Following nSTRIDE® APS treatment, patients may encounter localised pain and swelling at the injection site, typically resolving within 24-48 hours. There are no enduring side effects associated with the procedure; however, it’s advisable to have someone accompany you on the day of treatment.
Within 4-5 days post-treatment, a slight reduction in swelling, stiffness, and pain can be anticipated. While some individuals may experience diminished knee discomfort within 1-2 weeks, most patients typically notice pain relief between 4-8 weeks following the procedure.

For optimal recovery, it’s recommended to limit activity levels for 14 days post-treatment.

January 24, 2023 - Emma B | Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar Fasciitis treatment, 6 sessions. Gary was amazing, he explained everything really well, both what he was doing during the treatments and what exercises I needed to do at home. I have struggled with plantar fasciitis for 18 months and it feels so much better, following my 6 sessions, I am back walking again several times a week, which is so exciting as I have really missed this. Both my dogs and I say “thank you”.
