Knee Pain Relief in Sterling
Many people experience major relief from their knee pain with Knee Decompression Therapy. Using our gentle decompression techniques, we can help you mitigate the pain and get back to feeling great again. Book an appointment now to schedule a time with our team and start your care today.
Knee Decompression Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment option to help alleviate pain and discomfort in your knee. We use a unique machine called Knee on Trac™ which uses gentle pressure to separate the joint space between the bones in your knee. Decompressing this area promotes natural healing and releases the pressure off your joints, sometimes even re-establishing part of the cushioning and joint space in the knee.
Knee Decompression treatment can help you resolve knee pain and discomfort from a number of conditions including:
Knee joint degeneration: This is when the knee joint starts to wear down over time.
Arthritis: This is inflammation of one or more joints that causes pain and discomfort.
Meniscus tears: This is where one of the semicircular pieces of cartilage between the femur and tibia has been torn in some way.
Lingering sprains/strains: Any sprain or strains to your knee that fail to heal properly over time.
How Does Knee on Trac™ Therapy Work?
The Knee on Trac™ chair straps to the top and bottom part of your leg and slowly and gently pulls to create minor spacing in your knee joints. This is generally a gentle and non-painful treatment that takes roughly 5 – 10 minutes. While the machine is creating that space, nutrient-rich fluids from your body fill the area which stimulates blood flow and promotes natural healing.
Most patients start getting relief in just a few treatments. Typically, Knee Decompression will be combined with other Chiropractic treatments to help you achieve optimal health in your knees, hips, and spine. Depending on your health history, we’ll work with you to build the right frequency and treatment plan to get your knee feeling great again.
Benefits of Knee Decompression
The benefits of knee decompression are vast. Some of the most notable benefits include:
Relief from chronic or acute knee pain
Decreased swelling in the knee joint
Reduced pressure on your nerves
Significantly reduced pain and discomfort
Increase knee mobility, function, and range of motion
Knee cartilage repair
The best part is, this is a gentle non-invasive treatment option for knee problems. That means you can resolve knee issues without invasive surgeries or taking addictive pain medications. Sometimes, patients with severe knee issues will feel some soreness after the first few treatments, but it’s typically pretty mild.
Chiropractic care, like knee decompression, enables your body to heal naturally, so you can get back to living a pain-free life.

Dr. Will is amazing! Diagnosed my issue. Treated me accordingly. I felt great afterwards. Using recommended stretches and advice to keep me on the road to recovery. Highly recommend!<br><br>Given the advice and instructions to continue my aftercare during competition prep, I was able to successfully train and compete in Bikini Model bodybuilding. Till this day, I follow what Dr Will taught me and I incorporate in my everyday training.
Best Chiropractor in town! Dr. Wil is caring, compassionate and knowledgable. He used shockwave treatment on the arthristis in my feet and I felt relief immediately. He has also helped me rehab my shoulder so I can remain active and pain-free. I am now able to workout consistently. I definitely recommend his services!
Dr. Will at Optimized Sports and Family Wellness Center is the real deal. As a jiujitsu practitioner himself, he actually understands what the sport does to your body. In one session you can get dry needling, cupping, shockwave, and adjustments, all for a great price. He even shares his coffee. If you train jiujitsu or any combat sport, this is your guy.
Optimized Sports Wellness in Sterling has been my go-to place whenever I’m dealing with injuries from training. Dr. Will is incredibly knowledgeable, especially when it comes to sports-related issues, he’s a jiujitsu practitioner and weight lifter himself! So he truly understands what athletes put their bodies through and how to get them back on track.<br><br>Anytime I run into a jiujitsu injury, he’s my first stop. Whether it’s dry needling, shockwave therapy, or other treatments he recommends, he always finds a way to “duct tape” me back together and get me moving again quickly and safely.<br><br>Most of my family has seen Dr. Will, and they’ve all had great experiences.

Fabulous and friendly! Dr. Wil has been working on me consistently for over two years and my body has never felt better! I highly recommend him, and his practice to anyone dealing with chronic pain.
My son is a young Jiu-Jitsu athlete and loves Dr. Wil. He is friendly and professional, making every visit a positive experience. I highly recommend Dr. Wil to anyone seeking effective chiropractic care!
