Knee & Hip Pain
Knee and hip pain are among the most common musculoskeletal complaints, affecting nearly 1 in 4 adults each year. When these major weight‑bearing joints start to ache, even simple activities — walking, climbing stairs, getting out of a chair, or enjoying your favorite hobbies — can become uncomfortable or limiting. At Phipps‑Swenson Chiropractic, care is focused on restoring proper joint function, reducing inflammation, and improving movement patterns so you can stay active, mobile, and confident in your daily life.
Why Knee and Hip Pain Happens — and How It Affects the Rest of Your Body
Knee and hip pain often develop because these joints carry the weight of your entire body with every step, bend, and movement. When they aren’t functioning well, the effects ripple far beyond the joints themselves.
Common contributors include overuse, muscle imbalances, arthritis, previous injuries, poor biomechanics, and even issues higher up or lower down the kinetic chain — such as weak core muscles, flat feet, or restricted motion in the lower back.
Because the hips and knees work together to support your posture and movement, a problem in one area often forces the rest of the body to compensate. This can lead to added stress on the ankles, low back, or opposite leg, creating new areas of discomfort or instability. Over time, these compensations can change the way you walk, reduce your mobility, and make everyday activities feel harder than they should.
Our chiropractic approach looks at the entire system — not just the painful joint — to restore balance, improve alignment, and help your body move the way it was designed to.
