CHRONIC KNEE PAIN TREATMENT
FOR ALBANY & LATHAM, NY
INNOVATIVE CHRONIC KNEE PAIN TREATMENT PROGRAM IN CAPITAL REGION
The Chronic Knee Treatment Program is an advanced, innovative approach specifically for patients whose knee pain has become an ongoing chronic problem and is impacting their ability to live the active lifestyle they want.
Many of these patients have tried the traditional therapy methods, pain medications, injections, and even surgeries and are still suffering.
There is such a high level of success with this program because of: 1) Evaluation for factors that may contribute to the root cause(s); 2) Determine proper program utilizing the proper advanced treatment technologies and approaches specifically for those patients who have been dealing with ongoing, chronic knee pain and have not had a successful outcome from medications, injections, general physical therapy/chiropractic type treatments and sometimes even after surgeries.
The Chronic Knee Pain Program helps patients regain a better quality of life without the chronic overuse of medications, injections, and/or surgery.
Common conditions with these patients include:
● Degenerative joint disease of the knee
● Osteoarthritis of the knee
● Patellofemoral Pain syndromes
● Bursitis
● Chondromalacia Patella
● Generalized chronic knee pain
We continually implement the most cutting-edge treatment, technologies, and approaches, but it starts with the initial consultation to pinpoint the different contributing factors of each individual case to then determine if the patient's case can be accepted for the Chronic Knee Pain Program.
The initial evaluation not only helps determine a patient's eligibility for the Chronic Knee Pain Program, but also helps determine the right treatment technologies and approaches and ultimately the highest possibility of success. Many times, previous treatment attempts simply have not addressed all the different underlying factors of the condition.
We look forward to working with those patients who are selected as strong candidates for these treatment programs and are also highly motivated to take the necessary action steps for maximizing long-term success. We want to help as many chronic knee pain sufferers as possible with our professional chiropractor and pain management services.
PATIENT SUCCESS
“Pain in my left knee prevented me from what I enjoyed doing! I tried injections, acupuncture, physical therapy. (Then) I was recommended to Dr. Milham. His concern and his whole staff were wonderful. Knee decompression made a world of difference. I am very thankful I chose this method of rehab! I have recommended Dr. Milham to friends and family.”
- Leonard M.
“I participated in the knee rehabilitation program. This program was fantastic. I feel no pain when walking or running, can do stairs, can bend down. I feel like I have my life back and am so grateful to Dr. Milham and these alternative treatments! This was all done without medication or surgery. I would absolutely recommend this to others.”

Knee Decompression Therapy
Chronic knee problems often involve a stress/pressure component on the structures on the knee joint involving synovial fluid movement/mobility, meniscus, soft tissue adhesions/scar tissue, and general knee range of motion. This makes it difficult for full healing to occur.
Knee decompression therapy is an innovative and advanced treatment approach which gives us the ability to reverse the compressive loading to the knee and treat the components of these nagging, chronic knee conditions.
Laser Therapy
Our Class IV and III B Lasers (high-powered and moderate-powered) assist in the healing of these types of chronic conditions at the cellular level by stimulating the photoreceptors in the mitochondria. This results in increased ATP (adenosine triphosphate) energy and DNA synthesis of the cell, leading to improved firing pattern of nerves, as well as tissue healing (including repair of arthritic cartilage of the knee):
- Treats pain and inflammation
- Treats soft tissue injuries
- Pre- and Post-surgical treatment
- Accelerates healing process
Trigenics
Trigenics is a cutting-edge neuro-kinetic treatment and training system which assists in the rehabilitation of chronic knee conditions, including pain syndromes, as well as movement and strength dysfunctions.
Electric Muscle Stimulation
Different specific electric stimulation treatments (Interferential Current, Pre-mod, and/or Russian Stim) are utilized for different chronic knee conditions for:
● Vascular circulation ● Contractile tissue (muscle and tendon) strengthening ● Treats pain and inflammation
● Soft tissue rehabilitation
Soft Tissue Adhesion Reduction Therapy
Soft tissue therapy techniques assist in the "breaking up" of adhesions and/or scar tissue that can form in the soft tissue (muscle, tendon, ligament, and connective tissue) in chronic injuries, traumas, and even postural stresses and strains.
Biomechanical Rebalancing
Maximizing the biomechanical function of the locomotive and general loading systems of the hips and lumbo-pelvic regions can have a significant impact on the distribution of the knees. Addressing this can have a significant impact on the short- and long-term success of the chronic knee pain sufferer.
Joint Stability Exercise Rehabilitation
Another important factor ultimately in the health of the knee is to optimize its strength, flexibility, and proprioception (neurological sensory input which contributes to the body’s sense of position and movement). This is all important for the knee to get and stay well.
