At The Physio Box, we now offer injection therapy as an adjunct to physiotherapy, aimed at improving both pain relief and functional outcomes for our clients. While injections are not a standalone cure, treatments such as corticosteroid injections can be highly effective for managing symptoms. When combined with a comprehensive rehabilitation plan, they can significantly enhance recovery, enabling patients to return to work, exercise, and other functional activities previously limited by pain.

Key Benefits of Injection Therapy

Anti-Inflammatory Effects

Corticosteroids reduce inflammation in the targeted area, alleviating pain and swelling. This can greatly improve quality of life for those with persistent musculoskeletal conditions.

Improved Functional Capacity

By minimising pain and inflammation, injection therapy helps restore mobility and function, enabling patients to resume daily activities more quickly.

Quick Pain Relief

In many cases, injections provide rapid relief, often within a few days, making them an excellent option for acute flare-ups or long-standing chronic pain.

Localised Treatment

Injections target specific joints, tendons, or tissues, minimising the systemic side effects associated with oral medications.

Conditions Injection Therapy Can Address

Injection therapy is particularly effective for managing:

Arthritis

Tendinitis

Bursitis

Neuropathy

Repetitive strain injuries

Chronic pain conditions

Considerations for Injection Therapy

While injection therapy offers many advantages, it’s essential to be aware of its limitations:

Frequency Restrictions: Due to potential risks such as joint changes, systemic side effects, or infections, injections are typically limited to a few times per year.

Complementary Role: Injections are most effective when used alongside rehabilitation and physiotherapy rather than as a standalone solution.

Why Choose Corticosteroid Injections with a Physiotherapist?

Corticosteroid injections are well-known for their effectiveness in treating musculoskeletal conditions such as arthritis, tendonitis, and bursitis. Traditionally administered by GPs or specialists, these treatments are now increasingly available through private physiotherapy clinics, including The Physio Box.
