“What is the pressure point for knee pain?”

Every patient knee pain is of diff origin you need to be seen for accurate treatment with acupuncture

There are many points on the body for pain. I encourage you to book a session with your practitioner of choice to get help with relief.

There are 6 channels of Qi flow that go through the knee. I need more information to answer this. However, our healing system is about creating balance in a patient's whole body-mind-spirit system, and that is the type I practice. As such, the magic point is dependent on what your imbalance is, which I don't know from one symptom. As in, the real magic point(s) (usually multiple) for you is the one that treats whatever your imbalance is.

And there are lots of books on acupressure on the market if that's what you are looking for.

Knee pain can be treated in a multitude of ways. The most common would be a local treatment, where acupuncture filaments are placed around the knee joint in surrounding tissues. We can focus on the specific area of pain, while also treating the area in general for muscle recovery, pain, and relaxation.

Massage all around the knees and press on sore points.

We need to find out what kind of knee pain you have because each acupoint has a specific function. If your knee pain is due to arthritis or tendon tear problems, the acupressure point is temporarily reducing the pain. Without treating the source of the problems, it is not really treating your knee.

You should have a thorough check before having a good treatment, you better go see a good practitioner to get rid of this!

I’m sorry you have some pain, knee pain is so horrible. Google these points to find their location and press down firmly for a good ten seconds (heding, baxie, ST36, SP9, & GB34).
Hope this helps alleviate your pain.

There is not a specific point for knee pain. What points to use would be dependent on the location of the pain in and around the knee, the cause of the pain. and your physical constitution...how your energy moves.

Since I am not able to upload any photo here look for the points SP9, SP10, SP11, St34, ST35, GB34.
I wish you all the best

There are a number of points that can be used for knee pain.

The "pressure point" for knee pain would depend on where you might be having pain or discomfort.

The points vary by person, depending on your individual presentation of the pain, not just based on the pain itself, so you would have to see a provider for evaluation to get that specific answer.

There are several points that can be used to treat knee pain. To learn which are best for you, I recommend you visit your acupuncturist.

For the knee pain the pressure points are these around the knee, it is hard to tell you what and where are those points, I recommend you to get an acupuncture book to read and the locations of them.

There are a couple of ways we could think about knee pain:

1. A channel problem
2. An internal problem

Purely from a channel perspective, there are 6 primary channels and 5 of the 8 extraordinary channels running through the knee. In order to even begin to give you a halfway useful answer to your question, any decent acupuncturist is going to need to know where, exactly, you experience knee pain.

From the perspective of an internal problem, there are several organs in the Chinese medical model which are thought to exert an influence either on the knees or on joints in general. These range from Kidney to Spleen and each of those organs will present a certain constellation of symptoms if there's an issue. So, in oder to differentiate where the problem might lie any decent acupuncturist is going to need to be able to ask a whole lot of questions that would be seemingly unrelated to knee pain. We do this because we're trying to get at that constellation of other symptoms a patient might be experiencing so that we can differentiate the problem, get a correct diagnosis, and then go about treatment.

In short, this is a lot more complicated question than you (or really anyone else) think it is, and it's not something that could be reasonably answered by an acupuncturist who has never seen and diagnosed you. Basically any answer is going to be a guess.

Lastly, acupuncture (using needles) is going to provide far superior effects and is going to be a lot more comfortable. If you want to try Chinese medicine, go to NCCAOM.org, use their "Find a Practitioner" lookup and get a list of local, board certified, providers.
