Medical Treatments
Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger points are knots formed when muscles do not relax. These points most commonly occur in the upper back and shoulder areas. A trigger point injection (TPI) will effectively deactivate the trigger point and alleviate pain. Small needles go into the area of muscles surrounding the spine that are tight and bound up.
Knee Injections
South Hills Physical Medicine and Chiropractic offers an FDA-approved joint supplement with virtually no side effects for those affected by arthritis in the knee. Our joint injections work as a natural lubricant that simultaneously works as an anti-inflammatory. This therapy offers patients effective relief from the pain, swelling and inflammation caused by osteoarthritis.
Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression therapy gently and slowly helps spinal discs heal and maintain their health. Many different health concerns can be addressed through spinal decompression therapy, including degenerative disc disease, disc herniation, spinal stenosis, headaches and carpal tunnel.
