Non-surgical orthopaedic treatments available in Brighton
MOATI believes in holistic health care that uses non-surgical and surgical (if needed) methods for positive patient outcomes. The following is a list of non-surgical therapies Dr Siva Chandrasekaran and his team use to alleviate musculoskeletal discomfort.
Exercise conditioning program
A carefully constructed exercise program created for your specific requirements can help you return to normal functioning faster. These programs are especially helpful after injuries(such as fractures), surgery and for those who suffer from arthritis.
Check out our hip exercises or knee exercises that are designed to increase strength and reduce pain.
Injections
We use injections of corticosteroids, platelet-rich plasma and hyaluronic acid to relieve discomfort, improve function and reduce swelling. These medications are injected directly into or around your joint.
Radiofrequency ablation
This minimally invasive treatment deactivates the nerves that send the painful sensations to your brain. Radiofrequency ablation is an effective therapy to manage chronic pain in the joints.
Non-surgical methods to treat joint issues include light exercising conditioning programs, injections or nerve ablation.
Surgical treatments available in Brighton
Dr Chandrasekaran will only recommend surgery if there is no other option to alleviate your symptoms and heal injuries. You can check out these pages for more information on surgical treatments for joint pain.

Hip and knee arthroscopy
This key-hole procedure is used to diagnose and treat several different conditions, such as anterior cruciate ligament tears of the knee or partial meniscus tears.
Hip and knee replacement surgery
Chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis, trauma and general wear and tear may necessitate hip or knee joint replacement surgery.
Robotic joint replacement surgery
Advanced robotic technology allows surgeons to use a robotic arm to assist in the planning, execution and checking of artificial joint components during your procedure. This allows for precise and meticulous surgery.
Occasionally, there is no option except for surgery. In this case, Dr Siva can use arthroscopy, or joint replacement surgery to help you.
