Hyaluronic Acid acts in a similar way to the body’s naturally produced synovial (joint) fluid, helping to lubricate joints in painful arthritis.
Steroid injection acts as a targeted anti-inflammatory medicine. It is used in painful arthritis and inflammatory conditions.
A high volume injection is used to expand a tight ball-and-socket shoulder joint, particularly useful in frozen shoulders.
Involves the injection of water and local anaesthetic around a tendon and is often used to treat Achilles and Patellar tendinopathy.
Involves the use of concentrated glucose to act as a local irritant solution. This is used to treat ligament laxity.
Arthrosamid is an innovative and novel type of injection treatment used to treat knee arthritis. Arthrosamid acts within the knee to help cushion the joint, reduce pain and decrease stiffness to improve knee function.
It integrates with the knee joint lining (synovium) to improve lubrication and protect the joint.
Arthrosamid is a non-biodegradable hydrogel injection consisting of 97.5% water with a 2.5% cross-linked polyacrylamide backbone and has been used for a variety of medical indications over the last 20 years.
Prepare the knee by cleaning it thoroughly before administering the Arthrosamid injection.
Use ultrasound guidance for precise Arthrosamid injection placement.
Administer Arthrosamid using a needle to perform the treatment.
After removing the needle, apply a plaster to cover the injection site for protection.
A corticosteroid injection, also known as a cortisone shot, is a type of anti-inflammatory medication that can be directly administered into the affected tissues and joints to alleviate pain symptoms. Compared to long-term use of steroid tablets, cortisone injections pose a lower risk of adverse side effects. They are also a safer alternative to prolonged intake of high doses of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Additionally, cortisone injections target the specific area of discomfort and are distinct from the steroids used by bodybuilders or athletes.
Waiting times are less than one week on average.
All injections are performed by a doctor with at least ten years’ experience in providing musculoskeletal injections.
All injections are performed with ultrasound-guidance, which improves accuracy and allows the doctor to visualise the injection in real-time.
Including all major joint, soft-tissue, nerve, tendon injections.
