MEDICINE’S TRY AT KNEE DISTRACTION WITH A DEVICE

Medical care for most ailments including knee pain is typically medication and surgery. Lately, it has devised a joint-specific distraction device that was not a hit with patients because of its not allowing flexion throughout the treatment phase of 6 weeks. The researchers worked on its design some, but it’s still being investigated to see how patients take to it. (1) Well, chiropractors have a better, more tolerable way to treat the knee with distraction! It is gentle. It feels good. It does not have be a visible device worn everywhere to be effective! It doesn’t involve meds! So good.

Oxford CHIROPRACTIC CARE FOR KNEE PAIN RELIEF WITH THE HANDS

Knee pain treated with chiropractic flexion distraction principles offers knee pain sufferers hope. A new report just published discusses outcomes for 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 precisely, 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 had 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 had adverse effects. (2) Does Cox Technic flexion distraction for knee pain work like it does for spine pain by opening the knee space to enhance nutritional flow, lowering pressure, and reducing irritation of degenerative joints and adjacent bones? A biomechanical study will one day uncover the answer, but for now Oxford knee pain sufferers can appreciate some relief.
