Osteoarthritis
Joint Comfort & Mobility
For knees, hips and shoulders that limit your day.
A guided, in-office joint application for adults with mild to moderate wear who have tried conservative care and want to explore a regenerative option before, or instead of, surgery.
Benefits
What this treatment could help with.
Each case is different. The physician who reviews your records will tell you what is reasonable to expect in yours.
Less joint pain
Treatment could help reduce the everyday pain of worn joints, so walking, climbing stairs or getting up from a chair can feel easier.
More mobility
Regenerative therapy could help your joint move more freely, with a wider range of motion and less stiffness.
A healthier joint environment
It can help calm the inflammation inside the joint, which could support cartilage and the surrounding tissue.
Keep your own joint longer
For many people, this treatment could be a way to postpone a joint replacement.
Fewer painkillers
With less discomfort, you could rely less on pain medication and anti-inflammatories.
Same-day procedure
A 30–60 minute image-guided application. You can walk out the same day.
Several joints, one trip
Knees, hips, shoulders and other joints can be treated during the same visit, when indicated.
About the treatment
How it is done.
The treatment is a guided application of regenerative therapy directly into the joint. Using ultrasound or fluoroscopy, the specialist places it exactly where it is needed, in a procedure room.
Inside the joint, regenerative therapy can release signals that help modulate inflammation and support the repair processes of cartilage and surrounding tissue. Combined with light activity and follow-up, it could help you get back to the activities you enjoy.
