Derek spent his career supporting others. As Director of Care at Erskine Veterans Care, his role meant long days on his feet and little time sitting still. But knee osteoarthritis gradually began to take that away. The condition left him unable to finish even short walks with his golden-doodle.After trying other options, Derek decided to explored #Arthrosamid as a treatment in both #knees at Glasgow Private Clinic under the care of Dr. Manas Tiwari.When we caught up with Derek, he said:“Within in two weeks, I was fully pain free and back to normal. I think I only realised quite how bad my pain had been when I found myself almost learning to walk again and totally adjusting my gait. I was no longer stooping over and for the first time in years, I was fully upright again.“Now, I can walk my golden-doodle dog for miles. Previously, I’d sometimes have to ring one of the girls to come and pick us up. I was in too much pain to make the return journey.“And more than anything I can sleep. Bliss.”Now recently retired, Derek is enjoying a well earned change of pace after years of caring for others, spending time with his grandchildren and enjoying long #walks with his dog again.His story was recently featured in The Renfrewshire Gazette, click here to read Derek's story: https://lnkd.in/e4jqTYya#patientexperience #patientstory #Erskine #Renfrewshire #WestScotland #Scotland

Gill had been living with persistent knee pain that limited her mobility and confidence. After exploring further options, she was treated at Fortius Clinic in #London, where Sports & Exercise Medicine Consultant and founder of Citius Health Dr George Bownes , administered Arthrosamid®.Since then, she has experienced a significant improvement in her mobility, comfort, and ability to stay active.In her own words:“Everyone wants to know what my secret is. I’ve gone from being carted around the course in a buggy and wincing in pain if I had to step into a bunker, to now being able to do a full 18 holes, pain-free and really working on my game (and my swing). I sometimes forget that I ever had a sore knee! I fly up and down the stairs without thought rather than sidestepping them gingerly.I can’t emphasise enough how draining chronic pain can be – and my husband has absolutely noticed the difference in me, following my Arthrosamid® injection.I’m still working hard to build up strength in my legs – which suffered whilst my knee was in a bad way – with regular exercise and physiotherapy. But I can honestly say that Arthrosamid® gave me a new spring in my step!”Gill’s experience highlights how the right intervention, combined with continued #rehabilitation, can support meaningful improvements in day‑to‑day function and overall #wellbeing.👉 Read Gill’s full story here:https://ow.ly/hgqR50Yfrpx#kneeosteoarthritis #patientoutcomes #patientstory #rehab #sportsmedicine #movefreelivefully

Nick, a passionate golfer, had been living with ongoing knee pain that was limiting his mobility and affecting his enjoyment of the game.Three years ago, he received Arthrosamid® under the care of Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon Mr Andrew Miller, becoming one of the first #patients in #Wales to be treated with the hydrogel injection.Nearly three years post‑treatment, Nick reports that his knees remain pain‑free, flexible and in excellent condition. He’s playing golf 4–5 times a week, taking no painkillers, and says his knees feel “as good as new.”In his own words:“The beneficial effects of my treatment are quite simply amazing. It’s no exaggeration to say this simple injection can give you your life back — particularly if, like me, a large part of your life revolves around playing golf.”He adds:“I’ve responded particularly well and should definitely be considered a real success story. I always tell my friends not to delay seeking specialist advice — acting promptly made a real difference in my recovery.”Today, Nick is embracing retirement with confidence — playing regularly, moving freely, and planning his next chapter without knee pain holding him back.👉 Read Nick’s full story here:https://ow.ly/Iy7950YfrPl#KneeOsteoarthritis #Orthopaedics #SportsMedicine #PatientOutcomes #ClinicalCare #Golf

