An estimated 54.4 million US adults have been diagnosed with some form of arthritis, according to the Center for Disease Control. National costs are estimated at more than $304 billion annually. And by 2040, the number of US adults (18 years or older) diagnosed with arthritis is projected to rise to over 78 million.
WHEN YOU RUN OUT OF OPTIONS
Many patients try everything from pain medicine and physical therapy to over the counter supplements with little results. If treatments aren't working, surgical and joint replacement options typically follow.
IF YOU SUFFER WITH ARTHRITIS PAIN, YOU HAVE MORE OPTIONS.
Dr K's osteoarthritis patients commonly describe "bone on bone" pain. Most are in happy disbelief when they have little to no pain and can move easier. In fact, patients feel so much better that they often "over do it" because they want to keep going.
"Patients feel so much better after a treatment. I know I've done my job when they say, "I feel like myself again."
Dr K. ST JOHN
Clinically effective treatment options, like acupuncture, will increase circulation to the affected joint(s), decrease inflammation and improve overall physiological function. The treatments slow disease progression, reduce symptoms and improve quality of life. Arthritis is a chronic and degenerative disease, and follow up care is necessary to prevent and manage symptoms.
MEDICINE THAT WORKS.
Acupuncture is supported by scientific literature to effectively treat arthritis, along with other evidence-based medical modalities.
