MEDICINE’S TRY AT KNEE DISTRACTION WITH A DEVICE

Medical care for most ailments including knee pain is usually medication and surgery.

Knee pain treated with chiropractic flexion distraction principles provides knee pain sufferers hope. A new report just published reports on 25 patients with knee pain (many with osteoarthritis, some acute, some chronic, even some post-knee replacement with continued knee pain) treated with chiropractic flexion distraction. Overall knee pain patients reported pain drops from 7.7 to 1.8  (1 [no pain] – 10 [worst pain]) in a mean of 5.3 treatments over 3 weeks. More specifically, acute knee pain patients reported pain drops from 8.1 to 1.1 in 4.8 treatments in 2.4 weeks. And chronic knee pain patients noted pain drops from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks.
