Nonsurgical Treatments Offered at HSS Florida

Below are some examples of nonsurgical treatments offered at HSS Florida.

Therapeutic Injections

Injection treatments performed onsite include:

  • pain treatment/pain management injections, including epidural steroid injections
  • corticosteroid anti-inflammatory injections for osteoarthritis
  • ultrasound-guided injections by radiologists with specialty training in musculoskeletal ultrasound

Casting and Bracing

After a fracture, you may need a cast or a brace to ensure your bones heal properly. The type of treatment depends on the severity of the break and the bone that has been fractured. A cast is most often used to keep the bone in the optimal position for healing, whereas a brace supports an area and allows controlled movement.

Rehabilitation

We offer treatment for injuries and pain in the hand, wrist, elbow, low back and neck; sports injuries; and general orthopedic pain. You can book directly with a physical therapist or performance expert today – no prescription needed.