Claire, 54 always loved #exercise and team #sports. When she started to experience problems with her #knees around 8 years ago, it hit her hard. For years, #knee #osteoarthritis made everyday routines harder—dog walks, gym classes, and active time with her family. For years, #knee #osteoarthritis made everyday routines harder—dog walks, gym classes, and active time with her family. Earlier this year, Claire was treated for knee osteoarthritis by Mr John Dabis at Nuffield Health Parkside Hospital with#Arthrosamid, cutting‑edge #hydrogel (2.5% iPAAG) treatment.Reflecting on the outcomes she’s felt a few months after treatment, Claire said:“The injection has made such a difference to our life as a family – my husband and the children have really noticed how much happier I am now that I am able to be more active. I honestly feel like I am in my mid 30s again. Since the injection, I feel like we have been living the active family life we all enjoy. We enjoyed an active summer holiday, and have walking trips planned for the Lake District and Scotland later this year. Now I feel my knees will carry me up and along the fells and mountains without any of the previous pain or discomfort. The boost Arthrosamid® has given me … well it actually feels like I could skip!”Read Claire’s full journey: https://lnkd.in/dVBrXKdZ#patientstory #patientexperience #patientjourney #movefreelylivefully #orthopaedics #kneeosteoarthrititistreatment

🏃♀️ Sylvia’s Story: From Setbacks to Saddlebacks 🐎After a decade of persistent knee pain, Sylvia—a dedicated sports therapist and keen #runner—found herself having to step back from the activities she loved.“It stopped me running,” she explained. “As soon as it was getting bad, I just stopped. I’ve suffered with it for over 10 years now.”The #pain gradually worsened, interfering not only with #exercise but also with everyday #activities like #sleeping and climbing stairs.“I could live with it until probably about a year ago, when it stopped me sleeping,” Sylvia recalled. “That’s when you think, I need to do something with this soon.”Her journey took a hopeful turn when she met Dr Craig Sheridan at her initial consultation at Phoenix Hospital Chelmsford. With expert guidance and care, Sylvia underwent treatment at Pure Sports Medicine Chancery Lane, and the results were life-changing.Sylvia was back doing what she loves—running marathons around the world, supporting others through her therapy work, and even horse riding in Montana 🐴.“It’s given me back my sleep, my comfort, and the freedom to do the things I love.”Sylvia’s story is a testament to resilience, expert care, and the power of not giving up.

🌐 Contura Orthopaedics and Contura Vet at ICRS Boston 2025: Redefining Joint Health This week at the ICRS - International Cartilage Regeneration & Joint Preservation Society World Congress in #Boston, Contura Orthopaedics, together with our sister company Contura Vet, showcased clinical data, spanning both human and veterinary applications of injectable polyacrylamide hydrogel (2.5% iPAAG) implant.ICRS Conference Highlights included:  8 clinical studies: 7 abstracts (scientific posters) sharing new data and insights, 3 presentations in the main conference agenda, 1 additional talk given in a specialist session.  🔬 Mode of Action Arthrosamid® is a soft and elastic material designed to biomechanically increase synovial elasticity in patients with knee osteoarthritis, supporting improved mobility, range of motion, function, and pain relief as observed in clinical studies. Once injected, Arthrosamid® disperses in the synovial fluid and is cleared by normal intimal transport mechanisms into the synovial subintima. Its physical presence in the synovial membrane restores elasticity, reduces osteoarthritis drivers, and provides lasting pain relief. 💡 Unified Innovation, Global Impact Contura’s 2.5% iPAAG hydrogel technology is redefining joint care for people and animals alike. Our commitment is to support improved quality of life—driven by robust science and real-world results.  Watch highlights from Boston, including key studies, team moments, and insights into the science powering our innovations.

Charlie Goodchild, physiotherapist and co-creator of the rehab plan from healthcare business Better commented:"While physiotherapists have the expertise to create rehab plans, time and technology constraints often limit their ability to provide personalised programmes. Many still rely on handwritten notes or basic printouts from ineffective exercise plan templates. Giving clinicians access to high-spec video content of high-quality rehab exercises via a customisable platform will lead to better treatment outcomes and more importantly less painful knees!"This free digital tool allows healthcare professionals to create and share tailored rehabilitation plans using over 20 clinically guided exercises. Plans can be delivered via PDF or web link, making personalised recovery more accessible than ever.Read more: https://lnkd.in/dGZp_M7n#rehabtool #rehabplans #movefreelylivefully #Arthrosamid

