Knee Pain Therapy
Knee Pain Therapy
A non-surgical path for chronic knee pain — built to delay or avoid replacement.
What is Knee Pain Therapy?
Knee Pain Therapy at Big Mountain Chiropractic is a non-surgical protocol for chronic knee pain, meniscus irritation, and early-to-moderate osteoarthritis. Dr. Kanyon Smith combines Sanuwave shockwave therapy, manual joint mobilization, and corrective rehab at the hip and ankle to change how load travels through the knee — so the joint has a real chance to calm down before a replacement is on the table.

How It Works
Your knee pain therapy program, step by step.
01
Knee-focused exam
Dr. Smith evaluates the joint, surrounding tendons, and the hip and ankle mechanics that load the knee.
02
Shockwave & joint care
Sanuwave shockwave is applied over the affected tissue and joint capsule to stimulate repair and reduce inflammation.
03
Hip & ankle rehab
Targeted corrective work upstream and downstream so the knee stops absorbing the load it was never built to absorb.
04
Reassessment & maintenance
Range, pain, and function are re-measured. A short home routine keeps the joint protected once you graduate.
