Randomized clinical trial in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Sixty patients will be evaluated, divided in three groups (20 in each). One group A will be treated by dry needling in the vast internal, other group B will be treated with a standardized treatment protocol (electrotherapy and manual therapy), and group C will be treated with hialuronic acid. The investigators want to observe which technique is the most effective in osteoarthritis.
