Bath Joint InjectionsJoint injections have traditionally used local anaesthetic and corticosteroid which provide a fantastic anti-inflammatory pain relieving effect. Matt also offers Ostenil Plus hyaluronic injections which carry the same benefits of pain relief and improved mobility but with no known side effects. If you have benefitted from the anti-inflammatory effect of steroid injections in the past we can also offer Cingal injections for knee pain which mixes a low dose of steroid with hyaluronic acid.
If you are unsure which injection you wish to have you can either just book an appointment and Matt can guide you to the best option or enter your contact details above for a free call back. |

Ostenil® is a treatment for the symptoms of osteoarthritis and other joint and tendon pain. It can be used in the knee, shoulder or in any of the other joints in the body that are classified as ‘synovial’.
How does it work? Ostenil Hyaluronic acid injections help to restore the natural lubrication in your joints, improving mobility and reducing pain for up to 12 months. It can also be used for Frozen shoulder and shoulder impingement, tennis elbow and other injuries to reduce pain and aid rehabilitation. What can I expect if I decide to have an injection with Ostenil®? Ostenil will be injected directly into the joint or area affected by pain. It may take a number of days to take effect but then symptoms can improve for up to 12 Months. Once the effects of the first injection wears off, you can, if you choose, have another. Do you use ultrasound scanning to guide injections? Yes. Injections can be carried out using bony landmarks and anatomic knowledge to locate the site to be injected or Ultrasound scanning can be used to visualise the area in real time. Matt has trained in Ultrasound guided injections as they have been shown to be more accurate than landmark guided injection thus ensuring optimal outcomes. |
Cingal® is an advanced combination of a hyaluronic acid (HA) and a fast-acting corticosteroid injection, developed to target knee joint pain caused by osteoarthritis and other degenerative conditions.
How does it work? Hyaluronic acid acts as a lubricant and shock absorber, improving joint mobility and comfort. Corticosteroids provide immediate anti-inflammatory relief, helping to reduce swelling and pain in the affected knee joint. Who Can Benefit from Cingal? Cingal is ideal for individuals experiencing:

So glad I found Matt to help with my knees. I have arthritis in both knees after having a number of arthroscopies and was written off as needing knee replacements. Matt listened to all my concerns, was honest and gave me some great advice on rehab to carry out after the injections which gave me fantastic relief from my pain for 9 months.
