Relieving Pain. Restoring Movement

Whether you’re struggling with joint stiffness, lingering pain from a past injury, or a recent flareup that’s limiting your mobility, Westlake Sports Medicine is here to help you move better— without unnecessary surgery.

We treat active adults, weekend warriors, and patients simply looking to return to daily life without discomfort. Our approach focuses on:

  • Reducing joint and tendon pain
  • Restoring strength and range of motion
  • Supporting tissue healing at the cellular level
  • Preventing recurring injuries
  • Helping you stay active at any age

With every treatment plan, our goal is simple: resolve the root cause, relieve pain, and help you return to the life you want to live—stronger and more resilient than before.

Treatment Options

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Injections

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an advanced regenerative treatment that taps into your body’s natural healing abilities. A small sample of your blood is drawn and processed to concentrate the platelets—cells rich in growth factors that help repair damaged tissue and reduce inflammation.

When injected into injured or degenerative areas, PRP stimulates the body’s healing response, enhances tissue regeneration, and supports faster, more complete recovery.

At Westlake Sports Medicine, PRP is used as a non-surgical option to treat joint pain, tendon injuries, and soft tissue conditions—helping patients recover safely and return to the activities they love with improved function and less downtime.

Exosome Therapy

Exosome therapy represents a next-generation advancement in regenerative medicine. Exosomes are tiny, cell-derived messengers that deliver powerful biological signals to help direct the body’s healing processes at the cellular level. They play a key role in reducing inflammation, encouraging tissue repair, and supporting long-term recovery—particularly in chronic or hard-to-treat conditions.

At Westlake Sports Medicine, exosomes are used in targeted applications for joint degeneration, tendon injuries, and performance recovery, offering a non-cell-based regenerative solution personalized to your body’s needs.

Cortisone Injections

Cortisone injections are anti-inflammatory treatments that can provide fast, temporary relief from pain and swelling in joints or soft tissues. These injections are especially useful during flare-ups, helping patients participate in rehabilitation or regain movement when discomfort is limiting progress.

While effective for short-term relief, cortisone is used strategically and sparingly at Westlake Sports Medicine. Our goal is always to reduce dependence on medications and move toward long-term, restorative solutions whenever possible.

Viscosupplementation

Hyaluronic acid injections, also known as viscosupplementation, are designed to restore lubrication and cushioning within arthritic joints—most commonly the knee. This thick, gel-like substance mimics the body’s natural joint fluid, reducing friction, improving shock absorption, and enhancing mobility.

At Westlake Sports Medicine, HA injections are often used for patients with knee osteoarthritis who are looking to reduce pain, improve movement, and delay or avoid surgical intervention. It’s a low-risk option that can complement other therapies such as physical rehabilitation or regenerative treatments.

When Surgery Is the Right Choice

At Westlake Sports Medicine, we prioritize conservative, non-surgical care whenever possible. But in some cases—when pain persists, structural damage is advanced, or function remains limited despite other therapies—surgical intervention may be the most effective path forward.

While we do not perform surgery in-house, we work closely with a trusted network of orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine specialists who share our commitment to precision, innovation, and patient-centered care.

Common surgical procedures we may refer for include:

  • Arthroscopic Joint Repair (shoulder, hip, knee): Minimally invasive procedures to repair cartilage, tendons, or ligaments through small incisions.
  • Tendon or Ligament Reconstruction: For severe tears that fail to heal conservatively, such as ACL or rotator cuff injuries.
  • Joint Preservation or Replacement Surgery: For advanced arthritis that no longer responds to injections or therapy.

If surgery becomes necessary, we support you through every phase—from pre-operative planning to post-operative recovery, including rehab, regenerative therapies, and return-toactivity strategies designed to protect your long-term health and performance.

Our mission remains the same: to help you heal completely, move confidently, and return to the
life you love—stronger than before.
