While acupuncture is a very effective modality for treating knee pain, without the proper understanding of the different etiologies and causes of knee pain, treatment results will be inconsistent or not effective at all. There is no one set of acupuncture points nor one protocol that treats the various causes of knee pain. In this webinar, you will learn the pathophysiology of traumatic and non-traumatic knee pain, differential diagnoses, risk factors, and anatomy involved in knee pain, as well as assessment protocols and different approaches to treatment.
