Want to know the secret to our patients’ success?

The benefit is not instant but gradual. It becomes noticeable after 6-8 weeks, increasing up to 12 weeks. Patients with improvements immediately after therapy are also observed. Pain and stiffness are expected for about 2 to 3 days. Rest is not necessary, normal activities should  continue. Complications are very rare as the injection is not placed in the spinal canal or near the spinal nerves. Infection occurs in approximately 1 in 17,000 injections, which is the main complication that can occur.
