Living with arthritis doesn’t mean slowing down—it means moving smarter. Regular exercise plays a key role in managing arthritis by strengthening the muscles that support your joints, improving flexibility, and reducing stiffness and pain.

Low-impact activities like walking, cycling, and water aerobics are especially beneficial. They help decrease joint inflammation and fatigue while boosting mobility and balance—lowering your risk of falls and helping you stay active and independent.

At Orthopedic Performance Institute, we’re here to help you move better, feel stronger, and get back to doing what you love. If arthritis is limiting your lifestyle, let’s change that—together.

Dealing with persistent elbow pain that just won’t go away? It might be time to explore a smarter, more targeted solution.

At Orthopedic Performance Institute, we offer TenJet, an advanced, minimally invasive treatment designed to relieve chronic conditions like golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis) when rest, therapy, and other treatments haven’t worked.

Using ultrasound guidance, TenJet precisely targets and removes damaged tendon tissue with a high-velocity saline stream—helping preserve healthy tissue while addressing the root cause of your pain.

TenJet is:
- Quick outpatient procedure (often ~15 minutes)
- Performed under local anesthesia
- Minimal incision, minimal downtime
- Faster return to the activities you love

TenJet is also highly effective for:
• Tennis elbow
• Jumper’s knee
• Plantar fasciitis
• Achilles tendinosis
• And other chronic tendon conditions

If you’ve been dealing with pain for 3–6 months or longer and haven’t found relief, TenJet could be the next step toward getting you back in the game.

Contact Orthopedic Performance Institute to schedule your consultation and learn if TenJet is right for you.

Happy Earth Day from Orthopedic Performance Institute!

There’s no better way to celebrate than by getting outside and moving your body. Whether it’s a walk on a local trail, a jog through the park, or simply stepping outside to enjoy some fresh air—your joints and muscles will thank you.

And don’t let a little rain stop you! A light drizzle can make your time outdoors even more refreshing (just be mindful of slippery surfaces). Staying active, even in less-than-perfect weather, helps keep your body strong, flexible, and ready for whatever adventures come next.

At Orthopedic Performance Institute, we’re here to keep you moving—on Earth Day and every day.

Get outside. Stay active. Take care of your body.

Shoulder replacement surgery—also known as shoulder arthroplasty—is an increasingly common and highly effective procedure for relieving pain and helping patients get back to the activities they enjoy. In fact, outcomes today are comparable to hip and knee replacements when it comes to reducing pain and improving function.

Common conditions that may lead to shoulder replacement include:
• Osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear arthritis)
• Rotator cuff injuries
• Severe fractures or poorly healed injuries
• Rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory conditions
• Osteonecrosis (loss of blood supply to the bone)

At Orthopedic Performance Institute, our specialists are dedicated to helping you move better, feel stronger, and live without limits. If shoulder pain is holding you back, we’re here to help you explore the right treatment options for your lifestyle.

Schedule a consultation today and take the first step toward lasting relief.
