Yes, we can help with knee pain (including bone on bone)!
Here is a picture of one of the therapies we use in our Knee Restoration Program. This mechanical traction machine uses a gentle pulling force to decompress the knee joint. It’s typically used for people with chronic knee pain, stiffness, or degenerative conditions.
Here are the benefits:
🦵 Reduced joint compression: By slightly separating the joint surfaces, it opens the collapsing knee joint.
💧 Improved joint lubrication: Better fluid movement can support smoother motion and reduce stiffness.
😌 Pain relief: This is likely due to decreased joint pressure and relaxation of surrounding muscles.
🔄 Increased mobility and flexibility
🧠 Muscle relaxation and neuromuscular effects
🛠️ Non-invasive alternative to surgery

Here are a few simple tips Dr. Matthew K. Mortensen at Lake Mead Chiropractic recommends to keep your neck happy and healthy:
✅ Adjust your screen height – your eyes should meet the top third of your monitor.
✅ Sit tall – keep your shoulders relaxed and avoid leaning forward.
✅ Take micro-breaks – every 30 minutes, roll your shoulders and gently stretch your neck.
✅ Stay hydrated – your spine and muscles need it too!
