Hi, I'm Dr. Chalk, DC

How Active Adults 40+ Are Beating Degenerative Knee Pain in South Jordan, Utah

If you’re over 40 and struggling with knee pain from arthritis, wear-and-tear, or past injuries, you’re not alone — and you’re not stuck. At Freedom Integrated Medicine in South Jordan, Utah, we specialize in helping active adults avoid knee surgery and get back to walking, golfing, and sleeping pain-free using research-backed, non-surgical solutions.

The Real Cause of Ongoing Knee Pain

Most chronic knee pain in adults 40+ is due to degenerative joint conditions — especially osteoarthritis. As cartilage wears down and inflammation sets in, the joint becomes stiff, painful, and swollen. Over time, bone-on-bone friction and poor joint mechanics can make everyday activities miserable.

But here’s the good news: many of our patients who were told they “just need a knee replacement” are now walking pain-free — without surgery.

The Science Behind Our Approach

We combine the latest in regenerative medicine and physical medicine to help your body heal itself. Here’s how:

✅ Knee Decompression Therapy

Knee decompression is a non-invasive treatment that gently separates the joint, relieving pressure and improving space between the bones. This helps:

  • Restore normal motion
  • Reduce pain caused by bone-on-bone contact
  • Improve blood flow and fluid movement in the joint

Clinical studies have shown that decompression can slow the progression of arthritis and improve joint function — especially when combined with other therapies like PRP and laser.

✅ Class IV Laser Therapy

We use a high-powered Class IV therapeutic laser to reduce inflammation and stimulate tissue regeneration. This deep-penetrating light:

  • Increases circulation
  • Promotes healing at the cellular level
  • Reduces pain and swelling

Laser therapy is especially helpful for patients who have chronic knee inflammation or have plateaued with other therapies.

✅ PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Injections

PRP is a powerful regenerative tool that uses your own blood — concentrated and spun down to isolate healing growth factors — to repair damaged tissues inside the knee.

  • Proven to reduce pain and improve function in osteoarthritis
  • Can slow cartilage loss and support new tissue growth
  • Safe, natural, and backed by dozens of peer-reviewed studies

We often combine PRP with decompression and laser for optimal results. This trio is especially effective for meniscus damage, ligament strain, and moderate arthritis.

Real People, Real Results

We’ve helped thousands of people in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond get their life back without surgery. Many of our patients are walking several miles a day, returning to the golf course, or sleeping through the night without knee pain — sometimes for the first time in years.

“I was told I’d need a knee replacement. After going through Freedom’s knee program, I’m walking again without pain — and I canceled the surgery.” – Mike T., 58

Are You a Candidate?

If you’ve tried cortisone shots, physical therapy, or over-the-counter pain meds without lasting relief… there is still hope. Our approach is non-surgical, drug-free, and backed by science.

We offer in-clinic consultations in South Jordan, as well as Zoom consultations for those who live farther away. Let’s see if you’re a good fit.
