Protective cartilage therapy | Protective joint therapy in Berlin-Frohnau

Advantages of the method

The articular cartilage protection therapy is based on a biological therapeutic principle that improves the buffer and lubricating function of the articular cartilage. The targeted supply of biological building blocks of the cartilage ground substance directly addresses the cause of cartilage damage and the development of osteoarthritis. This is currently considered to be the most effective therapeutic option, directly promoting the regeneration and protection of cartilage.

Why is joint cartilage so important?

All joint surfaces are covered by a protective layer of cartilage. This cartilage performs two essential functions:

• Protecting the underlying bone from mechanical overload through its shock-absorbing properties.
• Reducing friction to allow smooth movement.
• Consequences of cartilage damage
• Damage to the cartilage surface leads to progressive abrasion, which in the long term impairs the protective function. Without timely treatment, this can ultimately lead to complete destruction of the joint (osteoarthritis).

The method offers a sustainable solution for restoring and maintaining joint function.

Healthy joints – the key is in the cartilage

The functionality and resilience of a joint are directly dependent on the health of its cartilage. Thanks to modern treatment methods, wear-related complaints, especially in large joints such as the hip, knee or ankle, can now be treated much more effectively. These advances are based on new molecular biological findings and innovative biotechnologies.

Hyaluronic acid – a natural building block for healthy joints

Hyaluronic acid is an essential component of the cartilage matrix. Together with collagen fibers, it ensures the strength, elasticity and low frictional resistance of cartilage.
