~One of the only two clinics in India to offer PEMF Therapy for Arthritis~
Bengaluru : Total Orthocare, one of the leading orthopaedic centers in Bengaluru introduces Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy which is a non-surgical treatment for arthritis in any joint which is positioned as the alternative to joint replacement surgery. Total Orthocare offers comprehensive ortho services treating a wide array of problems to its patients in India using the latest and most modern medical technologies and techniques.
PEMF therapy uses electromagnetic fields to treat Osteoarthritis & other Degenerative conditions of the Spine. The primary mechanism of action of PEMF-mediated pain-relief is to involve promoting the reduction and resolution of inflammation. PEMF also has a beneficial effect on chondrocyte proliferation, matrix synthesis and chondrogenic differentiation leading to Cartilage Repair & Regeneration. PEMF also aids in increasing cellular metabolism in the pain area helping to relieve chronic pain.
Speaking about offering this therapy, Dr. Shuaib Kausar, Founder & Orthopaedic Surgeon – Total Orthocare said, “I feel happy introducing PEMF therapy which can be of help to people who are suffering with arthritis. This latest therapy and its benefits are not known to many in India. However, this has been used worldwide as a replacement for painful surgeries & other kinds of treatments. The reason for the popularity of PEMF therapy is the fact that there is no surgery and medications required. It’s helpful in reducing medication for patients while offering no side effects. Being an orthopaedic surgeon with close to 15 years of experience in the field, I wanted to provide people with an alternative and effective treatment for arthritis pain and introducing PEMF therapy at the clinic has been a step forward in that direction.”
PEMF therapy is comparatively economical to other treatments provided for the same conditions. Total Orthocare offers it for Rs.65000 for its patients. In comparison, a Knee Replacement Surgery costs in excess of 2 lakhs per joint.
