The average pain scale reduced from "7/10" to less than "1/10" during the course of treatment.  On  followup 2 years later the average pain scale was still less than "1/10"

Patient satisfaction rates at follow up were 91.7%

Improves neck function

The findings from a recent study of 98 participants with long-term neck pain were - 

• 60 % stated their pain relief  from treatment was greater than 75%.

• 72% were able to stop taking pain medication and the rest reduced their pain medication by at least 50%.

• neck range of motion increased significantly.

Relieves shoulder pain

A recent study of 33 people presenting with a variety of shoulder pain disorders, were treated with 5% subcutaneous perineural injection therapy with good success.  

All experienced  a moderate improvement in shoulder movements, and a decrease of their pain score.  Patients reported being able to sleep on their painful shoulder side and were able to use their shoulder significantly more after treatment.

Patient satisfaction rates at follow up were  over 80%. The treatment was well tolerated and safe.

Relieves back pain

A study of 41 patients with persistent lower back pain (average 5.5 years), were successfully treated with a series of subcutaneous perineural injection therapy treatments.

90% of people improved by more than 50% and 29% of participants were pain free at the end of the allocated treatment period of 8 weeks.

Relieves headaches & migraines

Perineural Injection treatment is effective in treating headaches and migraines in many people.  Headaches and migraines are a common occurrence and can be multi-factorial in origin with various triggers.

Perineural injection therapy operates on the simple principle of  targeting nerves that can cause headache pain. Injections are given near the painful nerves to calm them down. 

Patients reported that headaches and/or migraines occurred with less frequency and intensity after treatment. 

Improves achilles tendinopathy

 A large study of 300 people with achilles tendinopathy reported a good response to Perineural Injection therapy with over 80% experiencing pain free resolution and return to sport.

Perineural injection therapy used in combination with eccentric loading exercises is more effective than exercises alone.

Runners reported that they were able to continue training, while their achilles was being treated with PIT.   Duration of time away from activity was significantly reduced.
