Arthritis is the most common disease in people over the age of 65, but it is not limited to old age alone. Arthritis can occur in a variety of vertebrae in the body, and there are currently about 200 different types of arthritis, most of which are chronic and affect the quality of life with ongoing pain and movement restrictions. At the QROOM Pain Clinic, we understand the consequences of the disease and its challenges, and bring you the most advanced solutions for treating arthritis, relieving pain, and improving daily functioning.
Symptoms of arthritis
Arthritis is most often manifested by feelings of pain in the inflamed joints. The nature of the pain varies between patients and can range from discomfort to restriction of movement. The pain can sometimes be worse during rest and sleep, after rest many complain of a "cushioned" feeling in the joint that improves until the next rest. Another common symptom is swelling in the inflamed joint. When the chronic inflammation spreads, it causes a feeling of fatigue and general weakness. A common symptom, which is mistakenly considered at least related, is dry eyes. Sometimes the inflammation may spread to other organs such as the lungs, heart, skin and circulatory system.
Causes of arthritis
Arthritis is classified according to its causes, with two main ones:
- Osteoarthritis (Osteoarthritis/OA) – Over the years, the cartilage in the joints wears down, and inflammation is created by the friction of the bones, which is especially common in weight-bearing joints and therefore are a focus of wear, such as the spine in the lower back, hips and knees. 80% of adults over the age of 65 are affected by this inflammation to varying degrees. The wear can result from a sedentary lifestyle, being overweight, strenuous work, advanced age, hormonal changes, congenital problems and genetics.
- Rheumatoid arthritis (Rheumatoid arthritis/RA) – affects a percentage of the population, and occurs when the immune system acts unregulated against the body's joints (autoimmune), creating inflammation that is characterized symmetrically and appears mainly in the joints of the hands. The exact causes of this self-harm of the immune system are unknown, but studies indicate an innate genetic component and an acquired effect of smoking.
Other causes can be connective tissue diseases (such as lupus), infectious diseases of the joints, or metabolic diseases such as gout, in which uric acid accumulates in the joints, leading to crystals and inflammation.
It should be noted that pain may stem from several factors together. The QROOM method is unique in that it combines innovative MEDKEY technology for treating arthritis, which begins by locating and identifying the pain points and tailoring treatment methods specifically to the problem.
Arthritis treatment methods
The treatment of arthritis depends on its diagnosis, but can be separated into drug treatment and non-drug treatment:
Drug treatment It is divided between drugs that aim to delay the development of the disease, and drugs designed to relieve symptoms, such as anti-inflammatory drugs, painkillers and intra-articular injections. In the common degenerative arthritis, for example, only drugs of the second type are available. Despite the temporary relief, long-term use of drugs increases the risk of side effects and damage to kidney and liver function, and narcotic painkillers may lead to addiction, depression and sleep disorders.
Treatment of arthritis Non-pharmacological Including recommendations for lifestyle and dietary changes, vitamin supplements, walking aids with optimal weight distribution, physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, occupational therapy and complementary medicine. In certain cases of cartilage erosion in the leg joints, they can be replaced with prosthetic joints in a surgical procedure. There are also surgeries such as arthroscopy (removal of cartilage debris) and osteotomy (cutting the bone to relieve pressure) that are beneficial for a limited period of time. Currently, innovative treatments for degenerative arthritis such as platelet injections and stem cell therapy are being tested, but there is still not enough research on their effectiveness.
A safe and revolutionary method for treating arthritis, whose effectiveness has been scientifically proven, is the QROOM method, which monitors the source of pain, provides targeted treatment without risks or side effects, and brings immediate results to improve quality of life.
The QROOM treatment method
How does the method work?
The QROOM method was developed in Germany and leverages professional knowledge from over eighty years of research to solve the problem of pain. In QROOM, treatment begins with an accurate diagnosis of the source of pain using cutting-edge technological tools. In the next step, a clinical protocol tailored to the treatment of arthritis is built by expert physiotherapists who know the secrets of pain mechanisms. During the treatment, the device is professionally used MEDKEY The groundbreaking technique that sends electrical waves into the inflamed joint tissue has a dual effect: blocking pain signals to the brain and helping to release chemicals such as epinephrine, which are considered natural painkillers. In addition, electrotherapy causes the muscles in the area to relax.
Another treatment at the pain clinic is a high-intensity (and safe) deep laser device for pain points that allows laser penetration into the internal tissues, shortens treatment time, heats the tissue and encourages blood flow. The photons interact with the cell organelles in the tissue that supports the joint and stimulate the cellular metabolism process that reduces the symptoms of pain and inflammation, without side effects.
The combination of technological tools and knowledge leads to significant pain relief, allowing the patient to move without fear and perform specific motor exercises that will benefit the area. The electrical and photonic stimulation also contributes to increasing blood flow to the treated area, which increases the transport of oxygen and nutrients to the tissue cells, thus assisting the body in the natural healing process.
Advantages of the QROOM method
Speed and efficiency: The treatment is clinically proven and lasts less than an hour, and many patients experience significant improvement after the first treatment, without the need for a long adaptation period.
Holistic treatment: At QROOM, we don't just relieve pain, but contribute to the comprehensive rehabilitation of the damaged area by increasing blood flow and encouraging tissue metabolism.
Maximum safety: The method activates the body's natural mechanisms, making it extremely safe and free of side effects. The treatment often replaces the need for surgical treatments and chronic medications, thus avoiding concerns about medical complications.
high tech: The innovative MEDKEY device learns the body's reactions in real time and adapts the treatment precisely and personally to each patient, allowing treatment even in areas with metals and orthopedic implants, which were previously off-limits.
The combination of all these benefits makes the QROOM method a leading and revolutionary solution in the field of arthritis treatment, offering new hope to many patients suffering from chronic pain and limited mobility.
