Knee Pain

HOW IT WORKS

The Osteoarthritis Knee Pain Relief Program at Integrative Medical and Wellness Clinic is a medical procedure during which a natural lubricating fluid is injected into the knee joint, called hyaluronic acid (HA) or hyaluronan.

 

Hyaluronic acid is a key component of the joint fluid in healthy joints, but is found in lower concentrations in osteoarthritic joints. By adding hyaluronic acid to the existing joint fluid of an osteoarthritic knee, the goal is to:

Facilitate better knee movement

Reduce pain

Stimulate the body to begin normal production of HA

WHO IS A CANDIDATE

Typical candidates for this non-surgical knee relief are people with knee osteoarthritis who have failed to improve with conservative treatments and wish to avoid total knee replacement surgery.