Great experience! I had an adjustment, dry needling, and cupping, and felt immediate relief afterward. They were professional, attentive, and made me feel comfortable the entire time. Highly recommend!
5 stars. Simply an incredible experience today with Dr. Will at his Sterling location. I came in with a recurring hamstring injury from my Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitions. He listened carefully, evaluated the problem, and provided a thoughtful plan that included both nutritional guidance and targeted exercises. He also treated the muscle with needling and massage, which made an immediate difference. Highest possible recommendation. I’m looking forward to returning for my second session.
Dr. Will has been a blessing. Best chiropractor in the Sterling area, and surrounding area. Has been able to keep me training pain free for quite some time now.
I first went to Dr. Wil because I strained my back, and he got me sorted out quickly. Since then, I’ve kept going for maintenance. Between CrossFit and a sitting job, my mid-back loves to tighten up and he keeps it in check.<br><br>He really knows his stuff. He explains what’s going on, how it connects to movement and recovery, and treats the root of the issue instead of just cracking things and sending you out the door. I’ve noticed a real difference not only day-to-day, but especially during Spartan race training and recovery.<br><br>If you train hard, sit a lot, or just want someone who keeps your body recovering and ready for whatever comes next, he’s your guy.<br><br>And yes… the adjustments are great, but his pour-over coffee actually seals the deal. ☕️😄
I go to the Sterling location of OS and FW and Dr Ashley is my chiropractor. She listens to my complaints and works to remedy them with big and small moves. She even helped alleviate cold symptoms she noticed I had. She is very knowledgeable and explains ailments and remedies. I highly recommend this practice. She has even helped my daughter’s newborns!
Trying to find a good chiropractor in the area was like playing Russian roulette with back pain as the consequence. It took me 4-5 tries before finding Optimized and I’m so grateful I did. Dr. Wil was thorough and patient and I cannot recommend him enough. He’s fantastic!
Dr. Wil was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. He took the time to walk me through my lifting mechanics, corrected my form, and helped me understand how to train smarter with existing knee issues.<br><br>What I appreciated most was how encouraging and thorough he was — he didn’t rush anything and explained why certain adjustments mattered. I left feeling more confident, stronger, and with a clearer plan moving forward.<br><br>If you’re an athlete (especially in jiu jitsu or strength training) and want someone who actually understands movement and injury prevention, I highly recommend him.
I found Dr. Will through multiple friend recommendations after injuring my hip. Highly recommend this team for both injury recovery and general chiropractic or sports medicine maintenance. I now recommend him to all of my friends!
Dr. Will is fantastic.... his knowledge and love for helping people is second to none. He listens to you, you never feel like you're a number being rushed in and out. He takes the time to understand and comes up with a plan. He has helped me with my hand and my back, I figured I was going to need surgery... nope, Dr. Will for the win... thanks so much.

Their expertise, compassion, and commitment to patient health make them the best in the field.
I'm very happy with Dr.Wil's service. He saw me immediately when I hurt my back. He explained my injury and what he is doing to help me, as well as giving me exercise and instructions on what I can do at home to help with my injury.
I visit Optimized Sports and Family Wellness because I injured my back. I was in so much pain that I could barely walk, but Dr. Wilmer Melendez Negron at Optimized Sports and Family Wellness worked wonders! He gave me dry needling and shockwave treatment, and the relief was almost immediate.<br><br>Dr. Melendez Negron is incredibly skilled, compassionate, and truly dedicated to his patients. If you're dealing with pain, I can't recommend him enough. His treatments have made a huge difference for me!
This was my initial assessment visit with Dr. Mel. I immediately felt at ease with him. He is very knowledgeable and explains his plan for me very clearly outlining both the plan and other things for which he was watching (potential risks), etc. Something I REALLY liked is how he put a limit on the number of visits after which I should notice a marked improvement, and what he would recommend after that. This impressed me as much as his knowledge - he said upfront that this wasn't going to be a continuing saga ! Thus far I have only good things to say about Dr. Mel!
I highly recommend Wil. I strained/ pinched my upper back during training and was unable to turn my head for over a week before seeing him. He did an adjustment, dry needles, electro shock and cupping.<br><br>I couldn't lift my head in the morning and returned to doing power cleans the following day. Pretty incredible experience and the new facility is great!
