Living with chronic joint pain often means a frustrating cycle: painkillers that wear off, cortisone shots that lose effectiveness, or physical therapy that only goes so far. Surgery can feel inevitable. But at Joint Health Solutions, a leading Regenerative Medicine Clinic in Charlotte, we offer a proven, minimally invasive alternative.
Our approach focuses on helping your body heal itself using advanced, evidence-based treatments. We don’t offer gut tests or elimination diets. Instead, we specialize exclusively in what delivers real results for joints: Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, hyaluronic acid injections, fluoroscopy-guided injections, custom offloading knee braces, and targeted IV therapy.
Unlike conventional orthopedics that may rush toward surgery, we take time to understand your unique situation. We combine advanced injection therapies with mechanical support (braces) and practical lifestyle advice. Our goal is to reduce pain, restore function, and help you avoid or significantly delay joint replacement.
Many patients who come to us have been told they need knee or hip replacement. Yet after a course of PRP and bracing at our regenerative medicine clinic in Charlotte, they return to the activities they love—walking, hiking, swimming, and even tennis.
We provide a comprehensive suite of non-surgical joint pain treatments under one roof. Explore all our joint injection options here →
PRP uses growth factors from your own blood to stimulate healing in arthritic joints, tendons, and ligaments. A small blood sample is spun in a centrifuge to concentrate platelets, then injected directly into the damaged area under ultrasound guidance.
Research shows PRP can reduce pain and improve function for 6–12 months in knee osteoarthritis. Many patients with shoulder tendinopathy, elbow epicondylitis, and ankle arthritis also benefit. The procedure takes about 30 minutes, and you go home the same day.
These injections lubricate and cushion osteoarthritic knees, hips, and shoulders. Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of joint fluid that breaks down as arthritis progresses. By injecting a purified form back into the joint, we improve shock absorption and reduce friction.
Many patients experience relief for 6–12 months, and the procedure takes only a few minutes. It is often covered by insurance for knee osteoarthritis.
For cortisone or other injectable medications, we use fluoroscopy (live X-ray) to ensure precise delivery into the joint or around a nerve. This reduces the risk of misplaced injections and improves outcomes—especially useful for spine, hip, and sacroiliac joint injections where blind injections can miss the target.
For medial compartment knee osteoarthritis, a custom-fitted offloading brace shifts weight away from damaged cartilage, reducing pain and allowing you to walk longer distances. Many patients delay knee replacement for years with a combination of bracing and PRP.
We offer anti-inflammatory and NAD+ protocols to support joint recovery and reduce systemic inflammation. This is especially helpful for patients with widespread pain, fatigue, or those wanting to optimize healing after PRP. An IV infusion delivers nutrients directly into your bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system for maximum absorption. Sessions last 45–60 minutes.
