Advanced Treatments
Our range of treatments are tailored to the needs of active people of all ages, including:
- Ultrasound-guided joint and tendon injections: As opposed to “blind” injections, ultrasound-guided injections allow our physician to place the needle with complete accuracy. This increased precision means he can avoid potential problem areas, and helps to increase effectiveness of the injection.
- Platelet-rich plasma injections: Activated platelets help in the healing process of many sport-related injuries, including sprains, strains and overuse injuries. While naturally occurring, platelets will help injuries heal over time; the injection of platelet-rich plasma accelerates healing time.
