Healing Beyond Pain: Conditions & Injuries Treated at CHARM

Whether recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or simply not functioning at your best, you deserve a treatment approach that addresses the problem at its source. We combine the most advanced regenerative medicine, interventional pain management, and physical therapies to restore your body’s natural function and support long-term healing.

Here, we’ll explore the wide range of conditions and injuries we treat, and how our experienced, compassionate team of musculoskeletal experts in physical medicine, rehabilitation, and physical therapy partners with you every step of the way toward optimal recovery and performance.

Orthopedic & Joint Pain Conditions

Joint and musculoskeletal pain can limit everything from your daily movements to your overall quality of life. That’s why we use advanced regenerative medicine techniques to address the underlying causes of orthopedic and joint pain, including:

  • Osteoarthritis (knee, hip, shoulder, spine, ankle, feet, hands)
  • Degenerative joint disease
  • Labral tears (hip and shoulder)
  • Meniscus and cartilage injuries
  • Tendonitis and tendinosis (e.g., patellar, gluteal, biceps, rotator cuff)
  • Ligament sprains or partial tears (ACL, MCL, UCL)
  • Sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction
  • Facet joint pain and spinal arthritis

Sports Injuries Treated at CHARM

Whether you’re a competitive athlete or a weekend warrior, sports injuries can be frustrating and disruptive to your performance and lifestyle. At CHARM, we treat a range of common sports injuries, including:

  • Rotator cuff strains and tears
  • Tennis and golfer’s elbow (lateral and medial epicondylitis)
  • ACL, MCL, and meniscal injuries
  • Achilles tendonitis or partial tears
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Patellar tendonitis (jumper’s knee)
  • Muscle contusions and overuse injuries
  • Recurrent sprains and instability

Neurological & Nerve-Related Conditions

Nerve-related conditions can cause many symptoms, from tingling and numbness to chronic pain and muscle weakness. Our team also treats a range of common neurological and nerve-related conditions, including:

  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Radiculopathy (nerve root compression in the neck or lower back)
  • Sciatica
  • Brachial plexus injuries
  • Occipital neuralgia
  • Tarsal tunnel syndrome
  • Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)

Chronic Pain & Inflammation

Chronic pain and inflammation can take a serious toll on your physical health and emotional well-being. Fortunately, our advanced regenerative techniques can help combat:

  • Myofascial pain syndrome
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Chronic low back or neck pain
  • Chronic joint inflammation (e.g., knees, hips, shoulders)
  • Sacroiliitis
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Chronic tendinopathy
  • Inflammatory arthritis (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis)

Functional Medicine and Whole-Body Conditions

Pain and dysfunction often stem from imbalances or issues that affect the body as a whole. Through a functional lens, our clinicians help address or assist in the coordination of care through referral to a functional medicine expert to optimize your healing journey if you are experiencing symptoms associated with:

  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)
  • Post-viral or post-infectious syndromes (e.g., Long COVID)
  • Hormonal imbalances (e.g., thyroid dysfunction, adrenal fatigue)
  • Nutrient deficiencies and malabsorption
  • Gut-brain axis disorders (e.g., leaky gut, IBS-related fatigue)
  • Age-related decline in physical performance and recovery

CHARM’s Non-Surgical Regenerative Treatments to Relieve Pain

Each therapy is carefully chosen based on your condition, goals, and the underlying source of dysfunction. Here are some of the key regenerative and interventional treatments we provide:

PRP Therapy to Stimulate Healing Without Surgery

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses a concentrated form of your body’s own platelets to promote healing in injured tendons, ligaments, joints, and muscles. This natural approach jumpstarts the repair process, improving joint stability and reducing pain. PRP is ideal for patients seeking alternatives to surgery.

Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) for Effective Pain Relief

Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) is obtained by extracting liquid bone marrow from the hip region, specifically the iliac crest. This concentrated solution is injected into the area affected by injury or pain. BMAC contains adult stem cells that help promote growth and repair in damaged joints and surrounding tissues, making it especially effective for more severe injuries or cases of degeneration.

Prolotherapy for Chronic Tissue Pain

Prolotherapy involves injecting a solution—often dextrose-based—into areas of chronic pain or instability to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. It’s particularly effective for ligament laxity, joint instability, and persistent soft tissue pain.

Epidural Steroid Injections for Neck and Back Pain

Epidural steroid injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly into the epidural space surrounding spinal nerves. This targeted relief is often used for patients with herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or nerve compression contributing to neck or low back pain.

Platelet Lysate to Stimulate Healing After Nerve Injury

Platelet lysate is another regenerative treatment made from a patient’s blood, processed to isolate healing growth factors while removing inflammatory components. It’s often used for nerve-related conditions like nerve root compression or peripheral nerve injuries. Unlike steroids, which may reduce inflammation but can impair healing and degrade tissue over time, platelet lysate supports nerve repair and functional recovery by enhancing the body’s natural regenerative processes.

Clinical Botox for Headaches and Migraines

Clinical-grade Botox injections can reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraines and tension headaches by relaxing overactive muscles and calming nerve pathways. It’s a safe, FDA-approved option for patients who have not found relief through conventional treatments.

Physical Therapy to Restore Function and Return to Living

Our in-house physical therapy team works closely with our medical staff to create customized rehab programs. Through movement re-education, input-based therapies, and innovative solutions like Redcord Neurac® and Neubie by NeuFit®, we help patients restore mobility, prevent re-injury, and return to active living.