Dr Ash is the best! Long Covid left me with migraines, brain fog and vestibular disturbance. My primary care provider suggested Cranial Sacral Massage to help with my issues. Dr Ash is extremely knowledgeable about this type of treatment, as well as other chiropractic methods to improve my health. She is kind, through, never rushes, explains everything and truly cares about her patients. I highly recommend her!<br>I also see Dr Will and he is also a fantastic chiropractor. I've been doing Brazilian Jujitsu for 5 years and he always knows how to treat my injuries! He educates me on prevention and training smart.<br>Fabulous providers!
Highly recommend Dr. Wil. He’s very knowledgeable and does a verity of treatments including acupuncture and cupping. I know once I leave his office that I will feel great I no time.
Dr Will is the best, he is truly caring and always give his time and dedication to make sure I’m feeling better each visit. Thank you for all you do at optimized sports and wellness!
Dr. Wil is awesome! Knowledgeable, patient with excellent bedside manner. Love his positive energy and holistic approach - healing the whole person during his treatments.
Dr. Wil is a miracle worker. Every time I see him, I leave feeling 100% better than when I arrived. I’m excited to see Dr. Ashley as well since I’m pregnant and she offers a wide range of pregnancy services and expertise! I absolutely love this practice!
Dr. Will is the best! He is very friendly, humble, efficient, and comprehensive with his treatments. He offers a variety of treatment options (soft tissue, active release, dry needling, cupping, shockwave, you name it) and applies them during the visits as needed. I train xfit about 5-6x a weeks. I went to him with an injured shoulder followed by an injured ankle and he tended to all my injuries without any hesitation. Needless to say, I have an ongoing back issue, the last two chiros had a hard time adjusting my right back cuz it's a bit more tight and sometimes I fight it. Dr. Will was actually able to adjust my entire back including the right side that is tighter. He truly cares about the patient recovering from their injuries. He also shares good info about recovery, supplements, and explains why we need it.
Been with doctor will like a year,súper profesional.<br>Take care all my pain,soreness and any that your body need..for me he is the best in the area . 💯 recommend Dr will at OPTIMIZED SPORT AND FAMILY..
After consecutive years of injuries and unfortunate events, I was unable to be on my feet for more than 20 minutes without pain, regardless of what activity I was doing. As someone who runs and exercises to alleviate stress, this was a monumental loss for me. Dr. Wil provided me with an earnest ear and then a thorough rehabilitation plan to get me back on my feet (literally). I’m running again because of him. Thank you, Dr. Wil.
Dr. Wil is always so welcoming, with a big smile and a cup of coffee. He listens to all of my health concerns and always gives me the best advice to help me reduce my back pain. 100% recommended!
Dr.Wil has been great in helping in my recovery. I suffer from lower back pain and elbow pain training in both weight lifting and Jujitsu. He is extremely knowledgeable and caters to your specific needs. He would prescribe some homework exercises which helped me recover/relieve my pains while still allowing me to train.
My friend recommended Dr. Wil after I kept injuring myself or had sore/tight places after training for competitions in CrossFit. He helped me get back to training and I even continued to go just for regular maintenance. Best part is that he listens to what I say and what is bothering me, helps mitigate anything possible, and gives homework to do so you improve positions/mobility. Plus, he always got coffee you can steal and honestly is just a great person. Thanks Doc!
Dr. Will was the only thing that got me through my marathon training and across the finish line. Would recommend him to anyone looking to get past a nagging pain point!
Dr. Will has been a godsend. He's not only incredibly knowledgeable but he also takes the time to listen and fully understand what the issues are. It definitely helped that he had similar injuries and also trains in BJJ (which is how I was injured) so he knew what needed to be done. He gives out homework that adds to his body of work and has more than diminished my overall daily pain. I keep seeing him for tune-ups and to simply get coffee recommendations!
Dr Will is an excellent care provider! He essentially fixes every physical ailment I encounter while working out. Dry needling and adjustments have done wonders for me!
I came in with pain from an old and new injury. I left with full movement in both areas. I Highly recommend Dr. Will for his wonderful bedside manner and the way he practices.
I’ve been having Neck, knee, and Shoulder issues for years due to training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu; Dr. Will not only keeps me on the mats, but has single handily kept me from needing surgery! His knowledge and passion is unmatched. The level of professionalism is comforting as he is always learning and staying with innovation in this field! A true gem! Thank you!
