Advanced Osteoarthritis Treatment in Bangalore

Root-cause, non-surgical therapies for lasting joint relief

Understanding Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis (OA), also sometimes called degenerative arthritis or degenerative joint disease, is a chronic joint condition that can affect joints in the neck, lower back, hips, knees, thumb bases, small finger joints, and large toes. Doctors say, “India may become the osteoarthritis capital of the world with over 60 million cases of the disease by 2025.”

At Clinic Living Plus in Bangalore, our treatment goes much beyond recommending painkillers and performing surgeries. Our treatment approach combines regenerative therapies, effective medications, and lifestyle changes, tailored to each patient’s concerns, to give you relief from the disorder.

Rising Cases in Bangalore

Bangalore has been witnessing a significant rise in osteoarthritis cases. According to a study, the prevalence of knee osteoarthritis in Bangalore is expected to be 26.6% among individuals over 40 years old with a history of consistent knee issues.

Our Root-Cause Approach

At Clinic Living Plus, our expert team performs functional medicine assessments and laboratory testing to identify and treat the causes of inflammation, hormone levels, and nutritional deficiencies.

Once our experts identify the individual symptoms of OA, we personalize the treatment plan to control the pain, increase mobility, and improve long-term joint health.

Why Osteoarthritis Cases Are Rising in Bangalore

Bangalore's urban lifestyle contributing to rising OA cases

Bangalore has been witnessing a significant rise in osteoarthritis cases. A variety of factors, such as aging, an increase in obesity, and lifestyle recommendations, are contributing to the rising osteoarthritis cases in this city. The degenerative joint disease, which was considered to be common among the elderly has started affecting more young people.

Sedentary Lifestyle
The work culture in Bangalore is mostly about the corporate and IT sectors that require employees to sit for hours. Their poor diet habits and lack of physical activity have increased obesity. Dr. Nitin Vadlamudi, an orthopedician, has said that joint replacement surgeries have risen with more patients opting for treatment because of increased awareness.

 

Obesity puts high pressure on the joints, taking weight, mainly the hips and knees, which triggers cartilage degeneration. Doctors have said that obesity is a key risk factor for osteoarthritis in India.

 

Working out is always good for health. However, many people perform exercises in an imperfect form that may cause joint injuries and thereby osteoarthritis.

 

Sitting in the wrong positions for hours in front of a mobile phone or computer may strain the joints in the knees, back, and neck.

 

In Bangalore’s colder times, people develop stiffness and pain in joints. The temperature drop may cause vasoconstriction, which decreases blood flow to joints and increases their stiffness.

 

The consistent use of Indian-style toilets adds high pressure to the knee joints. Such a habit can trigger the condition and joint damage for people with early-stage OA genetic disposition.

Why Conventional Treatments Often Fail

Conventional treatments often fail to treat osteoarthritis as they focus on symptom management rather than addressing the underlying causes and complex mechanisms of the disease.

 

That's why we take a different approach at Clinic Living Plus - focusing on root causes and regenerative healing.

Our Root-Cause, Non-Surgical Approach

At Clinic Living Plus in Bangalore, our expert team performs functional medicine assessments and laboratory testing to identify and treat the causes of inflammation, hormone levels, and nutritional deficiencies.

Once our experts identify the individual symptoms of OA, we personalize the treatment plan to control the pain, increase mobility, and improve long-term joint health.

Ozone Therapy

How it Works

Ozone therapy passes oxygen and circulates blood to tissues. Such an increased oxygenation may heal tissues, repair, and regenerate cartilage that gets damaged in OA. This therapy can control pain and boost short-term functionalities in patients having knee OA.

 

2025 Supporting Studies/Statistics

Clinical studies have shown pain reduction (estimated by VAS/WOMAC) and joint function improvement. Certain studies have shown positive results in controlling pain and boosting osteoarthritic joint functionalities, mainly the knees, as compared to placebo and other treatments.

 
 

How it Works

PRP/GFC therapy can cure OA by utilising a patient’s concentrated blood products to control inflammation, repair, and regenerate tissues in the joint. The released platelet’s growth factors proliferate chondrocytes, promote collagen synthesis and tissue remodelling.

 
 

2025 Supporting Studies/Statistics

PRP works for patients having mild to moderate OA (Kellgren-Lawrence grades I-III). Clinical studies related to GFC for knee OA show high improvements in function (WOMAC scores) and pain (VAS scores) that can last for approximately 1 year.

 
 
 

How it Works

Peptide therapy can treat the inherent causes of OA rather than only controlling symptoms. Peptides target certain biological routes to repair and regenerate tissues, and create a more balanced joint setup. Certain peptides, like BPC-157, can heal wounds and protect tissues and organs.

 
 
 

2025 Supporting Studies/Statistics

A published trial in September 2025 shows that everyday supplementation with 3000mg LMCP for 6 months was effective in relieving joint pain. 87.5% of surveyed patients who got BPC-157 injections for knee pain with chronic OA achieved success.

