Acupuncture
for Knee Pain
Acupuncture is one of the most studied complementary therapies for knee pain, with evidence specifically for knee osteoarthritis.
How it works
Stimulates local and systemic anti-inflammatory responses, releases endogenous opioids, and may reduce central sensitisation contributing to chronic knee pain.
What to watch for
Course of 8–10 sessions typically required for meaningful benefit. Evidence stronger for OA than for other knee pain causes. Choose AHPRA-registered practitioner.
