If you've just been diagnosed with Osteoarthritis it can feel like a sledgehammer blow. I'm sure you already aware that Osteoarthritis (OA) can be a complex, painful, and debilitating condition. Yes, it will require careful management to minimise disease progression however, there is a lot we can do to assist this new era of self-care.

​

Medication is key, especially for helping nerves heal, but there is a balance. Relying on pharmaceuticals long term masks pain rather than helping to slow progression, and may have side effects. There is often a sequence of reciprocal cause and effect where pain reduces the range of motion, meaning muscles begin to weaken and even more pressure is loaded onto the joint, causing more pain. 

​

Thankfully, management of the disease is improving all the time and there are many things to try.

K-laser works uniquely to anything else, by helping to:

​

• reduce overall inflammation,

• improve blood supply to poorly vascularised areas such as tendons and ligaments, 

• rebuild muscle, and

• 'reset' over-sensitised nerves and reduce neuropathic pain. 

 

It takes approximately 6-18 treatments to reduce the pain and get your mobility to a point where you can properly utilise other therapies such as physio & controlled exercise, to help restore fitness. Once musculature is rebuilt, top-ups once a month may be needed but we can play it by how your body responds.
