Does it work on the knees

I don't see why it would not. The great thing about the starter pads is they are much smaller than when you buy them separate, so adding them on the knees should be simple. Remember, the great perk of this device is you control the frequency so if its too strong, you can always turn the settings down to a more comfortable setting. I use this on my abs so I know you will be fine. For the price this cost, I honestly don't see how you can be disappointed. If you like I have a male friend who has bad knees. I can call him over and have him try it out, its not a issue as he works where I live. Let me know, and best wishes. I don't see why it would not.

Although I have never used the unit on my knee, I see no reason why it would not work. The unit sends electrical impulses that contract any muscle, strengthening the muscle and increasing blood flow to the applied area.

I honestly doubt it. Since the knees is mostly bone, you'll probably need something stronger. I use it for my back and I think it's weak...

i didn't try on the knees. best to buy tens machine and i bought one from www.otcwholesaler.com for my mom. i showed it to the physio and she said it's a good machine. U will need to set the pulse rate and width and the mode. hope this help. My mom told me it relieved her knee pain.

It has a setting for joints, the knee is a joint.. I have fibromyalgia and found this to be a great relief from some of the pain. I am buy my mother in-law one for her back.

I have this exact model but with a different brand name (the buttons are exactly the same) and I specifically use mine on my knee since I had ACL surgery and it's awesome! As per my physical therapist, I connect the wires in an X pattern and make a box around my knee with all four pads.

No. It is good for a short while. I used it for a few weeks and started having terrible knee pain. I haven't used it much since. :(

No. But this work on a pain I had on my knees, in two hours the pain was gone.

Shouldn't make a difference, unless the person bruises easily. It works by cinching everything snugly just below the knee. It is adjustable, but works best when fairly snug.

I have no idea. I have only used it for me knees. Look on Kinesio's website for taping ideas or email them directly.

The gel pack covers about one half the knee. It can be located where you want it.

Yes it does...it is a little hard on the knees and you may find that if you put something soft over the seat like a towel, it is not so hard.

It support the knee well when I have to get up and down. I don't feel pain unless I have to put weight on my knees. So I really don't think it's going to help much with the pain. It does keep the knees nice and warm.

Yes, it will immobilize the knee. You can also set the range of motion, useful for slowly building up motion when you are able to bend your knee again.

Probably very slightly. It does lighten marks and scars on my face so I don't see why it shouldn't work on knees, elbows, and underarms. However with underarms it might not work due to the color of your hair? I suggest exfoliating your elbows and knees, and applying sunblock if you go out.

I have used it on my knee and it appeared to alleviate the pain but not reduce it to zero

You do use the knee pads. I use it for both in front and behind lat pulldowns and it works well.

I don't have knee pain myself, but page 18 of the Instruction Manual shows how to place the pads for knee treatment, so yes, the unit is designed to work for knee pain.

I would imagine so. It doesn't restrict the knee at all, so it shouldn't be a problem. Don't buy too big because it does stretch out after a couple of weeks

It does help the minor pain in my knees. Don't know about major pain issues.
