Regenerative Knee Pain Therapy
& Non-Surgical Treatments
Conditions Treated > Knee Pain
When you have knee pain, everyday activities — like getting out of bed, bathing, and doing daily chores — can become an ordeal. Favorite pastimes like biking, hiking, or playing sports may start to look like a distant dream. The only thing on your mind is,
“How do I find relief?”
You might think that surgery is your only option. But what if we told you that we can help you tap into your body’s immense potential to treat pain naturally? QC Kinetix’s therapies help the body restore itself using its innate regenerative mechanisms. These natural pain treatments can help reduce pain in knee joints with few side effects.
Knee Surgery and Its Disadvantages
Surgery for knee pain relief involves replacing damaged parts of the knee (or the entire knee) with high-grade plastic or metal implants. Knee replacement surgery is usually recommended when there is structural damage to the knee — for example, in advanced stages of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or traumatic joint injury.
Knee surgery might not be the best treatment option for everyone with knee pain for the following reasons:
Not everyone is the right candidate for surgery
Many older adults may not be fit for various health reasons. People with morbid obesity, uncontrolled diabetes, or chronic kidney disease might not be eligible for surgery. Secondly, knee replacements usually last 15 to 20 years, after which revision surgery may be needed. Therefore, knee surgery is usually not recommended for people younger than 40.
Surgery has risks
Knee replacement is major surgery and has certain risks, such as infection, anesthesia complications, damage to the blood vessels and nerves around the knee, and deep vein thrombosis. After surgery, your implants may loosen or wear out early, especially if you are overweight. And some patients still experience persistent pain after knee replacement surgery.
Surgery has longer recovery times
The recovery after knee replacement surgery often takes from four to six months, during which regular physical therapy sessions and pain medications are needed. Even after resuming normal activities, patients must exercise regularly and maintain a healthy weight.
Non-Surgical Alternatives to Knee Pain
Contrary to what most people think, surgery is not always the solution to knee pain. Many people can experience significant relief with non-surgical treatment for knee pain. These treatments include:
Medications
Your doctor may prescribe medications such as aspirin or ibuprofen to relieve pain and inflammation in the joint. If oral painkillers do not provide sufficient pain relief, your doctor may also prescribe steroid injections for quick pain relief. However, these medications only relieve knee pain temporarily, and prolonged use can negatively impact health.
Exercise therapy
Customized exercise programs can help to strengthen the muscles that support the knee joint, increase the range of motion of the knee, and assist in the healing of the joint. Exercises must be planned and supervised by a specialist so that you do not stress your knee joint more.
Losing weight
When there is excess body weight, knees have to work harder to support the body. Losing weight helps to lessen the stress on the knee joint and can also help to relieve pain.
Using braces
Knee braces are designed to improve the stability of the knee joint. They help the joint to realign so that contact between bone surfaces is decreased, reducing pain and increasing joint mobility.
“Rather than managing the symptoms, regenerative therapies target the root cause of pain and stimulate the body to resolve the underlying injury or degeneration that has caused the pain.”
Regenerative Knee Pain Therapy
Regenerative medicine is a modern and innovative field that aims to improve the function of damaged body tissues using the body’s own restorative mechanisms or by engineering new cells to replace damaged cells. Rather than managing the symptoms, regenerative therapies target the root cause of pain and stimulate the body to resolve the underlying injury or degeneration that has caused the pain.
One of the most common causes of knee pain, especially in older adults, is osteoarthritis (OA). The joint surfaces in a healthy knee are covered with a protective cartilage that prevents friction between the joint surfaces when the knee moves. In osteoarthritis, this cartilage progressively degenerates over time. Loss of cartilage exposes the bony surfaces, which start to rub or grind against each other when the joint moves, resulting in bone-on-bone knee pain, inflammation, and a grinding sound (crepitus) when the joint moves. In advanced stages of arthritis, there is severe loss of cartilage, and surgery is usually recommended to relieve knee pain
Regenerative therapies help to reduce bone-on-bone pain from arthritis by triggering the restoration of the damaged joint cartilage. Unlike surgery, regenerative therapies are minimally invasive, have shorter recovery times, and have a low risk of complications.
