Knee Decompression Therapy
Revolutionary Non-Surgical Knee Pain Treatment in Wayzata and Minneapolis West-Metro
The Brost Clinic is proud to offer advanced knee decompression therapy using the patented Knee-on-Trac system to patients throughout Wayzata, the Minneapolis west-metro, and Minnesota. This cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment provides hope for those suffering from chronic knee pain without the need for surgery.
What is Knee Decompression?
Knee decompression is a beneficial therapeutic technique aimed at reducing joint pain and improving mobility in individuals suffering from knee-related issues such as arthritis, meniscus tears, or other degenerative conditions. By gently stretching the knee joint, decompression relieves pressure on the cartilage and synovial fluid, promoting healing and reducing inflammation. This non-invasive procedure can help improve circulation, increase range of motion, and decrease stiffness, making it a preferred option for those seeking relief without resorting to surgery.
How Knee-on-Trac Decompression Works
The Knee-on-Trac system isolates the knee and offers safe and effective mechanical traction to decrease pain by decreasing inflammation, allowing re-hydration, increasing range of motion and speeding up the healing process. By gently separating the joint space between the bottom of the femur (thigh bone) and the top of the tibia (shin bone), we create a vacuum effect inside the knee joint that brings in more nutrient-rich fluids to the area.
This advanced knee pain treatment works through several mechanisms:
- Creates vacuum effect within the knee joint to draw in healing nutrients
- Stretches tendons, ligaments and other soft tissue around the joint
- Re-establishes natural joint space and cushioning in the knee
- Increases bone growth (osteogenesis) and improves blood supply
- Enhances joint mobility through improved viscoelasticity
