Advanced Injection Treatments for Pain Relief

Conditions Treated:

Steroid injections are effective for reducing inflammation and pain in conditions such as:

• Osteoarthritis of the shoulder, knee and hips

• Tendinitis (e.g., rotator cuff tendinitis, Achilles tendinitis, Tennis elbow, Golfer's elbow, Plantar fasciitis)

• Bursitis of the elbow, knee and hips

• Frozen shoulder

• Arthritis (Rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis types)

​

Benefits:

• Rapid Pain Relief: Steroid injections quickly reduce inflammation, providing fast relief from pain and swelling

• Improved Mobility: Decreased pain leads to improved joint function and mobility.

• Minimally Invasive: A quick procedure with minimal discomfort and recovery time.

What to Expect:
During the procedure, you will be positioned comfortably, and the area to be treated will be cleaned and sterilized. Using ultrasound guidance, we will precisely inject the steroid medication into the affected area. The entire process typically takes just a few minutes, and you can expect to feel relief within a few days, with effects lasting several weeks to months.

Conditions Treated:
Hyaluronic acid injections, also known as viscosupplementation, are particularly beneficial for:

• Knee and Hip Osteoarthritis

•  Joint Stiffness and Pain

• Reduced Joint Mobility

​

Benefits:

• Enhanced Lubrication: Restores the natural lubrication in your joints, reducing friction and pain.

• Improved Joint Function: Helps cushion the joints, improving movement and reducing stiffness.

• Long-Lasting Relief: Benefits can last for several months, delaying the need for more invasive treatments.​

​

​

What to Expect:
The procedure involves injecting a gel-like substance into the joint space under ultrasound guidance. The area will be cleaned and numbed, and the injection will be administered precisely to ensure maximum effectiveness. Noticeable improvement typically occurs within a month.

Conditions Treated:
PRP injections are highly effective for promoting healing in conditions such as:

• Chronic Tendon Injuries (e.g., tennis elbow, Achilles tendinitis)

• Ligament Sprains

• Mild to Moderate Osteoarthritis

• Muscle Injuries

​

Benefits:

• Natural Healing: Uses your own blood platelets to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.

• Long-Term Relief: Encourages natural healing processes, leading to sustained pain relief and improved function.

• Non-Surgical Option: A natural, drug-free alternative to surgery or more aggressive treatments.

 

What to Expect:

The procedure begins with drawing a small amount of your blood, which is then processed to concentrate the platelets. Under ultrasound guidance, the PRP is injected into the affected area. The process is relatively quick, and most patients can resume normal activities within a few days, though full healing may take several weeks.

Conditions Treated:
High-volume injections are particularly effective for:

• Chronic Tendon Pain (e.g., Achilles tendinitis)

• Plantar Fasciitis

• Calcific Tendinitis (Barbotage is used to break down calcium deposits)

• Frozen Shoulder

 

Benefits:

• Pain Relief and Improved Function: Reduces chronic pain and improves tendon and joint function.

• Breaks Down Calcifications: Barbotage specifically targets calcium deposits, breaking them down for natural absorption.

• Minimally Invasive: Provides an alternative to surgery with minimal recovery time.

 

What to Expect:
During a high-volume injection, a larger volume of saline solution, often mixed with corticosteroids, is injected into the tendon or joint space under ultrasound guidance. For barbotage, the procedure involves needling the calcium deposits to break them down. Patients may experience initial discomfort but should notice improvements in pain and function within a few weeks.

Conditions Treated:
Nerve hydrodissection is an effective treatment for:

• Nerve Entrapment Syndromes (e.g., carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar nerve entrapment)

• Chronic Nerve Pain

• Peripheral Neuropathy

 

Benefits:

• Relief from Nerve Pain: Separates the nerve from surrounding tissues, reducing compression and irritation.

•  Improved Nerve Function: Restores normal nerve function and reduces pain.

• Minimally Invasive: A precise, ultrasound-guided procedure with minimal discomfort and downtime.

 

What to Expect:
Nerve hydro dissection involves injecting a solution around the entrapped nerve under ultrasound guidance. The solution helps to free the nerve from surrounding tissues, reducing compression and pain. The procedure is quick, and most patients experience relief immediately after treatment, with full benefits developing over the following weeks.
