Joint Pain & Chronic Pain Care in Provo, UT
Precision-Guided, Non-Surgical Care and Treatment Options for Pain, Joints & Mobility
Pain and Joint treatment conditions
Pain and joint conditions often involve inflammation, tissue degeneration, sports injury, nerve irritation, or impaired healing. At Avara Medical, we focus on identifying the underlying contributors to pain and using targeted, non-surgical therapies to improve function, mobility, recovery, and quality of life.
Conditions We Commonly Address
Arthritis
Degenerative joint changes or Sport injuries can cause chronic pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Care may focus on reducing inflammation, supporting joint health, supporting recovery, and improving function.

Services Used in Pain & Joint Care including Chronic Pain
Ultrasound-Guided Injections
Used to deliver therapies with precision to joints, tendons, ligaments, and nerves using real-time imaging.
Shockwave Joint Therapy
Non-invasive acoustic wave therapy used to stimulate circulation, support healing, and reduce chronic tendon or joint pain.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Injections
Uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to support tissue repair in joints, tendons, and ligaments. Commonly used in Sport injury recovery.
A2M (Alpha-2-Macroglobulin) Therapy
May be used to help reduce inflammatory enzymes involved in cartilage breakdown in degenerative joint conditions.
Growth Factor Therapy
Uses biologic components to support tissue healing and recovery in areas of injury or degeneration.
Peptide Therapy
Selected peptides may be used to support tissue repair, inflammation modulation, and recovery as part of a comprehensive care plan.
Nerve Hydrodissection
A targeted injection technique used to relieve nerve irritation by separating nerves from surrounding tissue under ultrasound guidance.
Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB)
In certain cases, SGB may be used when pain involves sympathetic nervous system dysregulation or complex regional pain patterns.
Pain & Joint Frequently Asked Questions
We treat knee pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, spine pain, elbow pain, wrist and hand pain, ankle and foot pain, and other joint conditions. Our approach uses ultrasound-guided precision injections and regenerative therapies to target the source of pain.
We specialize in regenerative approaches to chronic pain, particularly musculoskeletal pain and joint conditions. We use advanced therapies like PRP, ultrasound-guided injections, and peptides rather than relying primarily on pain medications. We do not prescribe narcotics or other controlled substances for pain control.
Regenerative medicine uses therapies like PRP (platelet-rich plasma), stem cell therapies and A2M injections to support tissue healing and reduce inflammation in degenerating joints. We pair these treatments with shockwave therapy and HIFEM treatments. Together these treatments aim to slow progression and improve function rather than just masking pain.
Yes, we treat tendon and ligament injuries using ultrasound-guided injections, PRP therapy, stem cell therapies and targeted peptides. Paired with shockwave therapy and HIFEM sessions these treatments support tissue repair and may help avoid surgery in some cases.
Ultrasound guidance allows us to see exactly where we're placing the injection in real-time, ensuring precise delivery to the affected area. This improves accuracy, safety, and treatment effectiveness compared to landmark-based injections.
Yes, we commonly work with athletes and active individuals recovering from sports injuries. Our regenerative approach supports faster healing and helps patients return to activity more safely with fewer potential adverse effects.
Response time varies by individual and treatment type. Some patients notice improvement within weeks, while others may require several months and multiple treatments to achieve optimal results. We provide realistic timelines during your evaluation.
For some patients, regenerative therapies may delay or potentially avoid the need for surgery. However, they're not appropriate for all cases. We provide honest assessments about whether our treatments are likely to help your specific condition.
