Reduce Pain and Improve Knee Health Without Surgery

Living with knee issues like osteoarthritis, meniscus tear, or ACL tears can turn daily activities into painful challenges. Whether you experience stiffness in the morning, swelling after activity, or sharp pain with movement, knee pain can significantly impact your quality of life. Surgery is sometimes presented as the only solution, but there are less invasive options that target the underlying causes of knee pain without the risks of surgery.

Conventional Treatments May Offer Temporary Relief, Not a Long-Term Solution

For knee issues like osteoarthritis, meniscus tears, or ACL tears common treatments like physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, and corticosteroid injections may offer temporary relief by reducing pain and inflammation. Unfortunately, these approaches often do not address the root causes of the pain, which means pain may persist or even worsen over time if underlying tissue or joint issues remain untreated. When conservative care or common treatments no longer offer enough relief, surgery is often suggested.

Yet, options like knee replacement or meniscus or ACL repair come with challenges, including a lengthy recovery period, limited knee mobility, and the possibility of complications like infection or blood clots. While surgery can reduce pain, it may not fully restore joint function. After knee surgery, some people may experience changes in the joint over time including stiffness or other functional issues that may require further treatment or additional surgery.

Fortunately, there are alternative treatments that reduce the need for surgery.
