How Does Acupuncture Help Knee Pain
Knees are particularly susceptible to pain and injury. They are a joint we often take for granted until they no longer work optimally or feel healthy. Maintaining knee health is essential as we age. Take care of your knees today through acupuncture.
Acupuncture can help ease and eliminate both chronic and acute pain. Acupuncture helps increase circulation and decrease inflammation by stimulating local acupuncture points at the knees. Distal points (other points on the body) can also be used if the knees are inaccessible.
Stimulating distal acupuncture points helps move Qi along the channels involving the knees, keeping it flowing properly through the joint.
Distal points also help address underlying conditions that lead to knee pain.
