuries.

Non-Specific Low Back Pain

Lower back pain can be real and limiting even when no single structure explains it.

Scoliosis Management

Scoliosis care depends on age, the spinal curve and symptoms.

Sacroiliac Joint Pain

Pain near one side of the lower back or buttock is sometimes called SI joint dysfunction.

Spondylolisthesis

Spondylolisthesis means one spinal bone has moved forward relative to the one below.

Acute Lumbago

Sudden lower back pain can make it hard to stand, bend or get comfortable.

Back Muscle Spasm / Strain

A painful back spasm or suspected strain can make ordinary movement feel difficult.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Night-time hand tingling or a weaker grip? Carpal tunnel syndrome affects the median nerve at the wrist.

Trigger Finger

A finger or thumb that catches, clicks or locks can make dressing, cooking and gripping difficult.

Dupuytren’s Contracture

A firm palm nodule or a finger gradually bending towards the palm may be Dupuytren’s disease.

Cubital Tunnel Syndrome

Tingling in the little and ring fingers, especially when your elbow stays bent, may involve the ulnar nerve.

TFCC Wrist Injury

Pain on the little-finger side of your wrist when twisting, gripping or pushing up from a chair may involve the TFCC.

Wrist Tendonitis

Pain with repetitive wrist movement or gripping can come from a tendon problem.

Elbow Osteoarthritis

Stiffness or pain when reaching, lifting or straightening the elbow can affect ordinary tasks.

Shoulder Impingement / Subacromial Pain

Help for shoulder pain during overhead reach, dressing or lifting.

AC Joint Injury / Sprain

Recovery support after an injury to the joint at the top of the shoulder.

Biceps Tendinopathy

Care for pain at the front of the shoulder during lifting or reaching.

Scapular Dyskinesis

Assessment of shoulder-blade movement when shoulder symptoms affect activity.

Shoulder Tendonitis

Guidance for tendon-related shoulder pain and a gradual return to activity.

Cervical Disc Herniation

Rehabilitation for neck and arm symptoms associated with a cervical disc problem.

Upper Crossed Syndrome

Support for neck and shoulder discomfort often described as upper crossed syndrome.

Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction

Inner-ankle pain with a changing arch needs timely assessment. Treatment may combine protection, support and progressive exercise, with specialist input when the foot shape is changing.

Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome

Burning or tingling into the sole may involve a nerve near the inner ankle. A careful assessment helps identify the cause and when specialist input is needed.

Morton’s Neuroma

Burning or a pebble-like feeling under the forefoot may involve a nerve. Assessment and pressure-relieving changes can help identify the right next step.

Sever’s Disease

Heel pain in a growing child can interfere with sport and walking. Age-appropriate assessment and manageable activity changes can support a comfortable return to participation.

Shin Splints

Shin pain after increasing running needs a careful loading review. Assessment helps distinguish common overload symptoms from a bone stress injury that needs protection.

Metatarsalgia

Pain under the ball of the foot is a symptom rather than one diagnosis. Find out what is increasing pressure and which treatment or referral is most appropriate.

Knee Replacement Rehabilitation

Prepare for surgery and rebuild everyday movement afterwards with rehabilitation coordinated around your hospital instructions, progress and personal goals.

Osgood–Schlatter Disease

Pain over the bump below a growing child’s knee is often manageable with activity adjustments. Assessment helps keep sport participation appropriate and reassuring.

IT Band Syndrome

Outer-knee pain during running or cycling often needs a change in load and a structured return plan. Hands-on care can support comfort while you rebuild capacity.

Knee Ligament Sprain

A sprained knee needs the right level of protection and a gradual return to movement. First establish which ligament is affected and how stable the joint is.

PCL Injury

A PCL injury needs rehabilitation that protects the back of the knee while rebuilding leg strength. The plan changes if other ligaments are also injured.

Pes Anserine Bursitis

Pain a little below the inner knee can come from the pes anserine tendons or bursa. Assessment helps separate this from joint, ligament or bone pain.

Hoffa’s Fat Pad Impingement

Pain beside the patellar tendon, especially when straightening the knee, may involve the fat pad. Assessment helps distinguish it from other front-of-knee problems.

Slipped / Herniated Disc

A “slipped disc” diagnosis can sound alarming.

Piriformis Syndrome

Deep buttock pain, sometimes with symptoms down the leg, is often labelled piriformis syndrome.

Coccydynia (Tailbone Pain)

Pain at the base of your spine when sitting or standing up may be coccydynia.

Chronic Low Back Pain

Back pain lasting more than three months can affect sleep, work and confidence.

Lumbar Radiculopathy

Leg pain with numbness, altered sensation or weakness may involve a nerve root in the lower back.

Postural Low Back Pain

Back discomfort during desk work, driving or prolonged standing is often called postural pain.

Tennis Elbow

Outer elbow pain when gripping, lifting a kettle or turning a handle? Tennis elbow, also called lateral elbow tendinopathy, can affect work and hobbies as well as sport.

Golfer’s Elbow

Inner elbow pain with gripping, carrying or twisting can be golfer’s elbow even if you never play golf.

De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis

Pain on the thumb side of the wrist when lifting a baby, opening a jar or using your phone may be De Quervain’s.

Hand & Wrist Osteoarthritis

Painful or stiff fingers and wrists can affect cooking, writing and hobbies.

Elbow Bursitis (Olecranon)

A swelling over the point of the elbow may be olecranon bursitis.

Skier’s / Gamekeeper’s Thumb

Pain and swelling at the thumb knuckle after it has been forced sideways need prompt assessment.

Your condition, your history, and your goals shape every decision we make.

Start with Physiotherapy

This plan is carefully selected from a range of eight clinical treatment techniques, using only the most effective methods for your condition. Your expected recovery timeline is also recommended based on your individual needs.

Follow-up sessions draw on a full range of clinical techniques, tailored to your condition at every visit. Hands-on treatment is included in every session — including your first appointment.