🏃♂️ Mark Warner: Running Again After Years of Knee PainFor six years, Mark Warner—dentist, #runner, and member of the Elvet Striders—lived with chronic knee pain. He tried everything: acupuncture, steroid injections, even considered knee replacement surgery. Then he discovered Arthrosamid®.“I was struggling to #sleep. Bending my knee was affecting #work and even sitting down, even putting on socks became difficult. #Walking was #painful and #running was totally out of the question - I thought my running days were finished” he explained. “I thought maybe I could delay surgery, so I got back in touch with Paul Hobrough, a physiotherapist I’d seen before for sports injuries."With the #guidance of #physiotherapist Paul Hobrough, Mark opted for a single injection. Now, just four months later, his quality of life has transformed. When asked if he’d recommend the #treatment, Mark doesn’t hesitate:“I’d definitely recommend the injection. It’s helped delay knee replacement surgery and I’m back to running again. There’s a group of us from Elvet Striders due to run the Chicago Marathon in October 2025 and I’m hoping to run competitively there with my training partners.”👉 Read Mark’s full story: https://lnkd.in/dwNhGq3B#Arthrosamid #kneepainrelief #kneepaintreatment #patientstory #patientexperience #ChicagoMarathon2025 #jointhealth #movefreelylivefully #orthopaedics #health #sportsmedicine

I’m Robert Clark had lived with knee pain for years, managing it with paracetamol and supplements that offered only limited relief.A scan for what he thought was a groin strain revealed hip arthritis and led him to Dr George Bownes While discussing hip treatment, Robert mentioned his persistent knee discomfort.“That’s why I bumped into George,” he said. “I’d long since given up hope that anything could really help.”George introduced him to Arthrosamid®. One morning, Robert received the injection guided by ultrasound.Three months later, he completed several stages of Ride Le Loop a demanding cycling event.“My knees weren’t even a factor — my hip hurt, yes, but my knees didn’t,” he said.“I forget I even have knee issues.”“It’s given me a level of freedom I haven’t felt in years” he reflects. “And that, for me, is worth everything.”📖 https://ow.ly/z4mJ50WxnKP#Arthrosamid #HealthcareInnovation #PatientExperience #LeLoop #Cycling #OsteoarthritisReliefCitius Health

🎾 New Knees Please 🎾 As a Wimbledon fan, whilst Middle Sunday did raise a few eyebrows when it came in, for me it was a great opportunity for more fans to have their own Wimbledon Experience. Having worked as a Court Coverer whilst at University, lived on Church Road during my GP training & worked as a Sports Medicine Doctor for the Players for many years, Wimbledon is a great experience however you interact with it. Wonderful this week to therefore treat one of the Members of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, Sharon Wake-Walker with Arthrosamid, the novel injection for knee osteoarthritis at Complete Physio Listening to her entertaining stories of having a hit with Gentleman’s Singles Champion of 2002 Lleyton Hewitt, who highly rated Sharon’s backhand she tells me, to understanding how much playing with her grandchildren gives her joy, but her knee was now holding her back from both these two loves. Ace therefore to give her the Advantage of Arthrosamid & avoiding surgery at this stage so we can get her back to enjoying her life. Whilst Arthrosamid may not be a magic bullet, we are getting encouraging results through the experience gained via our Retired Athlete Programme at Citius Health which we are then transferring to help everyday people improve their knee function.

Katie has always had horses, and has worked with them, and so was aware of #Arthramid, which is designed to reduce pain and swelling and help the joint heal. She started #researching the equivalent for humans #Arthrosamid, backed by scientific #clinicaldata and manufactured by the same company.Reflecting on her journey, Katie shared: “It’s not perfect, but Arthrosamid has been a game-changer for me. I do experience knee pain at night and if I’ve had a particularly busy day, but the relief that I am able to be much more active is palpable.

