  • Sit for long periods
  • Have a history of joint issues

At The Reading Chiropractor, we take a proactive approach to joint health helping patients of all ages stay mobile, pain-free, and active for longer.

Why Early Prevention Matters

Orthopaedic experts agree: the earlier you support your knee health, the better your long-term mobility. Studies show that taking care of your knees in your 30s and 40s can:

  • Reduce the risk of arthritis
  • Maintain cartilage health
  • Lower your chance of needing knee surgery in later life
  • Improve joint stability and balance

Even if you already have knee issues or a formal diagnosis, the right approach can significantly reduce pain and support healing.

How Chiropractic Care Helps

At The Reading Chiropractor, we assess knee problems as part of a full-body picture. Why? Because pain in your knee may not always start there it can result from poor alignment in your spine, pelvis, or even feet.
Our approach to knee care includes:

  • Chiropractic adjustments to reduce strain on joints
  • Soft tissue therapy to relieve muscle tightness and inflammation
  • Postural assessments to uncover imbalances contributing to knee stress
  • Mobility support to help you move better and feel stronger

We also work closely with local physiotherapists and fitness professionals to provide integrated support when needed.
