At Hallamshire Physiotherapy, we offer specialist injection treatments to help manage pain, reduce inflammation, and improve joint function. Injections can be a highly effective part of a wider treatment plan — especially when other physiotherapy approaches alone haven’t provided enough relief.
Our injection services are carried out by fully trained physiotherapists in a safe, professional environment, following a full assessment to ensure the treatment is right for you.
Injection therapy can:
• Reduce pain and swelling in joints or soft tissues
• Improve movement and flexibility
• Support rehabilitation by allowing you to exercise more comfortably
• Target treatment directly to the problem area for maximum benefit
We typically use injections when pain is limiting progress in physiotherapy or when conservative treatments have been less effective than hoped.
We currently provide two main types of injection therapy:
Anti-inflammatory medication used to reduce pain and swelling in conditions such as arthritis, bursitis, tendinopathies, and frozen shoulder.
Hyaluronic acid-based treatments for osteoarthritis (Ostenil® Plus) and tendon pain (Ostenil® Tendon), designed to improve lubrication, reduce stiffness, and relieve pain.
1. Assessment – We’ll discuss your symptoms, medical history, and goals to determine the most suitable treatment.
2. Informed Consent – You’ll be fully informed about the benefits, risks, and alternatives before deciding to proceed.
3. Injection – The procedure is quick, usually taking under 15 minutes, and is carried out under sterile conditions.
4. Aftercare – You’ll receive personalised guidance to help you get the best results, often alongside a tailored rehabilitation plan.
