Weight Loss Support at Interventional Orthopedics of Washington

Losing weight isn’t just about appearance. It’s about reducing pain, improving mobility, and living with less discomfort every day. At Interventional Orthopedics of Washington (IOW), we help you take a more complete approach. Our goal is to support your weight loss journey by improving how your body moves and feels.

We focus on treatments that reduce joint pain, improve function, and support your overall health so staying active and losing weight becomes more manageable.

Understanding the Impact of Excess Weight

Excess weight puts added stress on your joints especially your knees, hips, and lower back. Over time, this pressure can lead to joint damage and chronic conditions like osteoarthritis. It can also limit your ability to stay active, which makes weight loss harder.

Reducing your weight helps relieve pressure on your joints. It can lower inflammation, improve how you move, and reduce pain. These small changes make it easier to stay consistent with exercise and daily activity.

How Interventional Orthopedics of Washington Can Help

We take a medical approach to weight loss by focusing on what makes movement difficult. Pain, stiffness, limited joint function, and treating those issues directly. Here's how we do it:

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

PRP uses your body’s own healing cells to reduce inflammation and support tissue repair. By improving joint health, PRP can help you move more comfortably, which supports long-term weight loss.

Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapy promotes tissue healing and reduces inflammation. For patients with joint damage or limited mobility, this treatment may help restore movement and reduce the need for surgery or medications.

Nutritional Counseling

We provide individualized guidance to help you build better eating habits. It’s not about quick fixes, it’s about sustainable nutrition that fits your life and supports your weight goals.

Lifestyle Support

We also address factors like sleep, stress, and physical activity. These areas often affect weight more than people realize. We also have a list of great trainers to refer to and some are familiar with unique medical needs. Our goal is to help you build a healthier routine and not just treat symptoms.

Benefits of Combining Orthopedic Treatment with Weight Loss

When you treat joint pain and work on weight loss at the same time, it creates a cycle that helps you move forward:

• Less joint pain makes movement easier.

• More movement supports weight loss.

• Weight loss reduces joint pressure.

• Reduced pressure leads to even less pain.

This combined approach helps you avoid long-term medications, reduce the need for surgery, and feel better every day.

A Personalized Plan for You

No two patients are alike. We consider your medical history, lifestyle, and goals before making any recommendations. Whether you’re trying to lose a few pounds to ease knee pain, or you’re managing a chronic joint condition, we’ll help you find the best next step.
