Non-Surgical Treatments

These may include devices like braces or splints and injections into the injured area. When necessary, and after less invasive treatments have been explored, we’re prepared to offer advanced surgical solutions to get you back on your game as quickly as possible.

Treatment options:

Corticosteroids
Immobilization devices
Injections
Physical therapy
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
Stem cells

Broward Health physical therapists get you moving, often hours after surgery, to restore function and promote faster healing.

Treatment options:

Arthroscopy: Minimally invasive surgery for joint issues
Reconstructive surgery: Repairs for ligaments, tendons and other soft tissues
Fracture repair: Advanced techniques for optimal bone healing
