Ultrasound Guided Injection Clinic

Private Injection Clinics provide cutting edge treatments for those suffering with pain, inflammation and a loss of function. Specialised clinicians perform ultrasound guided injections at our clinics in Colchester and Leigh-on-Sea.

Many people who are suffering with conditions such as osteoarthritis, back pain, knee arthritis and frozen shoulder feel their best days are behind them. We offer safe and effective pain relief that allows you to move freely again, without surgery, and get back to doing what you love.

What Is an Ultrasound Guided Injection?

An Ultrasound Guided Injection is a specialised treatment used on a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. Ultrasound machines allow us to view the structure of muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints in real time to deliver injections safely and accurately into the target area.

Ultrasound technology lets our fully qualified clinicians perform minimally invasive procedures and injections with more accuracy and effectiveness.

Treatments using Ultrasound Guided Injections

We offer the following ultrasound-guided injections: 

Corticosteroid Injections. Cortisone injections, also known as steroid injections, are the most common treatments performed at our Ultrasound-Guided Injection Clinics. They can help relieve pain and reduce inflammation in specific areas of the body. 

Cortisone injections are typically injected into joints such as the ankle, elbow, hip, knee, shoulder or spine – providing pain relief and restoring joint function.

Arthrosamid Injections. Arthrosamid is an injection therapy designed to alleviate the symptoms associated with osteoarthritis, a condition characterised by the progressive deterioration of joint ®. This unique substance offers relief for patients suffering from anything from mild to severe stage (including bone on bone) knee arthritis, where symptoms like pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility are prominent.

Prolozone Injections.  Prolozone is an injection therapy used to support tissue repair, reduce pain, and improve function in joints and soft tissues. Ultrasound guidance is used for Prolozone injections in the arms and legs, allowing accurate placement into targeted structures. For spinal Prolozone injections, ultrasound guidance is not used, as the technique focuses on specific ligament and connective tissue attachments that are best accessed using established anatomical landmark-based methods.

Hyaluronic Acid Injections. Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in joint synovial fluid, serving to lubricate, cushion, and absorb shocks within the joint.  We currently offer three types of hyaluronic acid injections: Ostenil Plus, Durolane, and Biolevox HA ONE/SmHArtfix One (the same formulation supplied under different branding).

Each hyaluronic acid product has different molecular properties, strength, and duration, allowing us to personalise treatment depending on the joint affected, the severity of osteoarthritis, and individual patient needs.

nStride Injections. nStride is a cutting-edge treatment designed for the management of osteoarthritis (OA), a degenerative joint condition characterised by the breakdown of cartilage, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility..
