Nutrition and Joint Replacement Recovery

ACCELERATE YOUR RECOVERY

As your surgeon, my goal is to help you recover as quickly and comfortably as possible. I take a holistic approach that supports your body’s natural healing process while minimizing the need for narcotic pain medications, which can slow recovery.

I’ve seen firsthand how regenerative laser treatments, CBD supplements, and proper nutrition play a key role in reducing pain, rebuilding muscle, and accelerating healing, often reducing the need for narcotics.

To support your healing journey, I offer a range of evidence-based services designed to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and help you regain confidence as you return to your routine. My goal is to make your recovery as smooth and comfortable as possible.
