Arthritis, Hip or Knee Pain? Can Massage or Acupuncture Help? | South Edmonton

Joint pain can make everyday movement harder. Here is how massage, acupuncture and manual osteopathy may support people with arthritis, hip or knee pain.

Can massage or acupuncture help with arthritis pain?

Many people with arthritis find that gentle massage, warmth and acupuncture help ease stiffness and muscle tension around sore joints. These can complement, not replace, care from your doctor. Let your practitioner know which joints are affected so pressure can be adjusted.

What can help my hip pain?

Hip pain is often related to tight hip flexors, glutes and low back muscles, especially if you sit a lot or are very active. Acupuncture for hip mobility or Manual Osteopathic Therapy for pain and mobility may help ease tension and improve movement. Sudden hip pain after a fall needs medical attention.

What can help my knee pain?

Knee pain is often influenced by tight thigh, calf and hip muscles. Acupuncture for joint pain or IASTM soft tissue work around the knee may help ease tension and improve comfort. See a doctor if your knee is very swollen, locks, gives way, or you can't bear weight.

Book: AcuRelief 60 min Joint Pain + Arthritis ($145) or IASTM: 45 min (3-4 Small / 2-3 Med Area) ($100)
