Joint Pain Treatment in Alexandria

person with pain in their wristJoint pain can make even simple daily tasks difficult, affecting your mobility and well-being. This type of discomfort affects the knees, shoulders, hips, and wrists. It may stem from injuries, arthritis, overuse, or underlying conditions that cause inflammation and stiffness. According to the CDC, nearly 1 in 4 adults in the U.S. (over 58 million people) suffer from arthritis, a major contributor to joint pain.

What Are the Common Causes?

  • Osteoarthritis and degenerative joint disease
  • Sports injuries and trauma
  • Repetitive strain from occupational activities
  • Postural imbalances and spinal misalignments
  • Inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis
  • Nutritional deficiencies impacting joint health
Each joint in your body serves a specific function, and when pain develops, it affects not only the joint itself but surrounding structures as well. This can trigger a chain reaction of compensation patterns throughout your body, which may lead to further issues if not addressed.

Your care plan may include chiropractic adjustments to restore joint function and reduce pain, shockwave therapy to promote tissue repair and inflammation, and massage therapy to enhance blood flow while relieving muscle tension. Spinal decompression can help alleviate pressure contributing to joint dysfunction, while acupuncture may reduce pain signals and support healing. Additionally, nutritional guidance can aid in joint health and inflammation management.

Unlike pain medications that only mask symptoms temporarily, our treatments address the root cause of your joint pain to promote long-term relief and improved mobility.

Upon arrival, our friendly front desk team will greet you and assist with any paperwork not available through our online portal. We also provide a complimentary insurance verification, giving you a clear understanding of your benefits before your evaluation.

After check-in, you’ll be escorted to the exam room, where your doctor will perform a thorough assessment to pinpoint your diagnosis. If additional imaging, such as an X-ray or MRI, is needed, your treatment plan will be placed on hold until those results are reviewed. In most cases, patients receive treatment during their first visit to help alleviate discomfort right away.
