Larisa N Likver, MD

Larisa N Likver, MD • Diplomate of American Board of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation
• Credentialed by Academy of Dr. Larisa Likver is also trained in Neural Prolotherapy.

Dr. Larisa Likver is a board-certified physiatrist who has over 20 years of medical experience, specifically pain management, both in New York City and internationally. She has been trained in Prolotherapy by the Hackett-Hemwall Foundation, the leading institution for Prolotherapy education and research, named after the two pioneers who invented and developed this technique in the United States. For over 35 years, the Hackett-Hemwall foundation has hosted a medical missionary trip to Honduras. Dr. Larisa Likver has advanced her expertise in Prolotherapy by participating in this missions in 2014 and 2015, dedicating her time and service to treat people who are otherwise unable to afford medical care. This treatment was created by the New Zealand physician Dr. John Lyftgoft. Dr. Likver attended some of the few global conferences in Neural Prolotherapy to obtain training from Dr. Lyftogt himself. In 2013, Dr. Likver participated in the most comprehensive global conference for Neural Prolotherapy held in Guadelajara, Mexico. Dr. Likver is recognized as a Pioneer by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography. Certification in Musculoskeletal Sonography was first introduced to medical professionals in 2012. Dr. Likver successfully passed this new exam and was among the first to be awarded a Pioneer Certificate. She has nearly 10 years of experience using ultrasound guidance to dramatically improve the outcome of pain-alleviating procedures (Platelets-Rich Plasma or PRP treatment, Prolotherapy, joint visco-supplementation, etc.) through direct and targeted injections. By visualizing the pain-affected area in real-time, Dr. Likver delivers medication precisely where it needs to go.

As temperatures drop, many patients notice their pain and stiffness increase. One often-overlooked reason is the role of the fascia—the connective tissue that surrounds and supports muscles, nerves, and organs. Fascia can become restricted due to inflammation, injury, or even reduced activity during colder months, which leads to tightness, pain, and impaired mobility.

Ultrasound-guided fascia hydrodissection is an innovative treatment offered by Dr. Likver that targets these restrictions by gently separating fascial layers and restoring glide between tissues. By improving circulation, nerve function, and tissue mobility, hydrodissection often provides relief from conditions beyond musculoskeletal pain, including nerve entrapments and chronic, unexplained discomfort.

Releasing fascial restrictions is not just about pain relief; it’s about restoring proper nerve, muscle, and vascular function—like “resetting” the system. Each treatment builds upon the last, giving the body the opportunity to heal, regenerate, and function more optimally. Long-lasting improvement often comes from patience, consistency, and a commitment to treating the underlying cause, not just the symptom.

While some patients may enjoy immediate relief, others find lasting improvement after several sessions. To explore fascial hydrodissection and find a treatment plan that works for your pain, visit https://www.drlikver.com to book a consultation with Dr. Likver, today.

Too often, pain is treated as a surface-level symptom, with medications that only provide temporary relief. But lasting results come from identifying and addressing root causes. Fascial restrictions, nerve entrapments, or joint instability may be at the center of ongoing discomfort.

By using advanced techniques like ultrasound-guided diagnostics, fascia hydrodissection, prolotherapy, and PRP, Dr. Likver uncovers the deeper source of your pain and restores lasting function. The goal is not just pain relief, but long-term healing.

As the weather cools, many patients schedule elective procedures during the fall to recover before winter and the busy holiday season. While surgery may correct structural issues, the post-operative period is just as important for long-term outcomes. Without proper rehabilitation, patients risk developing scar tissue, adhesions, or fascial restrictions that can limit function and cause chronic pain.

Understand the importance of post-surgical tissue mobilization, physical therapy guidance, and regenerative injections (such as prolotherapy, PRP, or fascia hydrodissection) to support recovery. By combining surgical correction with thoughtful rehabilitation like that offered at Dr. Likver's office, patients often return to mobility faster and with better long-term results.

The fascia doesn’t just connect muscles and joints—it also influences the autonomic nervous system. Fascial restrictions can irritate nerves, creating not only physical pain but also heightened stress responses. This explains why some patients feel both physically and emotionally better after fascial treatments.

By addressing fascia through hydrodissection, you aren’t just treating “aches and pains”, you’re supporting a whole-body reset that includes both physical mobility and emotional resilience.

One of the most reassuring aspects of fascia hydrodissection is its safety profile. The treatment employs ultrasound guidance to carefully inject small amounts of solution into the fascial layer, separating restricted tissue planes, reducing irritation, and restoring function.

Severe side effects are extraordinarily uncommon. For most patients who choose fascial hydrodissection, the benefits of improved mobility and reduced pain far outweigh its minimal risks.

Sometimes, patients report unexpected pain or unusual symptoms after surgery or invasive medical procedures. While concerning, this response is not uncommon. The body is a highly integrated system, and the fascia often reacts to surgical trauma, injections, or even scar formation by tightening or binding down. This fascial restriction can compress nerves, irritate tissues, and create pain in areas seemingly unrelated to the original procedure.

Fascia hydrodissection offers a solution by freeing up restricted tissue planes, reducing irritation, and allowing the body to restore normal movement patterns. Learn about this treatment at Dr. Likver's office and discover if it's right for you by visiting https://www.drlikver.com today.

With summer behind us and routines settling in, September is an ideal time to focus on self-improvement, both physically and mentally. For many, that means addressing nagging pain, post-surgical recovery, or unexplained symptoms that limit quality of life.

Integrative regenerative medicine, like fascia-focused treatments and nerve hydrodissection, helps patients not only manage pain but also improve overall function. True self-improvement comes from aligning body, mind, and movement, and Dr. Likver offers treatment modalities to help.

The human body is interconnected in ways that may surprise you. Fascia (a continuous web of connective tissue that surrounds muscles, organs, nerves, and vessels) plays a critical role in pain and function. When fascia becomes restricted or inflamed, it can create pain patterns that extend far beyond the original site of injury.

At Dr. Likver's practice, ultrasound-guided fascia hydrodissection precisely targets these restrictions, restoring mobility and reducing pain. This technique has shown effectiveness not only in musculoskeletal pain but also in conditions like post-surgical nerve entrapment, unexplained abdominal pain, and even tension-related headaches.

By carefully releasing fascial adhesions with precision-guided injections, patients often experience surprising relief, even when other treatments have failed. The key lies in addressing the root cause rather than simply masking symptoms.
