Revolutionizing Knee Osteoarthritis Treatment: SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology at The Fix Chiropractic in Wilmington, NC
Knee osteoarthritis is a debilitating condition that affects millions, leading to pain, stiffness, and a diminished quality of life. At The Fix Chiropractic in Wilmington, NC, Dr. David Russ offers a groundbreaking approach to treating knee osteoarthritis without invasive surgery or dependency on pain medications. Utilizing SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology (TRT), Dr. Russ provides a non-invasive, effective solution that addresses the root causes of osteoarthritis pain and fosters natural healing.
Understanding Knee Osteoarthritis
What is Knee Osteoarthritis? Knee osteoarthritis involves the wear and tear of the cartilage in the knee joint, which cushions the ends of the bones and allows for smooth movement. As this cartilage deteriorates, the bones can begin to rub against each other, causing pain, swelling, and restricted movement.
Symptoms and Causes of Knee Osteoarthritis
Symptoms:
- Pain that increases when active, and eases with rest
- Swelling and a warm sensation in the joint
- Stiffness, especially in the morning or after sitting for a long time
- Decreased mobility, making it difficult to perform everyday activities such as walking or climbing stairs
Causes:
- Aging: The risk of developing osteoarthritis increases with age.
- Weight: Excess weight puts additional pressure on joints, including the knees.
- Genetics: There may be a genetic predisposition to developing osteoarthritis.
- Previous Injuries: Injuries such as those from sports or accidents can increase the risk of osteoarthritis.
Traditional Treatments vs. SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology
Traditionally, knee osteoarthritis is managed through a combination of physical therapy, medications, corticosteroid injections, and possibly surgery. However, these treatments often provide only temporary relief and can have side effects or require significant recovery time.
The Advantages of SoftWave TRT
SoftWave TRT offers a state-of-the-art alternative by using shock waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes at a cellular level. This treatment has several key benefits:
- Pain Reduction: SoftWave therapy helps reduce knee pain effectively by modulating the inflammatory processes that contribute to discomfort and stiffness.
- Improved Mobility: By enhancing tissue repair and reducing pain, SoftWave TRT helps restore mobility and improve quality of life, making daily activities easier and more comfortable.
- Non-Invasive: SoftWave TRT is completely non-invasive, providing an alternative to surgery and allowing for immediate return to daily activities with no downtime.
- Natural Healing: The therapy stimulates the body’s own healing mechanisms, promoting long-term improvements.
