Full description

This study aims to explore the efficacy of the Shengyu Decoction combined with manual therapy for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA) using a clinical randomized controlled trial design. Additionally, based on three-dimensional gait analysis technology, the investigators will delve into the biomechanical mechanisms underlying the onset of knee OA and elucidate the mechanism of action of the Shengyu Decoction combined with manual therapy. This will further validate the clinical superiority of the Shengyu Decoction combined with manual therapy in the treatment of knee OA, providing strong support for reducing pain and improving knee function in patients with knee OA.
