Joint Injections
Conditions We Treat
Medical Treatments
We do not utilize steroids at Downtown’s Healthcare. We take a natural approach by using simple and safe numbing, non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory injections. All of these injections are ultrasound guided for accuracy and precision!
Trigger Point Injections (TPI):
Used to decrease inflammation in the muscle fibers that have been contracted or strained for a period of time which causes “knots” to form. These injections allow the muscles to regain elasticity, increase range of motion, become stronger, and decrease pain.
Joint Injections:
Helps reduce inflammation in the joints to reduce pain and improve function
Sub-Occipital Nerve Blocks:
Decrease the frequency and severity of headaches and migraines and are administered at the base of the head and neck region.
Types of Regenerative Care offered at Downtown’s Healthcare
Tissue Transplant Injections:
The tissue come from Wharton’s Jelly from inside umbilical cord tissue, that is a rich source of growth factors, cytokines, mesenchymal stem cells, exosomes, and proteins.
The primary function of the tissue is to repair, reconstruct, replace, and supplement. The secondary function is to facilitate new growth in degenerated joints.
Amniotic Tissue Injections :
Amniotic tissue is highly concentrated in growth factors and hyaluronic acid, which lubricates joints and tendons, easing the pain, and helping to restore mobility, proteins, cytokines, and other important compounds. These injections help to activate the body’s own stem cells.
Platelet Rich Plasma Injections:
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses injections of a concentration of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles and joints.
Ozone Injections:
Ozone therapies help remove harmful free radicals from the body, and prevent tissue damage, as well as improve local circulation. These injections have a cumulative effect; ozone activates the immune system, and heals damaged cells, protecting them from future oxidative stress.
