“my knee has started deciding what I do”
8 quick questions about your own week, one at a time, and you get a score out of 100 and one next step. It takes about a minute. Nothing is collected and nothing is sent anywhere.
The part nobody explained
The knee sits between the hip and the foot and takes the consequences of both, so a knee that keeps flaring is often reporting a problem from above or below it.
Rest settles it and loading restarts it, which tells you the tissue has not recovered rather than that you need more rest.
Cartilage and tendon changes do not respond to anti-inflammatories the way an acute injury does, which is why the pills stopped working as well as they used to.
We look before we touch
Exam of the knee and of the hip, foot, and low back that load it, because treating a knee in isolation is how a knee keeps coming back. Imaging where the exam calls for it, and you are shown what we are looking at.
The first visit is the exam and the digital X-ray. Nothing is adjusted on it, because adjusting before looking is guessing. What the care itself costs is given to you in writing at the report of findings, before you decide.
What we would use on it
Which of these applies to your case comes out of the exam rather than off this page.
Two phases, and you are told which one you are in
Whatever is driving your knee pain, the shape of care here is the same and you are told which phase you are in the whole way through.
- Phase one
Correct what is driving it
Scoped before it starts. You are told how many visits it is built around, what is being measured, and when the re-exam happens, and you get that in writing with the price at the report of findings.
- The exam and the digital X-ray come first, so the plan answers to findings.
- A scheduled re-exam measures it rather than asking how your week went.
- When this phase is finished, you are told that it is finished.
- Phase two
Preserve what has been corrected
A body keeps loading, so a correction is something you keep rather than something you finish. What maintaining it looks like is explained with the reasons on the table, and it is a decision you make knowing what it is for.
- Discussed once the corrective phase is measured, not assumed at the start.
- You know what you are paying for and why, at every point.
- Nobody here will tell you a result holds forever on its own.
What patients said afterwards

Questions people ask about knee pain
Is this an alternative to a knee replacement?
It is not presented as one, and anyone who tells you it is on a web page is selling. What this is: a look at whether the tissue and the loading can be treated, with the answer given to you before you commit. If the joint is past that, you are told so.
What is StemWave and is it the same as shockwave?
StemWave is an acoustic wave device, so it belongs to the same family of equipment people mean when they say shockwave. It is the specific machine this practice has, and it is the one the manufacturer runs its own advertising for. Whether it suits your knee comes out of the exam.
Do you take insurance for this?
This is a cash pay practice. Billing insurance means an insurer decides how many visits you are allowed and what counts as necessary, and it means the number is an estimate until a bill turns up months later. Paying the practice directly keeps that decision between you and your chiropractor, and it is why the plan and its price are put in writing before you agree to anything. HSA and FSA cards are accepted, and Care Credit is available.