The “game changing” hydrogel injection, Arthrosamid - pionnered by Contura Orthopaedics Ltd - is having a transformative effect on so many patients across the UK, Europe and now Canada, living with knee osteoarthritis (OA). And from the very outset, its benefits have been particularly seen across the equestrian community - where both horses and riders are finding themselves back in fine fettle following treatment with a minimally invasive hydrogel injection. We were therefore thrilled to place this inspiring patient story in the equestrian bible that is Horse and Hound magazine, using an authentic lived experience to showcase Arthrosamid’s “horse to human” history and the very real impact of hydrogel injections #painrelief #arthritis #equestrian #veterinary #kneepain #hydrogel #medicalinnovation #awareness Arthramid https://lnkd.in/edw_j9-y

The therapeutic area of orthopedics is in acute translational stage with a big amount of pre-clinical projects accumulated in the recent years and a growing number of those entering clinical development. The conference of Advanced Therapies in Orthopaedics Foundation (ATiO) gathered in Berlin the fundamental scientists, clinical researchers, biotech entrepreneurs and investors racing to bring new treatments to the therapeutic area with huge unmet medical needs. Contura, whose injectable synovial implant is already changing the paradigm of osteoarthritis treatment, is among the frontrunners of this race. Development of stem cell-derived products is among hottest topics in orthopedics in the last couple of years. Contura participated in the research vs reaction debates as a reactor to research of Prof. Mario Gimona on extracellular vesicles from mesenchimal stem cells in treatment of tendon pathologies. Contura International is proud to contribute to the scientific progress in orthopedics. Contura Orthopaedics Ltd Ieva Ankorina-Stark

Poetry of scientific development in medicine. The therapeutic area of #jointhealth which used to be conservative for decades, currently lives through the period of explosive growth in scientific research and transformational changes in R&D approaches. The scientific development in this therapeutic area resembles an epic drama written according to the rules of classical dramaturgy with its own heroes and villains, romantic revolutionaries and cynical sceptics, bold visionaries and conservative followers, and excited spectators.   The latest act of this drama was staged during the last days at the annual congress of OARSI - Osteoarthritis Research Society International in the futuristic South Korean city of Incheon, which served as excellent stage scenery. Gladiators of medical science (and their investors) came to the arena to fight with their revolutionary concepts, ideas, and clinical data on #biopharmaceuticals, #genetherapies, #stemcell technologies, #tissueengineering, innovative implants, and #biotech products. And despite many casualties in this deadly fight of ideas and concepts, the therapeutic field is steadily moving toward helping more and more patients with osteoarthritis. Contura International with its visually simplistic and elegant (according to the traditions of Danish design 😊) but conceptually revolutionary therapeutic solution - injectable synovial implant, is in the forefront of the scientific advances in #osteoarthritis.     At the OARSI 2025 congress, Prof. Martyn Snow, Keele University and Karina Wright, the Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopedic Hospital in the UK presented the results of their latest study on how Contura’s product affects the joint health. Contura extends the scientific frontiers in osteoarthritis with a bold vision and steady implementation.    Thanks to Prof. Marius Henriksen, Prof. SUSAN Chubinskaya, Prof. Henning Madry, Prof. Ali Mobasheri, Prof. Robin Christensen, BSc, MSc, PhD, and many other colleagues for your ideas and productive discussions.

For 4 years we’ve been working with the inspiring team at Contura Orthopaedics Ltd, helping to raise awareness - across myriad media platforms - around the benefits of Arthrosamid,THE hydrogel injection for patients suffering with debilitating knee pain and immobility. So, this was a particularly cool piece of coverage to land - expertly crafted by the wonderful Adrian Monti - who we’ve also had the pleasure of working with for many years! 100% worth the £1.99 M+ subscription to read about the impact of Arthrosamid on former Olympic athlete, Allison Curbishley: “…….Allison is now back to her former active lifestyle – after having an injection of a gel normally used to treat lame horses.Doctors hope it will delay younger patients needing a knee replacement by years.More than 100,000 people a year in the UK undergo knee replacement surgery. Although the average age for the procedure is 70, around one in six patients are under 60.An artificial joint usually lasts about 20 years. It’s hoped the new gel, called Arthrosamid, could postpone when patients need their first knee replacement, potentially avoiding the need for a second one in later years….”Anecdotally…potential patients have already read the feature in full and are booking in for consultations across a network of clinics in the UK where the treatment is available. #PRworks ! 💪https://lnkd.in/di8Ej-dS

