Whether you're managing persistent joint discomfort, muscle tension, chronic pain, or a sports-related injury, our approach focuses on identifying potential sources of discomfort and developing individualized treatment strategies that align with your needs and goals.

Perineural

An innovative, minimally invasive treatment that targets the root cause of chronic nerve pain and musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions. Using small, superficial injections of a low-concentration dextrose solution or an anesthetic around irritated cutaneous nerves, this therapy works by reducing neurogenic inflammation and restoring healthy nerve function. Conditions commonly treated include chronic back and neck pain, sciatica, fibromyalgia, headaches, carpal tunnel syndrome, joint and tendon pain, bursitis, plantar fasciitis, Morton's neuroma, post-herpetic neuralgia, and arthritis

Prolotherapy

Proven regenerative injection therapy designed to stimulate your body's own healing response in damaged or unstable tendons, ligaments, and joints. Commonly used for: chronic low back and neck pain, sports injuries, ligament and tendon tears or laxity, osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, and other joints, SI joint dysfunction, and joint hypermobility. It pairs especially well with physical rehabilitation and nutritional support.

Trigger Point Therapy

Targeted, effective relief for myofascial pain, that deep, aching, radiating muscle pain that can be difficult to resolve with manual therapy alone. A small amount of local anesthetic (typically 1% lidocaine) is injected directly into the trigger point, causing an immediate release of the muscular contraction and interrupting the pain-spasm cycle.

Corticosteroid

Deliver a powerful anti-inflammatory medication directly to the site of pain, providing targeted, fast-acting relief for a wide range of joint, bursa, and tendon conditions. Common conditions treated with corticosteroid injections include shoulder bursitis, knee and hip joint inflammation, plantar fasciitis, and arthritis flare-ups.

Hyaluronic Acids

Restore the natural lubrication and shock-absorbing properties of synovial fluid in arthritic or degenerating joints. By injecting pharmaceutical-grade hyaluronic acid directly into the joint space, this treatment helps reduce friction, cushion the joint, decrease pain, and improve range of motion. Hyaluronic acid injections are most commonly used for osteoarthritis of the knee but are also effective for the hip, shoulder, ankle, and elbow. SportVis (a leading HA preparation) is Health Canada-approved for knee osteoarthritis and lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow).

Therapeutic Botox

Therapeutic Botox is a targeted medical treatment used to relieve muscle-related pain and dysfunction. Commonly used for conditions like chronic tension, migraines, TMJ, and muscle tightness, Botox works by relaxing overactive muscles to reduce pain, improve movement, and support long-term recovery.
