growing too fast, but I would be surprised if a doctor would not have
been able to diagnose it. I have a client in his 30s who has this.
Sometimes the problems go away after the growth is finished, but in
other cases it does not. Because the pain is in the back of the knee,
I would also ask whether this lady has partially or fully torn her ACL
or MCL, or the meniscus in the knee. These tendons are stabilizers in
the knee. An orthopedic surgeon would be able to diagnose this, but it
would be evident by the pain, as well as excessive flexibility in the
joint (side-to-side or back-to-front). If only one knee is affected, I
would be highly suspicious of a tendon tear. If both are affected,
then it might be Osgood-Schlatter.
In addition to the oils described above, I would suggest localized Far
Infrared therapy. My Osgood-Schlatter client has had excellent success
with a Back on Track knee brace (you can see these on my website, but
I can only sell this line in Canada). The knee brace reflects your
body heat back to you in a Far Infrared wavelength, a very healing
energy that increases blood circulation to allow more blood (with
oxygen and nutrients) to flow to the affected area. These products are
used throughout the equestrian and dog sport worlds with great
success. There is no placebo effect with animals! If it works for an
animal, it works! I find that FIR therapy complements aromatherapy
very well.
I hope your client finds some relief soon!
