Knock knees

Knock knees, also known as genu valgum, is a condition where the knees angle inward and touch each other while the feet are apart. There are various causes of knock knees, including genetic predisposition, obesity, and injury.

Both physiotherapy and chiropractic treatment can help with knock knees by addressing the underlying causes and improving the alignment of the knees.

Physiotherapy can help by:

  1. Strengthening the muscles around the knee joint: Weak muscles can cause instability in the knee joint, leading to knock knees. Strengthening the muscles can help stabilize the joint and improve knee alignment.
  2. Stretching tight muscles: Tight muscles can pull the knee joint out of alignment, leading to knock knees. Stretching can help lengthen these muscles and improve knee alignment.
  3. Improving posture: Poor posture can contribute to knock knees. Physiotherapy can help improve posture and reduce the strain on the knee joint.

Chiropractic treatment can help by:

  1. Manipulating the joints: Chiropractors can use gentle manipulation techniques to adjust the alignment of the knee joint, reducing the pressure on the knee and improving knee alignment.
  2. Soft tissue therapy: Soft tissue therapy, such as massage, can help reduce tension in the muscles around the knee joint, improving knee alignment.
  3. Exercise therapy: Chiropractors can prescribe exercises to improve muscle strength and flexibility around the knee joint, which can improve knee alignment and reduce the risk of knock knees.

It is important to note that the effectiveness of physiotherapy and chiropractic treatment for knock knees may vary depending on the underlying cause and severity of the condition. It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine the best course of treatment for your specific needs
