Low Dose Radiation Therapy for Osteoarthritis

Radiation can be utilized to significantly reduce symptoms caused by osteoarthritis when first line treatments have not provided sufficient relief.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease that breaks down cartilage between joints and can change bone shape. This breakdown can cause inflammation, pain, impact mobility, and quality of life. Low dose radiation treatment has been shown to significantly improve these symptoms.

Pain Improvement

Low dose radiation has shown significant improvement in pain after treatment completion.

Non Invasive

No painful injections, medications, or surgery required.

Minimal Side Effects

Little to no side effects due to limited amount of radiation used. Slight skin reaction may occur.

No Referral Needed

Call the office to schedule a consult. No referral needed with appropriate diagnosis.

Course Treatment

Seven treatments given daily, Monday through Friday. Each treatment lasts approximately 15 minutes.

Insurance Coverage

Treatment covered by most insurance plans, including Medicare. Financial Counselors can provide more information.