Thrilled to share that Allison Curbishley's feature is in today's print and online edition of the Daily Mail!Like millions in this country, Allison, 48, was suffering from #osteoarthritis, where cushioning cartilage in the joint wears away, and doctors were warning her that a knee replacement might be her only option.Despite finding even going down the stairs virtually impossible at times, Allison didn’t feel ready to undergo this surgery.‘I knew if I had one [a replacement knee] that young, it would probably need replacing in about 20 years,’ says Allison, now a BBC broadcaster who lives near Hexham, Northumberland, with partner Steve Cram, 64, the Olympic silver medallist and athletics commentator. ‘But I didn’t think I had many other options.’Yet Allison is now back to her former active lifestyle – after having a single injection of #Arthrosamid (2.5% iPAAG).If you are a Daily Mail + subscriber, the article is available online: https://lnkd.in/di8Ej-dSOr grab a copy of the print article today!📰 #DailyMail #Arthrosamid #Healthcare #MoveFreelyLiveFully #PatientStory

Imaging doesn't always match the level of knee pain in osteoarthritis. As our Consultant Orthopaedic Knee Surgeon, Mr Chethan Jayadev, explains, symptoms often arise from synovial inflammation or bone stress, not cartilage loss alone.Arthrosamid injections offer patients effective, non-surgical relief by targeting joint inflammation directly.Refer your patients to the knee pain experts at RNOH Private Care to explore this minimally invasive, pain-relieving treatment option.🔗Visit rnohprivatecare.com 📞Phone 020 3947 0049 📧 Email rnoh.pcenquiries@nhs.net#rnoh #privatehospital #nhs #orthopaedics #kneereplacement #boneconditions #surgery #nervedamage #rehabilitation #painmanagement #specialistconsultant #kneepain #osteoarthritis

Dr. Nicholas Jones underwent treatment with the hydrogel injection, #Arthrosamid in June 2024. Eight months on, Nick’s still feeling “80-90% pain free” and back to enjoying his regular 5k #runs without the fear of his #knee swelling and stiffening up. Dr. Jones shared his experience with Arthrosamid®:“As I expected, the local anaesthetic felt like a fleeting ‘bee sting’ but after that, the procedure was pretty much painless…and quick. And within a month, post-treatment, I really could notice the difference - a significant reduction in pain and swelling. In fact, I was actually back out pounding the streets within 3 weeks, such was the improvement.“As a doctor, I’m interested in the ‘synovial science’ around hydrogel injections – and I’m also really encouraged by the emerging, published data showing that patients are recording a reduction in the pain and discomfort caused by knee for up to 4 years. I’d certainly consider a ‘top up’ if needs be (if it meant staving off knee replacement surgery even longer) and I’m also starting to think I might eventually need an Arthrosamid® injection in my left knee, too!“I’ve certainly already recommended Arthrosamid® to friends and colleagues and would urge other people in a similar position to me to explore this treatment as a very real alternative to knee replacement surgery.”Read his full journey here: https://ow.ly/OUwc50V7rPt #KneeOA #Orthopaedics #JointHealth #Healthcare

🦵#Osteoarthritis is a growing concern, with around 528 million people affected globally—an increase of 113% since 1990. By 2050, predictions show that this number could reach one billion, with #kneeosteoarthritis rising by nearly 75%.We teamed up with top #physiotherapists @Charlie-Goodchild and @Nick-Guth. They put together an easy video tutorial-based #rehab programme that’ll help you, just like Dale, feel confident and get the most out of your patient's exercise recovery. 💬 Charlie, physiotherapist and co-creator of the exercise #rehab plan, from the #healthcare business Better explains: “Knee osteoarthritis can’t be cured, but with a long-term commitment to exercise, there is a better chance of living a more active life that is less affected by knee pain. Deciding what to do to help manage knee OA can be difficult – but one thing is certain, exercise is proven to help strengthen muscles and support joints. Movement is good for everybody, at any stage of arthritis. The key is to choose exercise best suited to your current abilities” 💬 💬 Nick Guth, physiotherapist specialist in knee pain and injury adds: “We’re passionate about educating patients on the power of exercise to strengthen and support the knee – and to bring a better range of movement and mobility throughout the whole body. Each person will require a different dose of exercise to achieve optimal results. It requires just the right amount of difficulty so that you fatigue your tissues, which triggers an adaptive response within your body which strengthens the tissues and helps them cope better the next time. It’s finding the “goldilocks” zone that’s “just right” for you - too little leads to the wastage of tissue and too much may cause a flare-up.” 💬

