I have gone through your query and understand your concern. Arthritis is a progressive degenerative condition that is with ageing we lose the protective cartilage.The cartilage if lost once it can not be regenerated back by any method.Hence, acupuncture (related to relieve pain of nerve and muscle) is not helpful in arthritis.
Hope I have answered your query. I shall be glad to answer any further query.

Brief Answer:
Acupuncture alone may not be sufficient

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Its good to see you
I have following suggestions for her-
1.Regular exercises for knee,maintain weight as per height,Avoid sitting on floor (cross leg/squatting) helps in control of knee pain.
2.Interarticular injection in knee (Synvisc )also help in early arthritis so does the capsule Rejoint.
Weight reduction remains the mainstay treatment to prevent onset and delay progression of arthritis. For weight reduction acupuncture alone will not be sufficient,it has to be supplemented by diet control and exercises.
Hope this suffices.
Take care
