Hip, Knee, & Foot Pain and NUCCA
Joint pain in the lower body—whether in the hips, knees, or feet—can drastically impact your ability to move freely and comfortably. At Molland Spinal Care, we recognize that these conditions often stem from a foundational issue in your spine and posture rather than just isolated joint dysfunction. As your trusted Upper Cervical Chiropractor in Eatontown, NJ, we specialize in uncovering the root cause of your pain to provide long-term relief.
Why Do Hip, Knee, and Foot Pain Develop?
Pain in these lower body regions frequently originates from:
- Spinal misalignment affecting weight distribution
- Uneven leg length caused by postural imbalance
- Nerve irritation in the lower back
- Excessive joint wear from improper biomechanics
- Trauma or repetitive stress injuries
Because your body functions as a connected system, misalignments in the upper cervical spine can cause shifts in your posture, creating unnecessary stress on your lower extremities. Over time, this stress leads to inflammation, joint irritation, and pain that may worsen with movement.
How can Upper Cervical Chiropractic Help Hip, Knee, & Foot Pain?
At Molland Spinal Care, our approach starts with a comprehensive spinal analysis and postural assessment to pinpoint the true cause of your discomfort. Research shows that misalignments in the Atlas vertebra—the uppermost bone of the spine—can create compensatory stress throughout the entire musculoskeletal system.
Using precise X-ray imaging, we identify the severity of spinal misalignment and perform a gentle NUCCA correction to restore proper alignment. By correcting the Atlas, we help rebalance your posture, relieve nerve irritation, and restore proper weight distribution. Many patients experience reduced hip, knee, and foot pain as their body naturally heals from the effects of long-term misalignment.
