Cryotherapy for Pain Management
Cold Therapy for Quick Recovery
Cryotherapy uses precise cold temperatures to reduce inflammation, swelling, and pain in joints and soft tissues. It’s especially helpful post-injury or post-exercise for athletes or those with chronic joint pain.

Thrombo Joint Injections
Accelerated Healing with Your Body’s Own Platelets
Thrombo injections—also known as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections—are an innovative, minimally invasive treatment that uses a patient’s own blood components to support healing in injured joints, tendons, and ligaments. The therapy isolates and concentrates platelets, also known as thrombocytes, which play a key role in tissue repair and regeneration.
These platelets are suspended in plasma, the golden liquid portion of the blood that carries red and white blood cells throughout the body. When injected into the affected area, this powerful platelet-rich solution can trigger a natural healing response—reducing inflammation, easing pain, and encouraging faster recovery.
- Best For: Chronic joint pain, ligament or tendon damage, inflammation
- Procedure Time: ~30 minutes
- Downtime: Mild soreness for 24–48 hours
- Treatment Plan: Typically 1–3 injections spaced several weeks apart
- Results: Gradual improvement over several weeks as tissues regenerate

It offers an excellent alternative to steroid injections for patients seeking gentle, effective joint and nerve pain relief with minimal risk of side effects.
Best For: Joint inflammation, nerve-related pain, arthritis, sciatica, shoulder or hip pain
Procedure Time: ~15–30 minutes
Downtime: None; normal activity can resume same day

Yes! Most treatments use your body’s own healing factors or safe, medical-grade compounds like ozone or hyaluronic acid. All services are performed under the supervision of Dr. Robert Berberian, MD, a Bergen County Top Doctor.
Downtime is minimal to none for most patients. You may experience mild swelling, soreness, or stiffness at the injection site, which typically resolves within a day or two. You can usually return to light activities right away.
The duration of results can vary, typically lasting several months. Maintenance treatments are recommended to preserve the benefits.
Discomfort is typically minimal. A topical numbing agent or local anesthetic is often applied to improve comfort. Most patients tolerate the injections well and report only mild pressure or sensitivity.
This depends on the treatment type and severity of the condition. Some patients feel relief within a few days, while regenerative treatments like PRP or ozone may take a few weeks to show their full benefits as healing progresses.
Dr. Berberian will assess your condition and goals to determine the best plan. Some patients benefit from a single therapy, while others may receive a custom combination of treatments for optimal results.
