A non-surgical path to knee comfort
Knee decompression gently creates space within the joint to relieve pressure and support the cartilage, and we pair it with laser and other therapies as needed. The goal is to help you stay active and keep the knees you have, without surgery.

Watch: non-surgical knee care explained
What is happening inside a worn knee
When cartilage thins and joint space narrows, the bones grind and the knee becomes stiff and painful. Decompression works to reopen that space so the joint can rehydrate and move better.
