Knee Pain Treatments at Core Chiropractic in Waukee
We focus on non-invasive, drug-free solutions to support healing, reduce inflammation, and restore movement. Here’s how we treat knee pain in our clinic:
StemWave Therapy
This cutting-edge treatment uses acoustic sound waves to target inflammation, break down scar tissue, and stimulate natural healing.
StemWave is ideal for:
-
Chronic knee pain
-
Tendon or ligament issues
-
Inflammation and joint stiffness
Patients love it because it’s non-invasive, comfortable, and often leads to noticeable improvement in just a few visits.
Soft Tissue Therapy
We address tension, tightness, and imbalances in the muscles and connective tissue around the knee. This improves movement and reduces strain on the joint.
Rehabilitation Exercises
Our rehab plans are customized to strengthen the muscles supporting the knee joint—especially the quadriceps, hamstrings, and hip stabilizers. This builds long-term stability and helps prevent future injury.
