The Bottom Line:

If you're facing surgery and want to explore alternatives first, or if you've been told "there's nothing we can do except manage pain," non-invasive options may give you the relief you're looking for—without going under the knife.

Your body has remarkable healing capacity when given the right support. That's what we do at Hecker Sports Medicine™.

Knee pain isn't always a knee problem. It might be:

- Hip weakness causing compensation
- Ankle instability affecting alignment
- Core strength issues

Your body is interconnected. Treating only the pain point often misses the root cause—and the pain returns.

At Hecker Sports Medicine™, we assess the entire system to find what's really causing your issue.

The Story on How the Body Truly Heals

10/23/2025

It's getting cold here in Fort Collins. Some of you might be feeling it in your bones and joints.

Why does this occur?

When the temperatures drop, our blood vessels constrict, blood flow is reduced, nerves become more sensitive, and muscles and joints stiffen. On top of that, cold thickens synovial fluid, which limits movement and increases discomfort when you move.

If you have an underlying condition, this can be extremely painful.

You might have been told surgery or prescription medications are your only options to deal with this pain.

Here at Hecker Sports Medicine, we operate with the mentality that your body can heal with that right pillars: stabilize, stimulate, strengthen, activity. There is hope--without surgery.