Like Dale, it is natural to fear injury, especially when #knee #pain has held you back for years. However, with expert-guided #exercises, it is possible for them to safely rebuild their #strength and #confidence to return to the #activities they love – whether it is playing a round of golf, staying active, or spending more time with #friends and #family. Strengthening #muscles and supporting #joints through a long-term commitment to movement can help lead a more #active life, less affected by knee pain. Alongside #physiotherapists Charlie Goodchild and Nick Guth, we developed an easy-to-follow #video tutorial-based free #rehabilitation #programme. Accessible #online, the programme is tailored for different levels of #fitness:👉 Early stage: This is for those who haven’t exercised much before or for a long time and who experience higher levels of discomfort during movement. 👉 Intermediate: For people who’ve exercised moderately in recent years and have less discomfort in day-to-day activities. 👉 Advanced: For those who have been regularly active for many years and may have used a gym to keep fit in the recent past. Each plan includes video demos of exercises like “Sit to Stand” and guidance on cardiovascular training such as cycling, rowing, or walking, using equipment like the treadmill, where available. These plans are designed to be adaptable for all levels and will help build strength gradually. In a gym setting, at home, or on holiday... this programme supports patients to consistently “show up” for their recovery.

In January, we participated in the National Running Show in #Birmingham to raise awareness within the #running community about how #Arthrosamid can help runners with #knee #osteoarthritis stay active for longer.📍 The National Running Show Birmingham (25-26th January, NEC) brings together:✅ Inspirational speakers 🎤✅ Cutting-edge technology 🏃♂️💡✅ Expert coaches 🏅✅ The best races & training advice 🏁This is one of the biggest community gatherings of the year, perfectly timed for runners training for Spring events!🤝 We were proud to be part of the Steve Cram Training Camp stand. A huge thank you to Allison Curbishley for sharing her experience seven months after receiving Arthrosamid® treatment, Paul Hobrough-Shockwave Mentor for his invaluable insights during the sessions and to Ian May from the Contura UK team.🎙️ Before the event, we caught up with physiotherapist Paul Hobrough, who has treated some of the biggest names in British sport. He shared:💬 “I’ve been working with Allison and Steve for many years, so I know the impact that knee osteoarthritis has on Allison’s life. She works extremely hard to maintain her fitness, but this has become increasingly limited by knee pain.I’ve treated patients with Arthrosamid® and have seen them experience significant reductions in pain, as well as improvements in their mobility and overall quality of life. I was confident Allison was an ideal candidate. Unlike other treatments, Arthrosamid® appears to provide longer-lasting respite from the pain and immobility of knee osteoarthritis—helping patients delay or avoid surgery. I believe it’s setting a real benchmark in orthopaedics, offering hope and optimism to those living with this condition.”📖 Want to learn more about Allison’s journey?

Arthrosamid® is the first and only approved 2.5% iPAAG treatment that permanently integrates into the synovial membrane — decreasing joint stiffness, diminishing pain, and improving the function of the knee. Acting as a synovial scaffold, Arthrosamid® distributes within the synovial fluid to fully integrate into the synovial membrane, thickening it and providing a physical barrier that breaks the inflammatory cycle to relieve pain.If you would like to learn more about Arthrosamid® (2.5% iPAAG) clinical data, visit our results page https://lnkd.in/dfTeRtmq or to find out how it can help knee osteoarthritis patients, contact us at enquiries@arthrosamid to speak with a member of our team.#Arthrosamid #Orthoapedics #JointHealth #Osteoarthritis #KneePain #PainRelief #HealthcareInnovation #JointTreatment #Synovium #Pioneering #Proven #KneePainTreatment #PatientCare