 
 
 

How it Works

IV nutrition therapy delivers antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins in the bloodstream that can control inflammation, improve joint health, and relieve the oxidative stress caused by OA. The quick absorption of such nutrients relieves pain, increases energy, and boosts overall health.

 
 
 

2025 Supporting Studies/Statistics

IV nutrition therapy works for osteoarthritis. However, sufficient evidence isn’t available to prove its wide usage as a proven/primary treatment. The available reports are from small or highly anecdotal studies and reports. Consult our experts to personalize IV nutrition therapy treatment plans for OA.

 
 
 

How it Works

Infrared sauna can treat OA by increasing blood circulation with heat that passes nutrients and oxygen to tissues, controls swelling, and removes waste from the body. The heat increases collagen elasticity, which may relax muscles near stiff joints and increase mobility.

 
 
 

2025 Supporting Studies/Statistics

A pilot study showed that a 4-week treatment plan with infrared sauna sessions twice a week can largely decrease joint stiffness and pain. The results were seen during and after the treatment. As per research, infrared sauna therapy can help in reducing fatigue in patients having AS and RA.

 
 
 

How it Works

BHRT can treat OA by giving a patient’s body hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen, with anti-inflammatory properties. They can control pain and boost joint functionality. Estrogen may protect cartilage and produce more joint lubricants.

 
 
 

2025 Supporting Studies/Statistics

The recent reports say that a one-size-fits-all approach to treatment may not work for OA. The treatment is getting personalized considering a patient’s unique biomechanical, hormonal, and metabolic factors. BHRT is considered to be a possible personalized treatment.

 
 
 

Lifestyle & Long-Term Management

You can effectively manage osteoarthritis, a chronic disorder with certain lifestyle and long-term management strategies. Here are the evidence-based tips to manage this disease:

Follow an Anti-Inflammatory and Plant-Forward Diet
Proper nutrition can always help in managing OA. An anti-inflammatory and plant-forward diet is recommended to control OA symptoms as it can decrease inflammation, promote joint strength, and healthy body weight. A Mediterranean diet, including anti-inflammatory foods, can always work for OA since it is rich in fiber and healthy fats, which help in weight management. OA patients should include citrus fruits, cruciferous vegetables, fatty fish, nuts, seeds, beans, whole grains, herbs, spices, dairy, and green tea in their diet. They should avoid having extra sugars, certain fats, refined carbohydrates, red meats, and highly processed foods.

 

Physiotherapy can help in managing OA by controlling pain, boosting joint mobility, and improving overall life via customized exercise programs, patient education, and manual therapies. The therapists implement techniques such as cold/heat therapy, hydrotherapy, aerobic training, and supporting the affected joints. Exercise can always be an effective OA treatment, regardless of age, since it reduces stiffness and pain, and increases muscle strength. With the right balance of low-impact aerobic exercise, range-of-motion, stretching, strength training, and balance training, OA can be managed without putting excess stress on the joints.

 

 

Relieving stress helps in controlling pain caused due to OA and improves overall health. Meditation and mindfulness are practices that strengthen the connection between mind and body. Even though such activities can’t cure OA’s physical damage, they can help in controlling chronic pain and emotional upheaval. Infrared saunas can directly heat the body with light. As the heat penetrates deeper into the tissues, it helps OA patients by relieving pain, reducing stiffness, increasing mobility, and controlling inflammation.

 

 

Ayurveda, the traditional Indian medicine system, considers OA as a condition mainly caused due to Vata dosha imbalance that is related to movement and Shleshaka Kapha depletion. Ayurvedic OA treatment follows a holistic approach by combining therapies, such as herbal remedies and dietary recommendations, to control symptoms. Ayurvedic herbs can control inflammation, balance doshas, and boost joint health. Ayurvedic diet can also help in managing OA since it balances the Vata dosha and eases digestion to prevent Ama formation.

 

 

 

The right medication can always help in managing osteoarthritis. OTC pain relievers, such as NSAIDs or acetaminophen can help in managing inflammation and pain. Topical NSAID gels can treat joints near the skin, such as hands and knees. Since osteoarthritis is a long-term disorder, consistent healthcare with experts is crucial as they can control symptoms, and modify treatment plans accordingly. A doctor can suggest medications and injections if OTC options don’t work. The experts can teach the best joint-protection techniques and suggest using the right assistive devices.

 

 

 

Patient Success Story

Mrs. Ayesha Singh (68) had been suffering from severe bilateral knee OA for over 10 years. The pain caused due to advanced OA in both knees had significantly worsened and restricted her mobility so much that she couldn’t even walk.

After trying different non-surgical treatments, such as medication and physical therapy, she got temporary relief. Then, she opted for our comprehensive regenerative treatment approach, which gave her long-term relief.

Before Treatment

Pain: 10/10 when moving Knee flexion: ~60 degrees Mobility: Severely limited
