With over 25 years of experience, Bodyvie offers effective treatments for muscular pain, joint discomfort, and sports or occupational injuries. Our doctors tailor therapies to your needs, using options such as your body’s own growth factors, hyaluronic acid, steroids, and LED Light Therapy.
Established in 1999, Bodyvie offers a range of treatments to help relieve pain. For men, options include therapeutic LED light therapy to reduce inflammation and promote healing, as well as hyaluronic acid, steroid, or natural pain-relief injections to target joint pain from injuries or conditions such as arthritis. Our single-location clinic in Richmond provides the latest in patient care.
LED Light Therapy offers many healing properties to alleviate pain from injuries. LED light therapy can stimulate wound healing to alleviate chronic pain. The light properties have anti-inflammatory benefits, ideal for treating muscle, sports and occupational injuries. This treatment is a relaxing and passive way to target conditions holistically.
Joint pain can interfere with daily comfort and activities. Joint pain can be caused from a past injury or the development of arthritis. At Bodyvie, your doctor will closely assess the cause of your joint pain and your symptoms to determine the best treatment option for you.
Joint pain can be caused by injury or developing rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis. At Bodyvie, our doctors are able to inject a steroid solution, your body’s own growth factors or a hyaluronic acid gel to the joint to alleviate the pain.
The treating injectable is determined by a thorough consultation assessing the physical joint and your symptoms for the most suitable treatment. Steroid injections are an ideal treatment for those who are experiencing symptoms of pain and inflammation in their joints in their hips, knees or shoulders, particularly from osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Steroid injections offer pain and inflammation relief for 2-3 months.
For joints not responding to steroid injections or who have diabetes, hyaluronic acid injections may be a more suitable treatment. Hyaluronic acid injections may also be considered if you don’t have obvious signs of inflammation. Hyaluronic acid gel injections are chemically similar to natural joint fluid. Osteoarthritis causes joint fluid to become more like water and hyaluronic acid gel injections help to restore the viscosity of this fluid to mimic its properties of being a joint lubricant and ability to act as a shock absorbent.
Lastly, Bodyvie offers natural injections using your own growth factors. These injections use your own blood and platelets, drawn by your doctor, to promote healing. Platelets contain rich growth factors and proteins that help the healing in soft tissues. These natural injections can influence the immune response of pain and osteoarthritis to help reduce symptoms of inflammation.
At our Richmond location, recognised as a premium destination for sophisticated, medically-backed aesthetic care, your doctor will carefully determine the most suitable treatment for you. For optimal results, you may be advised a combination of injection therapy and LED light therapy. Multiple treatments are often recommended to ensure effective pain relief. Every patient receives personalised, high-quality consultations tailored to their needs.
