Treatment of meniscus injury
Get help with laser therapy and shockwave
We help you with pain relief and increased healing of meniscus injuries with laser therapy and shockwave.
When we treat meniscus injuries in the clinic, we use laser treatment and shockwave in combination. But before treatment, we do a thorough clinical examination. At the same time, we always complement the clinical examination with an ultrasound scan. In this way, we can ensure that the correct course of treatment is initiated. Ultrasound scanning in the clinic is a standard part of our treatment solutions, and thus does not cost extra for you as a client. Expect 6-12 treatments, which will help to increase healing and provide a higher quality of rehabilitation.
Knee pain
Testimonials from customers
Effektiv og hurtigvirkende behandling, fra en yderst kompetent behandler. Forud for et løb fik jeg overbelastet mit knæ, hvilket resulteret i en del smerter og gjorde min deltagelse i løbet usandsynligt. Jeg var så heldig at få en tid på dag, hvilket resulteret i at jeg kunne gennemfører løbet uden nogen smerter – heller ikke efterfølgende. Jeg vil til en hver tid anbefale MS Insight.Christian Henderson
Michael fik styr på min knæskade efter blot 2 behandlinger.. Ingen ventetid og super effektiv behandling.. Tak for hjælpen. Mvh KnudKnud Hyltoft
Jeg modtog en meget professionel behandling af Michael. Jeg ankom med skuldersmerter, hvor min arm ikke kunne føres op til øret og inden jeg forlod klinikken var min skulder fuld funktionel og smertefri. Kan varmt anbefale MS insight. Den bedste behandling jeg længe har modtaget.Sissel Secher-Nielsen
Jeg har modtaget exceptionel god og meget effektiv behandling hos Michael ved MS Insight. Kombinationen af Shockwave og Magnetolith, har givet ekstremt gode og tydeligt mærkbare resultater, allerede inden jeg forlod klinikken. Michael er ekstrem dygtig, og kan med det udstyr klinikken besidder, hjælpe, hvor ingen andre har kunne, og endda med stor succes. Mine bedste anbefalinger. Du vil ikke fortryde dit besøg hos MS Insight – Jeg er imponeret.Louise Hansen
God behandling. Professionel og udforskende. Michael arbejder med mange former for behandling og det gør at man ikke behøver gå til 10 forskellige behandlinger. Hans viden og ekspertise er super. Man er i trygge hænder. Hvad der ellers ikke kunne behandles med hverken kiropraktor, medicin eller træning, fiksede han med en af sin gode maskiner (jeg havde så vidt vides Chostocondritis, inflammation mellem brystben og ribben, der forhindrede at jeg kunne strække mig og gav trykken for brystet). Desuden hjalp han også min mor i gennem en diskusprolaps og ikke kun selve diskusprolaps’en, men også de ting der kan følger med når kroppen ikke er 100% i balance, ondt i benene, infiltrationer(eller hvad det hedder😊) og gode skosåler til holdningen og når man går.Athene Vistisen
Har fået behandlinger hos MS Insight for en akut opstået muskelskade i skuldren. Har oplevet bedring fra første behandling samt stor fleksibilitet i forhold til hurtigt at få en tid med opfølgende behandlinger. Er kommet godt og hurtigt tilbage til normal funktion efter 1 måned.Charlotte Bodil Hermansen
Klar anbefaling herfra !!! 🙂 — Fik ordnet mit træthedsbrud med laser og fik mig så småt igang igen med løb — Man kan altid kontakte ham og høre om en akut tid; svarer som regel indenfor kort tid. Thumbs up !!Que Son Vu
FAQ about meniscus injuries
Cracks may occur across or along the meniscus. Injuries can occur in the thin part that lies towards the middle of the knee. It is also possible that a small piece of the meniscus can get caught between the joint surfaces during movement. The acute injury is usually caused by a strong twist in a position where the knee is bent.
Other injuries occur in the thicker part of the meniscus. A large part of the meniscus may become stuck, preventing normal knee movement (locking). Many of the injuries are typically small and can “heal” on their own. There we can advantageously speed up the process with laser therapy or shockwave as an essential complement to the rehabilitation of the knee structures.
The meniscus has previously been seen as a structure in itself which, if damaged, would simply need surgery. In recent years, a large review study from the Department of Sports and Biomechanics at the University of Southern Denmark has concluded that operative treatment is no better than targeted training for this problem – perhaps quite the opposite. If the meniscus is missing or damaged, the joint surfaces will wear more quickly, allowing osteoarthritis of the knee to develop.
With laser treatment of a meniscus injury we can go in to stimulate the following in the tissue:
- 650-nm Stimulates surface treatment
- 810-nm Stimulates and increases ATP production in cells
- 915-nm Stimulates a more efficient release of oxygen to the cells
- 980-nm Stimulates increased blood circulation
As there may be more swelling around the knee, we particularly want to increase circulation. In this way we can make some of the unwanted liquid disappear for the area. This will result in less swelling in the knee and a reduced pain. It will also provide a greater opportunity for high quality in the rehabilitation phase. The laser treatment works to stimulate the healing processes in the tissue and we can work on some of the structures that are damaged and causing the problem.
The menisci are two cartilage discs found in the knee joint. Their main function is to distribute weight so that the cartilage in the knee wears less when walking and running.
The condyles of the femur and the joint surface of the tibia in the knee do not have quite the same curvature. Therefore, the menisci go in, filling the space between the two joint surfaces. This allows the load of walking and running to be distributed over a larger area. The menisci, together with the 2 cruciate ligaments, also help to stabilise the knee and secure its position
That’s why we focus on rehabilitating your knee to the best of our knowledge.
The muscles around the knee (as well as around the hip and ankle) need to be strengthened to remove any unnecessary stress from the knee and meniscus. The quality of knee movements must be top-notch, as an unstable knee, or twisted knee, can lead to re-injury, as well as unnecessary stress on the knee and faster wear and tear of the knee.
Exercise therapy, which is the most important part of getting back to previous levels of function, gradually becomes more challenging and is stepped up to the use of a seesaw, exercise balls and various jumps, leaps and, not least, lateral shifts. In parallel, massage and laser treatment are given to optimise the recovery of the muscles and minimise the risk of relapse.
The clinic works with Secma Medical to train other therapists and practitioners in shockwave and laser treatment.
Shockwave
We offer a unique combination treatment with focused and radiating shockwave as the only one in Denmark.
We help you to have less pain and better function, safely and effectively.
