What is it?
A trigger point, or painful “knot” forms in the body when a muscle cannot relax. Trigger point injections are used to deliver medication directly into the knot, or trigger point, within a patient’s body.
Benefits?

What is it?
Regenerative medicine is the process of replacing or “regenerating” human cells, tissues or organs to restore or establish normal function.

Benefits?
Regenerative medicine may be used to cure previously untreatable injuries or diseases.
What is it?
Acupuncture improves the body’s functions and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific anatomic sites–commonly referred to as acupuncture points, or acupoints. Acupuncture, in its most common form, stimulates acupoints through the insertion of fine, sterile needles into the skin.
Benefits?
Accupuncutre has been known to successfully treat conditions ranging from muscoloskeletal problems (back pain, neck pain, and others) to nausea, migraine headaches, anxiety, depression, insomnia and even infertility.
What is it?
The sacroiliac joint is a the largest joint between the base of the spine and the pelvis, and appears in the body on both the right & the left hand side. When one of these joints becomes painful, a person can experience pain in the immediate region or referred pain may be felt in the groin, abdomen, hip, buttock and leg.
Benefits?
A sacroiliac joint injection is designed to reduce inflammation, and therefore alleviate pain. If the sacroliac joint injection provides relief, it may be used to determine the source of a patient’s pain.
What is it?
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentration created using a patient’s own blood. The platelets, once separated, are injected back into the patient to promote healing.
Benefits?
PRP injections use the body’s own healing factors on the injured area. These injections are commonly used for osteoarthritis and sports injuries.
What is it?

Relief is provided by delivering local anesthetic, and anti-inflammatory steroid medications into specific joints.
Benefits?
Intraricular joint injections may reduce inflammation that results in long-term pain relief.
What is it?
Bursa injections are administered into specific synovial fluid filled fibrous sacs (bursa), that are adjacent to joints in the body. The injections can help diagnose the source of pain, and also may provide relief.
