Title: Acupuncture Treatment for Knee Pain in New York


1
Acupuncture Treatment For Knee Pain
2
Knee pain is a common problem which can have a
variety of causes. In some cases, knee pain can
be short-lived, but in others it may last for
many years. Fortunately, there are a number of
effective treatments for knee pain including
acupuncture.
3
What Causes Knee Pain?
  • There are many different causes of knee pain.
    Some of these are acute, meaning that they come
    on suddenly and last a relatively short amount of
    time. However, some are chronic meaning that they
    come on more gradually and may last indefinitely.
  • Some of the most common knee pain causes
    include
  • Muscle strains and sprains
  • Runners knee
  • Patellar tendinitis (jumpers knee)
  • Bursitis
  • Arthritis in knee
  • Patellar subluxation

Muscle Strains and Sprains
Muscle strains and sprains, runners knee, and
patellar tendonitis are often caused by overuse
or injury during exercise. These conditions will
often heal by themselves over time. Bursitis is
another self-limiting condition and is caused by
inflammation in the fluid-filled sacs that
cushion the knee joint.
5
Runners Knee
Arthritis in knees is a result of inflammation
affecting these weight-bearing joints. Arthritis
is a chronic condition and is likely to require
treatment sooner or later. There are many
different types of arthritis and the exact
treatment will depend on which type is affecting
you.
6
Patellar Tendinitis (Jumpers Knee)
Patellar subluxation is a partial dislocation of
the kneecap (patella) and usually occurs as a
result of injury. Once this has happened, the
ligaments that support the knee can become
weakened, making another dislocation highly
likely in the future.

Knee Pain Treatment
  • The most common knee pain treatments include
    medication such as anti-inflammatory drugs and
    painkillers. These can be useful in the
    short-term, but if you have a chronic condition
    such as arthritis, you will need to take these
    medications daily. This increases the risk of
    side effects, and so many people with knee pain
    prefer to seek out natural alternatives.
  • Manual therapies such as physical therapy,
    osteopathy, and massage can all be helpful for
    knee pain. Some people also find some relief from
    herbal remedies and supplements. Acupuncture is
    another effective knee pain treatment, with the
    advantage of having been tried and tested over
    the course of many years.

8
How Does Acupuncture Help Knee Pain?
  • Acupuncture for knee pain works in several
    ways. From a TCM viewpoint, the needles used in
    acupuncture help to remove stagnation and restore
    the circulation of qi and blood around the body.
    If you have chronic knee pain due to a Kidney
    imbalance, acupuncture can also help to
    strengthen these organs and resolve any
    imbalances.
