Pain Management Doctors in Los Gatos
Chronic pain affects far more than physical comfort. Daily movement, work performance, and overall energy often decline as pain persists.
Most people try standard care first, including rest, ice, medications, or “hacks” they’ve seen on social media. These approaches can offer short-term relief, but symptoms often return.
In many cases, this happens because the damaged tissue never fully heals. Joints, ligaments, and tendons have poor blood supply, and chronic pain in these areas is often due to the resulting lack of oxygen and repair.
To target your pain at its root, we use advanced therapies such as:
- Regenerative Injections – Prolozone, PRP, stem cells, exosomes, hyaluronic acid, and peptides.
- Oxygen-Based Therapies – Medical ozone and FDA-approved hyperbaric oxygen therapy
- Recovery & Support Therapies – IV nutrient therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and peptides
At Young Naturopathic Center, we take a functional, science-driven approach to pain. Our licensed doctors do not focus on symptom management alone. We use advanced diagnostics to identify the cause of your pain.
About Our Pain Management Clinic
Founded by Dr. Renee Young, YNC is a doctor-led, science-forward regenerative pain clinic. Most pain clinics focus on symptom control, but regenerative pain care requires a different kind of expertise. Our focus is on identifying the source of pain and restoring tissue function using advanced diagnostics and precision imaging.
At YNC, your treatment is guided entirely by licensed doctors trained in ultrasound, regenerative injections, and functional diagnostics. We don’t guess which tissue is injured – we visualize it, measure it, and target it with precision. This doctor-led, imaging-driven approach allows us to treat pain at its biological source, not just dampen it temporarily.
We offer regenerative treatments, including prolozone therapy, ozone therapy, and ultrasound-guided injections. Each procedure targets the tissues causing discomfort with precision to reduce inflammation and accelerate repair.
YNC offers one of the most advanced non-surgical pain and recovery programs in California.
How Pain Management Works at YNC
Pain often starts small, such as a tight muscle, repetitive strain, or minor injury. Over time, it can limit movement and affect performance.
At our pain clinic in Los Gatos, we aim to reverse that process through:
Comprehensive Evaluation
Your doctor will begin with a detailed assessment of your movement and tissue health. We use X-ray, MRI, CT scans, and real-time ultrasound imaging to look at your muscles and joints to identify the cause of discomfort.
In addition to physical examination and imaging assessment, we often run targeted lab tests to understand what may be slowing your body’s healing response. Inflammation markers, nutrient deficiencies, metabolic stress, hormone imbalances and vo2max score can all influence how quickly tissues repair.
By identifying these underlying factors, we can design a more effective plan that supports both local tissue healing and your overall recovery.
Personalized Regenerative Therapies
We tailor our approach to your condition and goals:
- Muscle and fascia pain: Prolozone, PRP, and Peptide therapy to relax tight tissues, reduce inflammation, and restore mobility.
- Knee, shoulder, elbow, or ankle pain: Ultrasound-guided orthopedic injections to treat the discomfort.
- Severe injuries or degeneration: Regenerative injections and hyaluronic acid therapy to support tissue regeneration and accelerate healing at the cellular level.
Optimized Recovery and Performance
We combine regenerative therapies with targeted nutrition, supplements, and functional support to maintain results and strengthen your joints and muscles over time.
Here’s what one of our patients had to say:
Regenerative Pain Therapies Offered at YNC
At YNC, pain relief is only the starting point. Our goal is to restore the strength, mobility, and long-term performance of the tissues that support your movement.
Many of our patients are active adults or high-performers who want to return to running, strength training, sports, or simply moving without stiffness. By improving tissue oxygenation, collagen integrity, and joint mechanics, we help your body function better.
We treat pain using the following advanced regenerative therapies:
Prolozone Therapy
Prolozone delivers oxygen, ozone, and targeted nutrients using ultrasound guidance to injured or inflamed tissue for accuracy. It may help:
- Reduce inflammation
- Improve blood circulation and oxygen delivery
- Support the repair of damaged ligaments, tendons, and cartilage
People often notice faster recovery and improved mobility after acute injuries or chronic joint problems.
Ultrasound-Guided Naturopathic Orthopedic Injections
We use real-time imaging to deliver these injections with precision:
- Regenerative Solutions: Reduce inflammation in joints and tendons
- Hyaluronic Acid: Lubricates stiff joints for smoother movement
Injections are commonly used for knee, shoulder, elbow, and ankle pain.
“I believe naturopathic orthopedic injections can take pain treatment to a whole new level. While nutrition, supplements, and daily habits support healing, regenerative injections like Prolozone or exosomes let us repair the source of your pain. And as your doctor, I determine exactly how much intervention your body needs.”
Dr. Renee Young, Pain Management Specialist
Exosome Therapy
For severe or stubborn injuries, exosomes promote cellular repair and reduce inflammation, supporting faster recovery and improved mobility.
Your pain doctor combines regenerative injections with nutrition, supplements, and functional strategies, creating a plan tailored to support your body’s recovery.
Other Therapies
Based on your condition, we may also consider injections such as:
- Stem Cell or Wharton’s Jelly-Based Injections: Promote tendon-to-bone healing and improve collagen quality for long-term joint health.
- Trigger-Point Injections: Relax muscles or fascial tightness, ease muscle spasms, and reduce soft‑tissue pain.
- Peptide Therapy (BPC-157): Supports tendon, ligament, and soft tissue recovery along with other regenerative treatments.
- PRP: Platelet Rich Plasma from your own blood adds an anti-inflammatory effect for healing from within.
If your evaluation shows that injections alone cannot fully address the underlying drivers of inflammation, we may layer in additional regenerative therapies such as:
- Medical Ozone to restore oxygen and reduce inflammation
- Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for faster healing
- IV Nutrient Therapy for tissue repair
- Peptide therapy for systemic healing
These treatments enhance cellular oxygenation, reduce oxidative stress, and support tissue repair from the inside out, creating a stronger foundation for healing.
Conditions We Commonly Treat
At our pain management clinic, we help people of all ages find relief from aches, strains, and joint issues, such as:
We specialize in treating musculoskeletal pain involving joints, ligaments, tendons, fascia, and soft tissue. Our regenerative approach is ideal for movement-related injuries, overuse patterns, and age-related degeneration. We do not treat severe neurological pain conditions, opioid-dependent pain, or disorders requiring spinal injections. If your condition falls outside our scope, we’ll help guide you toward the right specialist.
Here’s what your visit looks like:
Step 1: Initial Consultation
You can meet your doctor in person or online. From day one, we review your symptoms, medical history, movement, and performance goals to find the cause of your pain.
Step 2: Diagnostics
We use imaging and real-time ultrasound to visualize your joints, tendons, ligaments, muscles, and fascia during movement.
We often run other health tests to check for inflammation, vitamin deficiencies, or other factors that may be contributing to your pain.
Step 3: Personalized Plan
You’ll receive a plan designed around your condition. This might include regenerative therapies, nutrition strategies, and lifestyle changes to support faster, complete recovery.
