Viscosupplementation for Osteoarthritis Relief​

Lasting Relief for Knee Osteoarthritis Without Surgery

​

At Castello Wellness, we specialize in helping patients with chronic knee pain from osteoarthritis get back to an active life. If you’ve tried medications, physical therapy, or even steroid injections without lasting relief, viscosupplementation may be the next step.

We offer Hyalgan® and other FDA-approved hyaluronic acid injections right here in our Lombard and Joliet, IL clinics — a safe, in-office procedure covered by Medicare, most Medicare Advantage plans, and PPO insurance.

What Is Viscosupplementation?

Also known as rooster comb injections or gel injections

Viscosupplementation is an FDA approved injection of hyaluronic acid into the knee joint to:

• Lubricate and cushion the joint

• Reduce pain and stiffness

• Improve mobility and function

It’s especially helpful for moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis when other treatments aren’t enough.
