IT band syndrome is one of the most common causes of outer knee pain in runners and active individuals. At Realign Chiro Physio & Rehab, we provide evidence-based IT band syndrome treatment in Langley using physiotherapy, chiropractic care, and rehabilitation exercises designed to reduce pain and restore proper knee function.
The iliotibial band (IT band) is a thick band of connective tissue that runs from the hip down the outside of the thigh to the knee. When this structure becomes tight or inflamed, it can create friction along the outer knee joint, leading to pain during running, walking, or climbing stairs.
Our multidisciplinary team offers comprehensive IT band syndrome treatment in Langley to reduce inflammation, correct movement patterns, and help patients return safely to sports and daily activities.

IT band syndrome (also called iliotibial band friction syndrome) is an overuse injury that occurs when the IT band repeatedly rubs against the outer portion of the knee joint.
This repetitive friction can cause inflammation and pain, particularly in runners and cyclists. Patients often describe sharp or burning pain on the outside of the knee that worsens during activity.
People seeking IT band syndrome treatment in Langley often report symptoms that start gradually and worsen over time with continued physical activity.
Running long distances or increasing mileage too quickly can irritate the IT band.
Weak hip muscles or tight thigh muscles may increase tension on the IT band.
