What We Do
At Al Biraa it’s not just about arthritis and its treatment. We follow a human approach as we believe that every individual comes with his or her own set of problems, difficulties and aspirations. This is why we provide all primary and supplementary treatment facilities to lessen and remove your pain.
As you may already know there are more than 100 varieties of arthritic and joint pains and our world-class doctors, physicians and health care professionals have a massive experience of many years. A successful treatment and rehabilitation procedure can only be implemented if you can correctly pinpoint the exact ailment. In fact many unsuccessful treatments can be attributed to inaccurate diagnosis. So correct diagnosis is as critical as treatment.
But we not only diagnose and treat, we also understand the pains and emotional as well as physical hardships you have to go through while dealing with arthritic and joint pains. That’s why we try to give you an experience that makes you feel totally at home while spiritual as well as physical improvement begins to manifest.

The actual list of ailments that we can diagnose and treat is much longer but these are a few of the primary joint and bone related problems faced by most people. In most of the cases the patients are not aware of the exact name of the problem they face, but in case you have already been diagnosed and you know the name of your ailment and in case the name does not appear in our list please don’t assume that we haven’t got the treatment for you. Please do fix up an appointment with our consultant and we are sure we can help you get rid of your pain.
Some of the standard procedures that we follow to alleviate your pain are joint injections (Anti-inflammatory, viscosupplementation (joint lubrication)) and trigger point injections. Joint injections are given for joint inflammation conditions These conditions may occur due to internal or external injuries. The painless and easy procedure injects anti-inflammatory agents into the exact trouble spots. Trigger point injections are normally given for muscle and soft tissue pain. They remove the knots when the muscles cannot relax on their own.
In all treatments involving arthritic, joint and bone related medical procedures go on parallel to medicinal as well as physical therapies. We also provide infusion therapies such as biological injections.
It is a misconception that arthritic, rheumatoid, and joint pains manifest during or around old-age. This is not true. You may come face-to-face with these constraining problems even at a younger age. Wear and tear, and muscle and joint injuries can take place even at a younger age. Unfortunately, at a younger age people keep ignoring these problems thinking that it is something minor and will go away sooner or later. These problems get worse if they are not taken care of in time by qualified professionals.
Another misconception is that if you have developed arthritis the situation is hopeless. Although there is no cure for arthritis (because your bones or cartilages get damaged) that the condition can be easily controlled and you can slow down or even stop further damage by proper care, treatment and lifestyle changes. In fact if your problem is diagnosed at an early stage you don’t even need to go through with elaborate procedures and lifestyle changes.
So do drop in, in case you think you have a pain that needs medical attention. Even if you think it is not serious do get it checked to be on the safer side. Prevention, as they say, is always better than the cure.
