Precision Pain Relief: Ultrasound-Guided Steroid Injections in Peterborough

At our Peterborough clinic, we offer advanced Ultrasound-Guided Injections to treat pain with greater precision.

Traditional injections often rely on surface landmarks and clinician feel (sometimes called ‘blind’ injections). With ultrasound guidance, our specialists can see inside the joint in real time, allowing them to accurately target the exact source of inflammation.

Why Ultrasound-Guided is the Gold Standard

Superior Accuracy: Ultrasound guidance allows medication to be delivered precisely to the affected area, improving the effectiveness of treatment.

Increased Safety: By visualising surrounding nerves, tendons, and blood vessels, we can avoid sensitive structures and reduce the risk of complications.

More Effective Relief: Accurate placement can lead to better pain relief and help you return to daily activities sooner.

What to Expect: Your ‘One-Stop’ Appointment

We know your time is valuable. Our Ultrasound-Guided Injection service in Peterborough is designed to provide a smooth and efficient experience, often completed in a single visit.

  1. Clinical Assessment: Your appointment begins with a thorough assessment by one of our specialists to review your symptoms and confirm the most appropriate treatment.

  2. Diagnostic Ultrasound Scan: We use ultrasound imaging to examine the joint or soft tissue in detail and identify the precise location of the problem.

  3. The Procedure: The area is cleaned carefully, and a local anaesthetic may be used if appropriate. Using real-time ultrasound guidance, the specialist guides the needle accurately to the target area to deliver the medication.

  4. Aftercare & Reporting: You’ll receive clear aftercare advice before leaving the clinic. We also provide a written report for you and your GP to ensure continuity of care.

Our Most Asked Questions

Here are some of the most common questions we receive about steroid injections at Total Health Clinics. If you have any further questions about steroid injections or whether treatment is right for you, please don’t hesitate to contact our team directly.

No. At Total Health Clinics, you can book directly with us. There is no referral required, providing you with faster access to pain relief and helping you avoid lengthy NHS waiting lists.

  • Corticosteroid Injections: Powerful anti-inflammatories for fast-acting pain relief.
  • Hyaluronic Acid (Ostenil Plus): Acts as a lubricant for joints, specifically designed to improve movement in arthritic conditions.
  • Steroid Injections: Most patients notice a significant reduction in pain within 48–72 hours.
  • Hyaluronic Acid: Improvements in joint lubrication usually develop over 1–2 weeks.

Results vary by individual, but steroid injections typically provide 3–6 months of relief, while Hyaluronic acid can last between 6–12 months.

The procedure is generally very well tolerated. Because we use ultrasound guidance, we minimize tissue disruption. You may feel a brief sting from the local anaesthetic, similar to a small pinprick.

Yes. For safety and specialist care, we do not perform injections around the lumbar spine (lower back) or neck. These require different imaging techniques (like X-ray/Fluoroscopy) and are best managed by spinal consultants.

We offer a transparent, all-inclusive price of £257. This covers your consultation, diagnostic ultrasound scan, and the guided injection itself—saving you the cost of multiple separate appointments.

Lewis has been helping me with a shoulder problem and movement is improving. He is very knowledgeable, pleasant and as keen as myself to see the end of my pain. Highly recommended. July 2026 Still occasionally dropping in to see the good folk at Total Health. Lewis has been a brilliant help with my lower back problem and I now only visit for a tuneup, usually before an intense golf weekend. A really friendly and helpful practice, that has helped me over the last few years.

I have been treated by John for bursitis in my shoulder. On my first visit he did a through consultation and decided a steroid injection was required. John has a calm and friendly manner and was very gentle and reassuring administering the injection. I have since been twice for a follow up and manipulation of the shoulder. John has a knack of using distraction techniques to enable me to relax. I have seen a significant improvement in both mobility and pain assisted by the exercises recommended to do between visits. I would highly recommend John and indeed the staff on reception who are very friendly and welcoming.
Very good, very friendly and professional. Would recommend!
