Acupuncture and massage can help correct the obstructions and imbalances which cause the pain in the knees. When using acupuncture to treat knee pain, I use a combination of local and distal points to remove obstruction, relax muscles and improve circulation in the affected area.
Tuina massage, moxibustion and cupping are also commonly used to treat the pain.
Dependent on the acupuncture theory diagnosis of the pain I will also use herbal medicine for balancing the whole body.
