Are you tired of living with knee pain, or are you trying to AVOID knee replacement SURGERY?

Surgery isn't always the answer. There are non-surgical options available!

Millions of people suffer from knee pain in this country, and many of them have been told they need an immediate knee replacement. While it is true that some people may indeed need surgery, most patients have not tried all of the non-surgical knee pain relief treatments that are available. In fact, a lot of patients are afraid of surgery, and are looking for alternative treatments, but aren't sure where to go.

Knee pain has a lot of causes, but more often than not it is due to arthritis, or inflammation of the joint. When this occurs there is a lot of friction in the knee joint leading to pain and swelling. Non-surgical knee pain relief treatments are designed to reduce pain and swelling.

Injections :

These injections are a great treatment for knee pain. They are made up of a natural substance called hyaluronic acid which has almost no side effects. They act as a lubricant in the knees and reduce both friction and pain. These injections can be seen advertised in the newspaper, and on TV. When used, they can sometimes delay or prevent a knee replacement. These injections are done in a series of 3 shots, and they don't have time down. This is also a same day procedure which is done in the office rather than in the hospital.
