Low-Dose Radiation Therapy for Arthritis
Radiation therapy for arthritis is a well-established treatment in Europe and is gaining recognition in the United States for its ability to reduce joint inflammation and pain. This technique involves applying very low doses of radiation to affected joints—often resulting in significant, lasting pain relief for patients who have exhausted other options.
Ideal for patients who:
- Experience chronic arthritis pain that limits daily activities
- Have not responded to medications, physical therapy, or injections
- Are not candidates for joint surgery or prefer a non-invasive solution
