INJECTION THERAPY
Used Selectively When Rehabilitation Alone Is Not Enough
OverView
Injection therapy is considered in specific cases where symptoms remain persistent despite structured loading and mechanical management. It is not typically a first-line treatment.
What Injection Therapy Involves
When Injections May Be Appropriate
- Morton’s neuroma
- Persistent 1st MTPJ osteoarthritis
- Confirmed inflammatory joint pathology
Steroid injections are not routinely used for plantar fasciitis at this clinic due to potential risks and limited long-term benefit.
Types of Injection Offered
Depending on the condition, options may include:
- Corticosteroid injection
- Hyaluronic acid (Ostenil) for selected joint conditions
All injections are delivered as part of a broader management strategy and are not standalone solutions.
Important Considerations
Injection therapy aims to reduce pain sufficiently to allow effective rehabilitation and mechanical correction.
A full assessment is required before determining suitability.
