Hyaluronic acid Injections in Eyemouth
Gentle relief for osteoarthritis and stiff, painful joints
If joint pain is starting to affect how you walk, work or sleep, Hyaluronic acid injections may help you move more freely again.
Leanne now offers hyaluronic acid injections in Eyemouth as part of her physiotherapy service. These arthritis injections are designed to reduce pain, improve movement and support joints affected by osteoarthritis.
Treatment is delivered here in clinic and works particularly well alongside hands-on physiotherapy and tailored exercise.
What are hyaluronic injections?
Hyaluronic acid naturally cushions and lubricates healthy joints. With osteoarthritis, this fluid becomes thinner and less effective, which can lead to stiffness, swelling and discomfort.
Hyaluronic acid injections can be used in many joints, including:
knees
shoulders
ankles
elbows
wrists
thumbs
big toes
Hyaluronic acid injections are recognised as a treatment option by organisations such as Versus Arthritis.
How can hyaluronic acid injections help?
Many people seek this treatment for:
knee arthritis
ongoing joint stiffness
aching or swollen joints
reduced mobility
pain that has not settled with physiotherapy alone
Following treatment, you may notice:
reduced pain
easier, more comfortable movement
less stiffness
improved day to day function
longer-lasting symptom relief
Improvements usually build gradually over several weeks.
Your treatment options
Your treatment plan is always tailored following assessment.
Plus
Designed for osteoarthritis in larger joints such as the knee, hip, shoulder or ankle. Contains a higher concentration of hyaluronic acid for longer-lasting relief. Helps reduce stiffness, improve lubrication and ease pain.
Tendon
Formulated for tendon-related conditions such as tendinopathy. Helps restore normal sliding movement between the tendon and surrounding tissues, reducing pain and improving function without the use of corticosteroids.
Mini
Designed for smaller joints such as fingers, thumbs and toes. Provides cushioning and lubrication to improve comfort and movement in small joint osteoarthritis. Minimally invasive with quick recovery.
Leanne will guide you on which option is most suitable for your joint and lifestyle.
“I cannot recommend Leanne more highly. Not only did she deliver a painless injection but the pain relief in my arthritic knee was almost immediate. I am more comfortable and more active than I have been for a quite some time.

Had the hyaluronic acid injection two months ago and within two weeks the joints were miles better and continue to be fantastic. I didn't find it that sore to have done and if it does wear off I'll be back for more.
