Runner’s Knee and Jumper’s Knee
Runner’s Knee and Jumper’s Knee

It is difficult to pinpoint the direct cause of runner’s knee. In its basic form, runner’s knee occurs when that precious cartilage under your kneecap breaks down and is worn to the point where it is no longer protective, causing pain. Or, it can happen because your gait or biomechanics are off causing uneven tracking of the patella and resulting in uneven wear and tear. You may develop it because of an injury but the biggest culprit is overuse. You will notice knee pain during even the simplest activities like using stairs, squatting, and kneeling. So for those of you who live an active lifestyle, pay close attention to your knees.

Can Chiropractic Care treat Plantar Fasciitis?
Can Chiropractic Care treat Plantar Fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis occurs when tiny tears develop in the connective tissue (called the plantar fascia) along the bottom of the foot. This often leads to sharp, stabbing pain in the heel—especially first thing in the morning or after long periods of standing or walking.

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common and frustrating causes of foot pain—especially for runners, walkers, and active individuals in the Lake Minnetonka area. At Minnesota Movement Sports Chiropractic in Excelsior, we go beyond simply treating symptoms. We help you uncover the real cause of your plantar fasciitis so you can move pain-free again for the long term. Not just relief - RESULTS.