📢 Former professional golfer and broadcaster Dale Hayes shares his #Arthrosamid journey one year post-treatment. Treated in July 2023 at King Edward VII Hospital by Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon Mark Webb and Consultant Musculoskeletal Radiologist Rajat Chowdhury from Grosvenor Orthopaedic Partners LLP Dale sat down with The Better Health Podcast to talk about his experience.🎙️Sharing his experience Dale said: “Both, you know, explain to me in, in a simple way what they were doing and at all times and, and very efficient. And, and as I said, it took 20 minutes. It was crazy. You know, I thought I was going to be there for hours. I had thoughts that I might even have to stay overnight. And I mean, 20 minutes later, they said I could get up and go and I'd, you know, I was actually, I was a little bit, you know, reticent to, to actually stand up because I didn't know my legs would cave in, you know, and, and I got up and off I went.” 💉 Arthrosamid® is administered via a simple, one-step #procedure performed under local anaesthesia by a qualified #physician, such as an #orthopaedic #surgeon or #rheumatologist— ensuring you’re in and out of the clinic the same day. 🦵It is the first and only approved injectable #treatment that is permanent and is proven to maintain a significant, long-lasting reduction in #knee #osteoarthritis (OA) pain – even 4 years post-treatment.

Horse v Human Interesting case related to Contura Orthopaedics Ltd & Arthrosamid this week at Complete Physio An active 48 year old mother of four presented to clinic referred by an Orthopaedic Knee Surgical colleague requesting Arthrosamid because she has been giving the equestrian equivalent to her horses for years & her Vet suggested she needed to take as much care for her own health as she did her horses.I had to laughThe reality is this story is all too familiar in musculoskeletal medicineHorses & animals in general often get far more money spent on their health & therefore better care than their human ownersThis ladies history & appreciation of the history of Arthrosamid and how she has seen first hand how its sister equestrian products use in her own horses changed their lives & allowed them to continue to compete at the highest level is testimony to how this innovative hydrogel can improve outcomes in the right patient group with the right rehabilitationReally pleased to be able to help this lady on her journey to a healthier and happier life by providing her an Arthrosamid injection and I’m looking forward to seeing how well with rehabilitation we can improve her long term outcome #horse #medicine #human #kneepain #kneerehab

Patients with knee osteoarthritis can now schedule an appointment to learn more about #Arthrosamid at Pure Sports Medicine clinics in London and the South East.

When a friend from South Africa presented Dale Hayes with the option of surgery, he was very reluctant. He knew it would take several weeks before he could get back on his feet and move around normally, and the thought of spending time in the hospital made surgery a last resort for him. So, Dale flew to the UK to give the injection a go. After receiving a single dose of Arthrosamid® in July 2023 at King Edward VII’s Hospital, Dale feels much better - he is looking forward to staying active and playing golf again.

This past weekend, Ian May from Contura and I had the privilege of attending the National Running Show, representing Arthrosamid and Contura Orthopaedics Ltd For some time, I've been passionate about raising awareness within the running community about the benefits of Arthrosamid. Our presenting team at the Steve Cram training camp stand featured esteemed Olympians and friends, making for an inspiring atmosphere.The discussions surrounding Arthrosamid drew an enthusiastic audience, with standing room only, and we received fantastic feedback from attendees. It was truly an impactful weekend, especially considering the weather warnings that nearly forced us to cancel. We persevered and delivered what felt like groundbreaking education to the next group of patients who could benefit from Arthrosamid. Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to this incredible experience!

