Hip, Knee & Leg Pain Treatment at Guildford Chiropractic Centre
Pain in the hips, knees or legs can have a huge impact on your mobility and daily life. Whether you’re struggling to walk comfortably, exercise, or even sleep, our experienced team at Guildford Chiropractic Centre is here to help.
We treat the body as a whole—identifying and addressing the root cause of your discomfort rather than just chasing symptoms. Using hands-on chiropractic care, soft tissue work and personalised rehab programmes, we help patients regain strength, reduce pain and get moving again.
Below, you’ll find information on the most common lower limb issues we treat at the clinic. Please note that this is general guidance, and a full in-person assessment is essential to provide an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.
Hip Joint Dysfunction
Also known as hip impingement, osteoarthritis, or sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
Hip pain may come from the hip joint itself or be referred from the lower back or pelvis. Common causes include joint irritation, muscle imbalance, postural strain, or wear and tear such as arthritis.
Symptoms may include:
-
Local hip pain or stiffness
-
Pain when walking, climbing stairs or sitting
-
Pain referring into the groin, buttocks or thigh
Our chiropractors use joint mobilisation, soft tissue therapy and strengthening exercises to restore function and reduce pain.
Knee Pain
Including patellofemoral pain, runner’s knee, ligament strain, meniscal injuries or osteoarthritis.
The knee is a complex hinge joint that supports your entire body weight. It’s particularly vulnerable to injury from overuse, poor alignment or trauma.
Common symptoms:
-
Pain behind or around the kneecap
-
Swelling, stiffness, or clicking
-
Difficulty bending or straightening the knee
-
Pain during exercise or after rest
Our team will assess your knee mechanics and muscle balance, working with you on a tailored treatment plan to support recovery and help prevent future flare-ups.
Sciatica and Nerve Pain
Pain that radiates down the leg due to nerve irritation.
While sciatica is often associated with lower back issues, it’s felt in the legs and hips. It can be caused by a disc bulge, muscle compression (such as piriformis syndrome), or joint dysfunction affecting the sciatic nerve.
Typical symptoms:
-
Sharp or shooting pain down the leg
-
Numbness, tingling, or burning sensations
-
Muscle weakness in the leg or foot
Chiropractic care can be highly effective for relieving pressure on the nerve and reducing inflammation through spinal adjustments and targeted soft tissue work.
Plantar Fasciitis & Lower Leg Issues
Including shin splints, Achilles tendonitis, and foot arch pain.
Your feet and legs are the foundation of your body. Pain in these areas can affect everything from your posture to how your spine moves.
We can help with:
-
Heel or arch pain from plantar fasciitis
-
Pain in the shin or calf from overuse injuries
-
Achilles tendon tightness or inflammation
-
Gait and biomechanical issues contributing to ongoing pain
Hands-on therapy combined with postural advice and corrective exercise can reduce pain and restore healthy, efficient movement.
