 JOF offers one-day Orthopedic Injection Workshops once each year, with research-based content and hands-on practice using anatomical models. The next workshop is scheduled for Saturday, April 22 2023 in Lafayette, California (the second day of our two-day Orthopalooza 2-Day Skills Workshop).

Site-specific orthopedic injections content (upper extremity, lower extremity, etc.) also is also covered as part of our Orthopalooza 2-day skills Workshops (Upper Extremity & Pediatric Conditions, and Lower Extremity & Inflammatory / Degenerative Conditions).

The workshops are available to all holders of advanced practice degrees in healthcare holding a current license. ​​Scholarships for some programs are available through our Dolores Beanland Nursing Scholarship Fund.
Why injections?
Muscle and joint injuries have many causes, including: muscle strains, trauma, connective tissue disease, degenerative joint disease, tendinitis, bursitis, arthritis, inherited congenital disorders, and miscellaneous systemic diseases.

Corticosteroid injections can be a useful adjunct to the treatments employed in managing these conditions. They are most effective when combined with other pharmacologic and rehabilitation measures, such as the administration of NSAIDs, stretching, ice, heat, etc.

They are also relatively safe procedures and can be managed by a variety of clinicians.
