Low Dose Radiation Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment designed to relieve pain and inflammation in joints affected by osteoarthritis, especially for those who have not responded to conventional therapies. LDRT uses a small amount of radiation—just enough to calm inflammation and improve mobility—with virtually no side effects.
LDRT is changing the way we treat osteoarthritis—gently, safely, and effectively.
LDRT targets the affected joint with a small dose of radiation that is significantly lower than what is used in cancer treatment or some diagnostic imaging.
This dose helps reduce inflammation and modulate the immune response, slowing or halting the progression of osteoarthritis rather than just masking symptoms.
Each session is quick—about 10 minutes total, with the actual treatment time being less than 20 seconds per joint. A full course involves 6 to 8 sessions given twice weekly over a few weeks.
Rapid Pain Relief
Many patients notice improvement after just one treatment, with maximum benefit after six sessions.
