Electro-Shock Therapy for Knee Pain

No, really!

Part of my physical therapy is to have electrodes placed on either side of my knee cap and turned on until I can feel the shocks tingling my skin. I have this done for 15 minutes while my knee is wrapped in an ice pack.

Eventually I may also have the same type of electro-shock therapy on the quad muscle in my thigh to help bring it out of atrophy.
