How is arthritis treated?
At Restoration Osteopathic Medicine, you can receive a treatment known as viscosupplementation. This treatment injects lubrication into the affected joints so you can move more comfortably. Your provider might also provide medication to reduce pain and inflammation.
But medications can’t always correct joint damage. Your provider may suggest an osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) instead. This treatment repairs structural abnormalities to improve joint function. OMT offers a drug-free way to protect your joints and rebuild your strength.
