Corticosteroid & Hyaluronic Acids

Corticosteroids are known to relieve pain and inflammation. Corticosteroids injections are particularly effective for the symptoms of Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain in the joint, shoulder, elbow, ankle, wrist and hip.

Additionally, commonly used for providing quick pain relief (lasting for months) for severe and degenerative diseases such as osteoarthritis (OA) and other soft tissue conditions, corticosteroids can tackle pain and inflammation to allow more range of movement (ROM) in the joints (and subsequently muscles) for restoration of pain-free function.

Both steroids and Hyaluronic acid injections are administered into joints, around specific nerves or soft tissues to diagnose the source of the pain as well as treating the pain.

More about Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

Growth factor therapy is a treatment option that are more suited for long-term pain relief. Working on the principle of triggering the body to produce healthy body cells in the symptomatic tissue cites, below injuries will be the recipients of the advantages brought forward by this effective & safe treatment:

Muscular injuries such as Quadriceps | Hamstring | calf muscles

Tendon Injuries such as: Tennis elbow | Golfer’s elbow | Patellar tendinosis | Achilles tendinosis |Plantar fasciitis | Hamstring tendons | Adductor tendons | Gluteal tendons, Anterior knee pain | Rotator cuff tendonitis

Arthritis & Tears: Knee tears (i.e. MCL) | Big toe arthritis | Knee osteoarthritis (OA) | Hip Osteoarthritis

Below are some of the conditions PRP injections help with:

Hip conditions

Hip conditions which can be treated with PRP therapy include:

• Hip Pain
• Hip Arthritis
• Hip Bursitis
• Hip Tendinopathy
• Hip Osteonecrosis
• Labral Tear
• Other degenerative conditions relating to the hip joint

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

Your body’s self-healing processes are supported through Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) also known as Growth Factor therapy. This is achieved by employing the protein-rich units of your own blood. Such units contain proteins & bio-active called growth factors which are important in the healing of injuries.

With a higher concentration of growth factors than typically found in blood, PRP injections support the restoration of injured tissue and inhibit painful inflammatory processes.

Our expert team works to provide the perfect patient pathway to get you quickly on the road to recovery. Whether you require conventional treatment or if you are a candidate for these effective treatment lines, you can be sure that will get great & confidential advice from our clinical specialists.

The PRP procedure is widely researched and supported in many clinical papers for various conditions including the knee osteoarthritis.

About the treatment Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP):

The PRP treatment supports your body’s self-healing processes by using your own cells. Blood is mostly liquid (called plasma) but also contains solid component including red cells, white cells and platelets. The platelets are important for clotting blood but they also contain proteins called growth factors which are important in the healing of injuries.

With a higher concentration of growth factors than typically found in blood, PRP injections support the restoration of injured tissue and inhibit painful inflammatory processes.

Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy can delay or avoid the need for knee surgery. The treatments are minimally invasive, can decrease inflammation, stop the progression of arthritic damage and repair joint cartilage. The recovery time is also much shorter than with surgery.
