# Regenerative injection therapy and hormone care in Fernie

I keep people in the game, not on the sidelines. Whether it's a knee that hasn't been right since that ski season, a shoulder that won't settle, or midlife hormone changes that are getting in the way, I'll help you figure out what's going on and treat it properly.

Built for mountain-town bodies

## For the injuries that keep pulling you off the hill, the trail or the bike

Most of my Fernie patients are active people who don't want to stop. They've tried rest, physio and anti-inflammatories, and the problem keeps coming back. Regenerative injection therapy targets the ligaments, tendons and joints that haven't fully healed, so you can get back to what you love and stay there.

Knee pain after an old ski or sports injury

Shoulder injuries that never fully recovered

Chronic low back and SI joint pain

Tendon problems like tennis elbow or Achilles pain

Ankle instability after repeated sprains

Arthritis that's limiting what you can do

Therapies available in Fernie

## The right therapy for what's going on in the tissue

I choose the therapy based on your assessment, not a one-size-fits-all protocol. Many visits combine more than one.

### PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

Uses your own blood's healing factors for more significant tendon and joint injuries. Available in Fernie only, since PRP is within ND scope in BC.

### Prolotherapy

Stimulates your body's own repair response in weakened ligaments and tendons.

### Prolozone and Ozone

Combines prolotherapy with ozone for joints, disc issues and tissue that need an extra anti-inflammatory push.

### Neural Therapy

Targets disrupted nerve signaling that keeps pain or dysfunction stuck in place.

### Perineural Therapy

Calms irritated peripheral nerves close to the skin's surface.

### Trigger Point Injections

Releases the tight, painful knots in muscle that refer pain elsewhere.

How I approach regenerative medicine

Midlife hormone care

## You've done the research. Let's have the conversation.

Midlife hormone shifts shouldn't mean giving up the energy and clarity you've always had. If you're in perimenopause or menopause and you've been dismissed, delayed or told to just wait it out, I'll take you seriously.

In BC, I have full prescribing rights for estrogen and progesterone, so we can assess, prescribe and adjust your care directly. Your first visit and treatment planning can happen in person on a Fernie day, with follow-ups done virtually.

Before you book

## What to expect

How many treatments will I need?

It depends on what we're treating. Most people need 3 to 6 treatments. Because I'm in Fernie every 4 to 6 weeks, we'll plan your injections around my Fernie dates.

Do the injections hurt?

Many of the formulas I use include a local anesthetic to keep you comfortable. Soreness for a day or two afterward is normal, and some people don't feel any at all.

Can I keep skiing, biking or training during treatment?

I recommend modified activity, never no activity. Movement is part of how tissue heals, so I'll give you specific guidance on what to scale back and for how long.

Do I need a referral or imaging first?

No referral is needed. If you've had an X-ray, MRI or ultrasound, please send the written report, not the images themselves.

Can hormone follow-ups be virtual?

Yes. Once we've done your initial assessment, most hormone follow-ups can be done by video, Monday to Friday.

Is it covered by insurance?

It depends on your plan. Your invoice lists the visit and the injection supplies separately. Some extended health plans cover both, while others cover only the visit.

## You don't have to keep working around it.

Book a visit on my next Fernie dates, or start with a virtual consult.
