What Is Iovera Treatment?
DFW Sports Medicine delivers care that is personal, focused, and designed to address your chronic pain and help you feel better faster. Iovera treatment is a nonsurgical pain therapy that uses cold to block nerve signals that cause pain. Known as cryoneurolysis treatment, Iovera is often used to manage discomfort before or after surgery or to address long-standing joint pain. The most common use is for knee pain treatment, especially for people living with arthritis or preparing for knee surgery. It's also useful for other types of chronic pain that don't respond well to other therapies. Iovera pain relief targets the affected nerves directly without relying on opioids or permanent changes to your body. Many people choose Iovera for chronic pain because it provides fast and precise relief that fits into an active lifestyle. To explore how this treatment can support your recovery, schedule a consultation with our team in McKinney, Frisco, or Lewisville, TX.
How Does Iovera Treatment Work for Knee Pain?
Our approach to nonsurgical treatments begins with a full evaluation of your pain, movement, and goals. From there, we build a care plan that may include Iovera therapy as part of a broader program for joint pain relief and recovery. During the procedure, a specialist performs an Iovera injection using a small handheld device. The device targets specific nerves with a precise cold dose, interrupting the nerve signal that sends pain messages to the brain. The nerve is not removed or destroyed; it simply "pauses" pain transmission for several months. Patients are awake and comfortable during the session. No incisions or sedation are needed. Most people feel relief within minutes, and full effects occur over a few days. Iovera cryoneurolysis for joint pain relief is a clean, fast, and focused method to help you stay active and avoid extended downtime.
What Are the Benefits of Iovera Treatment for Chronic Pain?
Living with long-term knee pain affects more than just movement. It makes everyday tasks harder and slows down recovery. Iovera treatment provides fast, effective, and targeted relief without surgery or ongoing medications. The benefits of Iovera therapy include:
- Reduced reliance on opioids and other medications
- Immediate improvement in joint comfort and mobility
- Fast return to daily activity or physical therapy programs
- Supports pre- and post-surgical recovery goals
- Minimally invasive with no downtime or scarring
- Repeatable treatment with consistent results
- Complements other non-opioid pain management strategies
