Lower limb injuries are very common among athletes and non-athletes. These injuries, ranging from pain in the feet and ankles to knee and hip issues, can be debilitating. Chiropractors are highly experienced in treating acute and chronic injuries such as knee and ankle ligament damage, plantar fasciitis, leg pain, muscle strains, and joint complaints. For these issues, chiropractic care often is an excellent choice.
Hip, Knee, Ankle and Foot Pain Chiropractic Treatments
Pelvic Pain:
- Chiropractors understand the foundation of the spine is the pelvis. The pelvis is itself dependent upon the status of balance in the lower extremities and the foot foundation. Any structural imbalance – such as an anatomical leg-length inequality, flat feet, etc. – requires compensating movements in the lower extremities and pelvis to minimize stresses and strains that would affect the spinal column.
- Over time, however, specific muscle imbalances and shortenings will develop. Eventually, soft tissues and bones are damaged by microtrauma, leading to ongoing pain and discomfort.
Hip Pain
- Similar in structure to the shoulder, often, our hips become tight or dysfunctional, resulting in decreased mobility and abnormal muscle function. Poor functioning hips may also lead to nerve irritation/inflammation (sciatic-like symptoms) and even back pain.
Knee Pain
- Many people are “knee-dominant,” and place unequal pressure on the knees. If you feel more activity in one knee or thigh muscle (compared to the other) when you climb stairs, you are probably out of balance, and over time, degeneration of the knee joint can occur.
Ankle and Foot Pain
- The foot and ankle work together, providing stability and mobility to allow us to stand, walk, jump, and run. Several bones, ligaments, and tendons are involved in these joints, any of which can become painful under certain conditions.

Ok so I got to my appointment early to complete the new patient paperwork and was immediately met with one of the nicest smiles I haven’t seen in 2 years since the pandemic, Dr. Cox! He was helpful and even made fun of himself about the working of the tablet. The office is immaculate though from the outside of the building I was a bit worried ?I initially went in for the Slim program and was introduced to Rena! What a wonderful surprise, So knowledgeable brought tears to my eyes with all of the new information she provided. I feel safe in Life Aligned hands and will now be a part of their family!

Above what we expected. Both my husband and I have found Life Aligned Wellness more than we anticipated. We have both been to chiropractors in the past but this is so much more advanced with the technology and the techniques both Dr. Cox and Dr. Kabala have shown to help us. We have to drive 40 minutes one way to their office but it is well worth it. Thank you to both Dr. Cox and Dr. Kabala for their services.

I have had years of discomfort stemming from misalignment of my spine. Despite yoga, massage and heat therapy, I still could not relief the nerve irritation, tight muscles, and restricted range of motion. During my first adjustment, which was gentle and not uncomfortable, I felt instant improvement.
I am eager to continue on this healing journey with the talented and compassionate team at Life Aligned Wellness Center.
