NCT ID NCT07613749

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether using a gentle pulling force (mechanical traction) on the knee before or after exercise works better for easing pain and improving movement in people with knee osteoarthritis. Researchers will compare three groups: traction before exercise, traction after exercise, and exercise alone. The goal is to find the best way to reduce pain, stiffness, and disability in adults aged 50 to 65 with moderate knee arthritis.
