Regenerative procedures when clinically indicated
The department may offer ultrasound-guided regenerative procedures when clinically appropriate and approved, including dextrose prolotherapy, autologous whole blood, autologous plasma, platelet-rich plasma, hyaluronic acid, and other approved regenerative options. Availability depends on clinical indication, physician assessment, and local regulatory approval.
Coordinated care with the rehabilitation team
Recovery often requires more than one type of treatment. The PM&R Department works closely with physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, psychologists, nurses, orthotics specialists, and other healthcare professionals to create a coordinated rehabilitation plan.
This approach helps patients receive the right care at the right stage of recovery — whether the goal is pain relief, improved mobility, return to sport, better independence, or long-term functional improvement
