Types of Joint Pain We Treat

Our specialists treat a wide range of joint pain conditions. Here are the ones we see most often.

Osteoarthritis

Wear and tear of the cartilage in your joints. It is the most common form of arthritis and often affects knees, hips, and hands. We help manage the pain and improve how well you can move.

Knee Pain

Swelling, stiffness, and difficulty with stairs or walking. Knee pain can come from arthritis, injury, or overuse. We work out the cause and put together a plan that fits you.

Shoulder Pain

Limited movement, pain at night, or weakness in the arm. Shoulder problems can make everyday tasks difficult. We assess the joint and offer targeted treatment to ease the pain and improve function.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

An autoimmune condition that causes inflammation in the joints. It often brings morning stiffness that lasts a while and can affect joints on both sides of the body. We help manage the pain and protect your joints.

Joint pain from activity, overuse, or injury. Whether you are a weekend warrior or train regularly, we help get you back to what you love doing.

Chronic Joint Pain

How We Help

Treatment Options

The right treatment depends on your joints and your goals. Here are the main approaches we use.

Joint Injections

Corticosteroid or hyaluronic acid injections into the joint to reduce inflammation and ease pain. Often used when tablets and physio alone are not enough.

Medication Review

Making sure your current medication is working well for you. We can adjust doses or add options that target joint pain and inflammation more effectively.

Rehabilitation Support

Exercises and physio to strengthen the muscles around the joint and improve how you move. Often a key part of long-term joint pain management.
