Knee Pain

What’s the best way to treat knee arthritis?

Consider a non-surgical treatment that really works!

Osteoarthritis of the knee is a leading cause of disability in the U.S. Over 27 million people suffer from knee arthritis and that number continues to grow. With knee arthritis, the cartilage breaks down and wears away, leaving the bones to rub together causing pain swelling stiffness, and limited range of motion.
As the cartilage breaks down, the knee loses its lubricating fluid. We found that by replacing this lubricating fluid with a natural substance called Hyaluronate, the lubrication’s restored and many patients experience amazing pain relief.

What Is Hyaluronate And How Does It Work?

Hyaluronate is a natural lubricating fluid that acts as a lubricant and shock absorber inside the knee joint. The substance in Hyaluronate is normally found in high levels in healthy joints. Replacing the hyularonic acid with Hyaluronate lubricates the joint and reduces pain. Hyaiuronate has been administered over 40 million times and has been proven to provide long-lasting relief of knee pain from osteoarthritis.

What If You Already Tried Knee Injections?

If you have had injections like this in the past and experienced poor results, there is still hope! Many doctors in this area offer similar injections, out very few use precision fluoroscopy guidance. Fluoroscopy guidance ensures that the pain relieving Hya urinate reaches the knee capsule whereit bonds with the joint fluid to create a lubricating and cushioning layer. Without fluoroscopy, it’s estimated that doctors “miss” the capsule over 30% of the time resulting in poor results. We want each and every one of our patients to have the greatest chance of success, so every injection is done with precision fluoroscopy guidance to ensure that the Hyaluronate gets into the capsule 100% of the time. Because of this, patients who previously felt little to no relief with non-flouroscopy guided injection are now getting excellent results.

The other “big difference” in our results is the multitude of other supportive care options that we have available to enhance the effectiveness of the Hyaluronate procedure. These options include state of the art medical laser treatment, physical therapy, manipulation, corrective osteoarthritis bracing (takes pressure off the damaged section of the knee), and natural anti-inflammatory products. The combination of these treatments offers you what we feel is the most comprehensive non-surgical knee treatment program available