Dale Hayes shared his experience following treatment with a single injection of #Arthrosamid on The Better Health Podcast, hosted by Charlie Goodchild. In the episode, Dale discussed his diagnosis, treatment process, and the impact Arthrosamid has had on his daily life.Dale was treated in July 2023 after being consulted by Orthopaedic Surgeon Mark Webb and receiving care from Consultant Musculoskeletal Radiologist Rajat Chowdhury at Grosvenor Orthopaedic Partners.This video is clip 2 of a 7-part series, it highlights key points from Dale’s journey. For those interested in learning more about #knee #osteoarthritis and available treatment options, this series provides useful insights.The podcast's full episode is available on Better's website: https://ow.ly/O6er50UMwMf (or on Spotify)🎧

As #2025 begins, we are pleased to share the story of former GB #athlete Allison Curbishley's journey to regain her #mobility and reduce the #pain and #discomfort caused by #knee #osteoarthritis.As a former British 400m athlete, Allison Curbishley competed at the World and Olympic Games, winning medals at the Commonwealth and European Championships. Unfortunately, her career was cut short by escalating knee problems, including 10 surgeries, which led to her retirement in 2003.Now based in #Northumberland with her partner, Steve Cram, Allison works as a BBC broadcaster, runs an events company, and holds a Sport and Exercise Sciences degree from the University of Birmingham. While staying active post-retirement, she’s had to adjust her activities due to pain and mobility challenges caused by knee osteoarthritis (OA).Allison met physiotherapist Paul Hobrough over a decade ago and has been seeing him since for treatment to manage discomfort and improve mobility linked to her former injuries.Six months ago, she tried #Arthrosamid to help reduce her pain and improve her mobility. Since then, she has noticed positive changes in her daily activities. Allison mentioned: "I had treatment with Arthrosamid® six months ago now (11th July 2024)– it’s a simple, single hydrogel injection, performed quickly (15 minutes) and without pain in Paul’s clinic. I only felt a slight discomfort at the site of injection itself but was then able to bend my knee to a decent degree and was back at home recovering the same day. The slight swelling came down after a couple of days with some anti-inflammatories, and I was able to walk around all day with no pain. In under a week, I was sleeping well, with much improved knee flexion, greater range of movement and I was feeling the “fire” back in my quads."Discover Allison's full journey since receiving a single injection of #Arthrosamid by visiting our website: https://ow.ly/yuNI50ULJ70 #KneeHealth #AthleteJourney #MobilityMatters #PainManagement #SportsTherapy #ExerciseScience #Physiotherapy #AllisbonCurbishley

The media report "Under Pressure: A Report on the State of the Nation's Knees" discusses various topics related to maintaining knee health. Key statistics from the report indicate that 86% of respondents believe physical exercise is essential for mental well-being.As Dr @Sarah-Davies, Consultant in Musculoskeletal (MSK), Sport and Exercise Medicine and Founding Partner of Panacea Health acknowledges, it’s a fine balance between reducing your risk of osteoarthritis and enjoying the activities you love.“We are likely to accumulate traumas to our bodies as we go through life,” she says. “Avoiding sport will not stop that from happening. Appropriate strength training beforehand — including exercises like squats, lunges, and deadlifts (with suitable weights) — can build up support and improve the mobility of the knee. This can help you remain active longer. But it's important to never take your knees for granted.”If you missed the report or would like to learn more about our recently launched #rehabilitation programme, please visit our resources section page: https://ow.ly/7JHS50UfWMi

Ok Deciding how to manage #knee #osteoarthritis can be challenging, but #exercise has been proven to help strengthen #muscles and support #joints.Our #rehabilitation programme has been specifically designed to help #patients who have undergone treatment with hydrogel injection, Arthrosamid®. However, it is also suitable for anyone with knee osteoarthritis, from early to later stages.Together with #physiotherapists Charlie Goodchild and Nick Guth, we have developed three exercise plans tailored for different groups:🔹Early Stage: For those who haven't exercised much before or not for a long time, as well as those who experience higher levels of discomfort during movement. 🔹 Intermediate: For individuals who have exercised moderately in recent years and have less discomfort in their day-to-day activities. 🔹 Advanced: For those who have been regularly active for many years and may have previously used a gym to maintain their fitness.To help patients determine the right level for them, we created a short #questionnaire. The questionnaire can be accessed via our website alongside an introduction video given by Charlie and Nick.
