Non-Surgical Relief for Osteoarthritis

Low-Dose Radiation Therapy for Osteoarthritis

Halifax Health is at the forefront of treating osteoarthrosis with non-surgical options. Low Dose Radiation Therapy (LDRT) is an innovative, non-invasive option designed to help reduce inflammation and relieve osteoarthritis pain.

How Does It Work?

Osteoarthritis pain is largely driven by chronic inflammation in the joint. LDRT delivers radiation directly to that inflamed area, without affecting the rest of the body.

How Can It Help?

LDRT works by calming inflammation at the cellular level, helping to:

  • Reduce pain

  • Improve mobility

  • Enhance quality of life

  • Delay or avoid surgery

Many patients experience gradual improvement over weeks following treatment.

Is it Right for You?

Low Dose Radiation Therapy may be an option if you:

  • Have osteoarthritis pain that hasn’t improved with medication or therapy

  • Are not ready for, or not a candidate for surgery

  • Want a non-invasive treatment option

A consultation with our care team will determine if this treatment is right for you.
