At In Town Chiropractic in Alameda, CA, we help patients from Oakland, Berkeley, San Leandro, San Lorenzo, Hayward, and surrounding Bay Area cities find natural, effective relief from knee pain. Whether your discomfort comes from everyday wear and tear, sports injuries, auto accidents, or osteoarthritis, our mission is to restore mobility, reduce pain, and help you live actively without drugs or surgery.
Knee pain can interfere with walking, climbing stairs, exercising, and enjoying life. Left untreated, stiffness and inflammation worsen over time, leading to chronic pain and long-term damage. Chiropractic care offers a safe, non-invasive solution.
Why Knee Pain Happens
- Osteoarthritis: Cartilage breakdown causing stiffness and swelling
- Sports injuries: Sprains, strains, ligament injuries, meniscus tears
- Overuse: Stress from running, squatting, or repetitive lifting
- Poor biomechanics: Misalignments in hips, spine, or ankles stressing the knees
- Auto accident injuries: Sudden impact causing instability
- Postural/gait issues: Improper walking or standing creating strain
