It is injected by a doctor trained in the specific technique. It is a soft tissue adapted biocompatible hyaluronic acid (STABHA) is the innovative active ingredient. It is the only Health Canada-approved hyaluronic acid indicated to relieve pain and restore function in damaged tendons and ligaments.

It has been approved for the use of chronic tennis elbows (lateral epicondylitis) and acute ankle sprains.

This is administered under ultrasound in clinic. It consists of 2 injections performed 1 week apart. For ankle sprains, the injection must be performed within 1-2 weeks following injury.
