Injection of cement into collapsing vertebral bodies can help stabilise the spine and reduce pain.
Injection of pain relieving solution onto the nerves that supply the abdominal organs can help relieve abdominal pain.
Ultrasound can be used to help target soft tissue structures and deliver pain relieving solution to muscle and nerves.
Injection of viscoelastic supplements can be performed to reduce pain and improve function into knee joints.
Treatment of the nerves supplying the shoulders can be used to reduce shoulder and proximal arm pain.
Anaesthesia is used with most procedures to reduce discomfort and allow patients to remain still.
