Special movement exercises for knee arthritis pain relief

This trial is testing whether a specific type of guided movement exercise called Diagonal Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) patterns can help reduce knee pain and improve how well your knee works. You would receive either these specialized PNF exercises or traditional strength-training exercises, and both groups would also receive heat therapy. Researchers want to see which approach works better for people with moderate knee arthritis.

Knee arthritis is a common problem that causes pain and makes daily activities harder. Doctors want to find the best exercise approaches to help people manage this condition without surgery, so this trial compares a newer movement technique to standard strengthening exercises.
