Swollen knees are best managed with Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Exercise is best deferred till the swelling is down. Ice 20 minutes at a time, with an hour or two between icings. Elevation of the legs above your heart daily for 20-30 minutes. Compression with either an Ace bandage or a Velcro knee brace (Drug store item) however long it's swollen helps the fluid be reabsorbed. If it's still painful or unstable once the swelling is down, see your Chiropractor, Physical Therapist or Athletic Trainer. READ MORE
Can massage heal shoulder joint pain?
Massage, even self massage can help. In particular, using a ball to to focus force on Pectoralis minor, working on an outside corner and rolling the ball between the shoulder and the wall can help get the resting position of the shoulder back works well. Search Youtube for Coach E, who has an excellent video on this. The other very helpful move is to back up to a wall or door, putting your butt, shoulders,and elbows against the wall. With the forearms vertical and wrists as close to the wall as you can. Then raise and lower the arms. There are often issues with the neck which contribute to shoulder dysfunction. That's where a DC comes in. READ MORE

It suddenly dawned upon him what he wanted to be when he grew up.

Chiropractic is a form of alternative medicine that mainly deals with the diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine. A chiropractor uses spinal adjustments, manipulation, and other techniques to manage patients’ health concerns, including neck pain, back pain, headaches, vertigo and a long list of other ailments and conditions. They aim to improve patients’ functionality and quality of life by properly aligning the body’s musculoskeletal structure and enabling the body to heal itself naturally, without the use of medication or surgery.
