Treatments for arthritis at Arch Medical Group
Our medical team focuses on treating arthritis by first identifying any physical condition that triggered the condition. The contributing factors that could lead to arthritis include repetitive motions such as kneeling, obesity, joint injuries, and some viral or bacterial infections. A doctor may prescribe various types of medications, including anti-inflammatories, painkillers, corticosteroids, anti-rheumatic drugs, and biologics. At Arch Medical Group, we take a fresh approach to treating arthritis, by first identifying the underlying causes that can be addressed. Our treatments could include:
- PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field therapy): A non-invasive and safe treatment to treat the pain and inflammation associated with arthritis. This treatment has proven to be extremely successful for many patients.
- Red light therapy: Red light energy has the ability to reduce joint pain without invasive surgery or medications. It is often the treatment performed on injured sports pros – but we believe every patient should have access to this solution for chronic joint pain. Recent clinical studies reveal this treatment has a high success rate.
- Whole-body vibration: This non-invasive treatment can reduce pain and disability through stimulating blood flow to the region, and in some cases has been shown to significantly improve arthritis in hands, fingers, and other painful body areas.
- IV therapy: The body may lack specific types of necessary nutrients, which when delivered intravenously, help to reduce the pain of arthritis.
- Trigenics: This treatment penetrates deeper into tissue than can be achieved with massage or trigger point therapy. Deeper penetration could significantly reduce the pain associated with arthritis.
- PRP: Knee arthritis can be treated with PRP, which can be particularly effective in the early stages of the disease.
