Fingertip relief? seniors test DIY acupressure for aching knees

NCT ID NCT07329023

Summary

This study is testing whether a simple, self-administered acupressure program can help manage knee arthritis pain in older adults. Researchers are working with 368 seniors in Hong Kong community centers to see if learning and practicing acupressure at home reduces pain and improves knee function over 24 weeks. The goal is to see if this drug-free approach can be successfully taught and used in everyday community settings.
