Many of us got our first cars in our late teens or early 20s, and if we were lucky, we got some great years out of them before they started to show signs of wear and tear. Eventually, the wear impacted the vehicle’s function and, ultimately, our sense of safety or livelihood as it got more challenging to manage. Like cars, our joints show signs of “wear and tear” after decades of use, but fortunately, we’ve got a built-in system for self-healing and recovery. With the proper support, it’s often possible to rebuild joint strength and mobility with a comprehensive care system like ViscoGen’s KneeVisc 5 ®, so surgery doesn’t have to be a consideration. How can ViscoGen™ treat Osteoarthritis of the knee without the risks of surgery?
Get to Know OA
How do you know your nagging knee pain is Osteoarthritis? While OA of the knee is typical in older adults, anyone can experience the inflammation, instability, and grinding pain associated with the condition. If you’ve been carrying excess weight, have had a physically stressful career or sports hobby, or a previous injury, you’re more likely to experience wearing of the smooth cartilage that lines the bones in the knee joints or a reduction in the cushioning, lubricating fluid inside them. ViscoGen™ offers the industry’s most comprehensive care plan to manage every aspect of knee pain so you can get back to doing the things you love.
Total Care for Total Mobility
When it’s time for a tune-up, ViscoGen™ focuses on improving every aspect of knee pain with a treatment plan designed to maximize relief results:
Much of the pain associated with OA is due to the inflammation within and around the joint, and that heat and swelling can also limit circulation and healing. Class IV Laser Therapy can manage acute and chronic pain by stimulating tissue repair, drawing oxygen and nutrients to the area, and reducing swelling, stiffness, and spasms.
At the core of our plan is a set of all-natural injections designed to hydrate and lubricate the tissues in the joints, which reduces pain, improves mobility, and enhances the healing of the tissues and ligaments.
Joint rehabilitation is a necessary element of our pain-relief protocol following injection therapy because knee strengthening provides stability, long-term relief, and a healthy lifestyle. In addition, bracing of the joint may be necessary to improve knee alignment, allowing patients to get the most out of modalities like Physical Therapy. Another excellent option for helping our patients move out of pain is the Anti-gravity treadmill, which can reduce pressure and impact recovering knee joints by as much as 80%.

I am in constant pain, I asked to have the gel shots but my insurance will only give them thru a pain management doctor. I was sent to one just yesterday and after waiting for a month to get in to see this doctor, he said that he doesn’t do them. I was so upset because I went there expecting to get good news. I use nsaids and lots of menthol patches, also use ice and heat. I would like to have pain relief and be able to go back to doing things with my husband and grandkids I would like to loose weight and to be able to be active again.
