At Mr. Yu Master Acupuncture & Healthcare, we use a comprehensive Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) approach to support people experiencing knee joint pain, stiffness, weakness, or reduced mobility. Knee pain may be related to degenerative changes, overuse, sports strain, arthritis, old injuries, or age-related wear and tear.
From a TCM perspective, knee joint pain is commonly associated with Qi and blood stagnation, wind-cold-damp accumulation, and kidney and liver deficiency, which affect the nourishment of bones, joints, and tendons. By improving circulation and restoring balance, TCM helps reduce discomfort and support knee function.
