Study Summary

The primary objective of this project is to determine whether self-administered acupressure is an effective and feasible self-management strategy for older adults with symptomatic KOA. Participants will be randomized to three treatment groups: pain-relief acupressure, sham acupressure, and usual care (UC). The two acupressure groups will be taught to administer pain-relief and sham acupressure, respectively, on themselves 5 days/week for 8 weeks. The usual care group will not be required to change any of their treatment practice. Outcome data will be collected at baseline, and the 4th and 8th week after baseline.
