Conservative Treatments for Joints & Spine

At Peak Orthopedics, we explore all conservative treatment options before surgery is considered.

Conservative treatment options

• Medications – Prescription and over the counter (OTC) medications may help relieve pain and swelling.
  
  
• Physical therapy – Specific exercises recommended by a physical therapist may help keep joints flexible, reduce stiffness, and build muscle strength.
  
  
• Joint fluid Injections or supplements – injections that lubricate the damaged joint may provide temporary pain relief, but not a cure.
