Get Out of Knee Pain—Move Better, Live Better, Stay Active

Looking for a trusted knee pain treatment in Little Rock? You’re in the right place.

At Faulkenberry Chiropractic, our Knee Decompression (AccuKnee) program helps patients restore joint health and function without surgery. By combining gentle joint unloading with advanced therapies—shockwave, laser, and electroanalgesia—we address the source of knee pain and stiffness. Our goal is to keep you moving, delay or avoid surgery, and help you live with less pain.

Our care is safe, drug-free, and non-invasive. No pills, no surgery—just real relief that lasts.

If knee pain limits your day—stairs, standing, or simple walks—AccuKnee decompression combines targeted joint unloading with shockwave, laser, and electroanalgesia to calm inflammation, rehydrate tissues, and restore motion. Many patients use this to delay or avoid surgery.

What Does Knee Decompression Do?

Knee decompression is a non-surgical treatment designed to reduce pressure inside the knee joint, improve circulation, and restore healthier function.

When paired with advanced modalities, it can:

  • Increase joint mobility

  • Improve natural movement

  • Reduce inflammation and swelling

  • Support tissue repair and healing

How it Works (3-Step Approach):

  • Shockwave Therapy – Stimulates blood flow and encourages tissue healing

  • Class IV Laser – Boosts cellular energy and reduces inflammation

  • Electroanalgesia – Disrupts pain signals and promotes circulation

Together, these treatments help patients walk easier, climb stairs with less pain, and get back to daily life.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

No. Most patients describe the treatment as comfortable and relaxing. The AccuKnee device applies gentle, controlled traction to reduce pressure in the knee joint.

AccuKnee is designed for people with chronic knee pain from arthritis, meniscus injuries, degeneration, or past injuries. A consultation and exam will determine if you are a good fit.

The system gently separates the joint space, improves circulation, and reduces pressure on cartilage and surrounding tissues. This promotes healing and can reduce pain without drugs or surgery.

Many patients use AccuKnee as an alternative to injections or knee replacement. While results vary, it offers a non-invasive option before considering surgical intervention.

Some patients feel relief after a few sessions, while others notice improvement over several weeks. Consistency and your individual condition will affect results.

A typical session lasts about 20–30 minutes, making it easy to fit into your schedule.
