Understanding Knee Pain: What It Is and Why It Happens

Knee pain usually stems from irritated soft tissues (tendons, ligaments), joint inflammation, or cartilage stress. Common culprits include arthritis, meniscus irritation/tears, patellofemoral tracking issues, tendonitis (patellar or quadriceps), bursitis, ligament sprains, overuse from work or sports, and post-injury biomechanics that never fully normalized.

Symptoms can range from a dull ache to sharp, movement-limiting pain. You might notice stiffness, swelling, clicking or catching, instability, or pain with stairs, squats, rising from a chair, or longer walks. Left unaddressed, ongoing inflammation and micro-tears can limit motion and slow healing.

Our approach focuses on restoring healthy mechanics and supporting tissue recovery—reducing inflammation, improving local circulation, and encouraging the body’s natural repair so you can move with confidence again.

You may be a candidate if you’re dealing with:

Persistent pain 4+ weeks

Pain with movement/steps

Stiffness after activity or mornings

Patellar/quad tendon soreness

Meniscus or bursitis flare

Mild–moderate arthritis

Avoid meds/injections if possible

Prefer a non-surgical approach

Our Two Core Therapies

Robotic MLS® Laser Therapy (Class IV)

Our robotic laser delivers dual synchronized light to the knee to drive photobiomodulation—cell-level changes that help tissues calm down and heal. In plain terms, it reduces inflammatory chemicals, improves local circulation, and supports ATP (cell energy) production so irritated tendons, ligaments, and joint surfaces can recover. Sessions are hands-free and precise, so the dose is consistent across the whole target area. Most people feel gentle warmth; there’s no downtime.

Best for: chronic knee pain, meniscus irritation, mild–moderate arthritis/bursitis, tendon strains.

Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave uses focused acoustic pulses to create a controlled “mechanical wake-up” in stubborn tissues. That stimulus triggers mechanotransduction (your body’s repair signaling), helps break up painful adhesions, and promotes neovascularization (new micro-blood vessels) to bring nutrients in and waste out. You’ll feel a firm, percussive tapping; intensity is adjustable. Mild soreness afterward is possible, but there’s typically no required downtime.

Best for: patellar/quad tendon pain (tendinitis/tendinosis), overuse injuries, long-standing pain patterns, post-injury stiffness.

A former champion bodybuilder and lifelong athlete, he pairs a B.S. in Physical Education (SUNY Cortland) with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University (’98)—giving him a deep, practical understanding of biomechanics, injury recovery, and performance.

Since opening the Norcross clinic in 1999, Dr. Joe and his bilingual team have helped thousands of patients with acute and chronic pain—especially soft-tissue injuries from motor-vehicle accidents, sports, and overuse. His care is hands-on and goal-focused, and he co-manages with local medical providers when needed to ensure the best outcomes.
