Knee Osteoarthritis

For persistent knee joint pain that has not responded to conservative measures:

• Radiofrequency ablation of the genicular nerves supplying the knee joint, providing sustained pain relief without affecting joint structure or motor function, and well-supported by clinical evidence for moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis
• Regenerative therapies including platelet-rich plasma to reduce intra-articular inflammation, support cartilage health, and improve joint function, particularly in earlier stages of disease
• Viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acid to restore joint lubrication and reduce friction within the knee, an established treatment with FDA approval for knee osteoarthritis

To address the mechanical contributors to knee pain and protect remaining joint function:

• Targeted quadriceps and hip strengthening to reduce load on the joint and improve stability
• Gait retraining and biomechanical correction to reduce uneven loading across the knee
• Activity modification and load management guidance to reduce pain provocation without complete rest

Across all stages of knee osteoarthritis, the goal at Painacea is to:

• Reduce pain and improve function without unnecessary reliance on oral medication
• Delay or avoid the need for osteoarthritis surgery where clinically appropriate
• Preserve mobility and quality of daily life for as long as possible
