MEDICINE’S TRY AT KNEE DISTRACTION WITH A DEVICE

Medical care for most complaints including knee pain is typically medication and surgery. Recently, it has created a joint-specific distraction device that wasn’t a hit with patients because of its not allowing flexion during the 6 weeks of treatment. The researchers worked on its design a bit, but it’s still being checked to see how patients accept it. (1) Well, chiropractors have a better, more tolerable way to treat the knee with distraction! It is soothing. It feels good. It does not have be a visible device worn everywhere to be effective! It does not involve meds! So good.

McHenry CHIROPRACTIC CARE FOR KNEE PAIN RELIEF WITH THE HANDS

Knee pain treated with chiropractic flexion distraction principles provides knee pain sufferers hope. A new study 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 described 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.

	Pain Score Drop (1 no pain - 10 worst pain)	# of Treatments	# of Weeks
Overall	7.7 to 1.8	5.3	3
Acute	8.1 to 1.1	4.8	2.4
Chronic	7.5 to 2.2	5.4	3.3

As a bonus, no one experienced adverse side-effects. (2) Does Cox Technic flexion distraction for knee pain work like it does for spine pain by gapping the knee space to enhance nutritional flow, dropping pressure, and lessening irritation of degenerative joints and surrounding bones? The biomechanics will one day be revealed, but today McHenry knee pain sufferers can enjoy some relief. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic is so thrilled to share this new method of knee pain relief with McHenry knee pain sufferers!
