A young man had suffered with right hip pain for two months prior to treatment at the Clinic. He was struggling considerably with normal activities and walking and was unable to run about with his children. He was initially told of 'soft tissue damage' but Brian was not happy with this and requested further investigation. MRI scans confirmed more serious damage, showing avascular necrosis (dying off) of the head of femur due to a compromised blood supply (the whiter area on MRI). Avascular necrosis of the head of femur can often result in early hip replacement.

Immediately following the diagnosis, we began treatment with pulsed electromagnetic field therapy and interferential therapy in order to create a new blood supply and prevent further dying off of the femoral head. After the first of these treatments, the young man felt 75% better.

The young man was virtually pain free and able to walk normally after 5 sessions of MFT and interferential therapy. He continued to progress over the next 6 weeks and final MRI scans at this stage showed 'significant' improvement and revascularisation of the femoral head (the previous whiter area now looking much more like the left side). He is now back to normal activity.

The Patient writes: "My first visit to the clinic and Brian immediately diagnosed my injury as a hip problem. Brian advised that I should have blood tests and an MRI scan which confirmed his diagnosis that I had avascular necrosis of the right femoral head. I cannot express my gratitude highly enough to Brian and his team for their professional treatment, positive encouragement, and dedicated support.
