Why Does Knee Pain Keep Coming Back?
The knee absorbs forces of up to five times your body weight when walking downstairs, and significantly more when running. But the knee is a slave joint. It does what the hip above and the ankle below tell it to do. When the pelvis, lumbar spine, or foot mechanics are out of balance, the knee absorbs the strain.
This is why knee treatments that focus only on the knee often provide incomplete relief. At Chiropractor Norwich, we assess the knee, the pelvis, the lumbar spine, and six body systems using the Zone Technique to find the full picture.
Knee Osteoarthritis
Degenerative changes causing stiffness, swelling, and pain. The Zone Technique assesses circulatory and glandular factors that influence inflammation and joint degeneration. See also arthritis and joint stiffness.
Runner's Knee
Pain around or behind the kneecap, worsened by stairs, squatting, or prolonged sitting. Usually driven by pelvic and hip imbalance rather than a knee problem alone.
Referred Pain from Lower Back
The nerves at L3 and L4 supply the knee. When the lumbar spine is restricted, pain is felt in the knee even when the joint is healthy.
IT Band and Lateral Knee Pain
Pain on the outside of the knee, common in runners and cyclists. Driven by hip and pelvic mechanics, not just the IT band itself.
Common Causes We See at Chiropractor Norwich
Pelvic Imbalance
When the pelvis is tilted or rotated, the knee is forced to compensate. This creates uneven loading through the joint, wearing down cartilage and straining ligaments over time.
Sports and Running Injuries
Repetitive impact, sudden direction changes, and training errors. Sports injuries involving the knee respond well to combined spinal and joint treatment.
Prolonged Sitting
Long hours sitting weakens the glutes, tightens the hip flexors, and alters pelvic mechanics. The knee compensates for the resulting imbalance above.
Foot and Ankle Problems
Poor foot mechanics change how forces transmit through the knee. Plantar fasciitis and flat feet can contribute to knee pain from below.
How the Zone Technique Treats Knee Pain
The knee sits between the hip and the ankle. It is controlled by the lumbar spine and pelvis above and influenced by foot mechanics below. Treating the knee alone misses the wider system. The Zone Technique identifies which body systems are contributing beyond what the knee examination alone reveals.
Identify the Imbalance
Zone Technique assessment reveals whether muscular imbalance, glandular stress affecting inflammation, nerve irritation from the lumbar spine, or circulatory restriction is driving the knee pain.
Restore Pelvic and Spinal Function
Specific chiropractic adjustments to the lumbar spine, sacroiliac joints, and pelvis restore proper alignment. This takes abnormal strain off the knee.
Support Recovery
Massage therapy with Chloe can release tight quadriceps, IT band, hamstrings, and calf muscles that affect knee alignment. Guidance on movement and strengthening helps prevent recurrence.

Frequently Asked Questions About Knee Pain Treatment

The initial consultation and treatment is £65, including knee, pelvic, and spinal assessment, Zone Technique evaluation, and treatment if suitable. Follow-ups are £42. No hidden fees. View full pricing.

While chiropractic cannot reverse degeneration, it can improve how the knee functions by restoring proper pelvic alignment and reducing compensatory strain. The Zone Technique addresses system level inflammation. See also arthritis and joint stiffness.
Yes. Massage therapy with Chloe can release tight quadriceps, IT band, hamstrings, and calf muscles that affect knee alignment. Many patients combine massage with chiropractic adjustments.
Yes. Poor foot mechanics change how forces transmit through the knee. Plantar fasciitis, flat feet, and ankle restriction can all contribute to knee pain from below. We assess foot and ankle mechanics as part of every knee pain assessment.
