Our clinic is now proud to offer Iovera° a non-opioid, in-office treatment that delivers targeted pain relief using the power of cold.
What Is lovera°?
lovera° is a cutting-edge treatment that uses precise cold therapy to temporarily block nerves from sending pain signals. It’s FDA-cleared, performed right in our office, and results can often be felt immediately. Think of it as a “freeze away the pain” option with no incisions, no opioids, and no downtime.
How Does Iovera° Work?
Using a specialized handheld device, your provider applies cold therapy directly to the nerves causing your pain. The cold interrupts pain signals, providing relief while the nerve naturally regenerates over time.
- Takes less than an hour
- Immediate or same-day relief for many patients
- Pain relief typically lasts 3 to 4 months (sometimes longer)
- Repeatable as needed
Ideal for Total Knee Replacement PatientsIovera° is frequently used in patients before and/or after total knee replacement surgery to:
- Decrease surgical site pain
- Improve comfort during rehabilitation
- Reduce or eliminate the need for opioids
- Support faster recovery with better mobility
It can be part of a comprehensive pain management plan to help you heal and get back to your life with less pain and fewer medications.
Who Can Benefit from Iovera°?You may be a good candidate if you:
- Have chronic knee pain or arthritis
- Are preparing for or recovering from knee replacement surgery
- Are looking to avoid or reduce opioid use
- Have not found relief with injections or other conservative treatments
What to Expect During TreatmentThe Iovera° procedure is done in-office and typically takes 30-60 minutes. After applying a local anesthetic, your provider will treat specific nerve areas using the Iovera° device. Most patients walk out of the office and resume normal activities the same day.
