Are you struggling with knee pain due to osteoarthritis but hesitant about surgery?

Genicular Artery Embolization (G*E) could be the solution you’ve been searching for! This innovative, minimally invasive procedure offers significant benefits:

- Pain Relief: G*E reduces inflammation and blocks pain signals, providing relief in as little as 1–2 weeks.

- Preservation of Joint Function: It targets the source of inflammation without compromising joint structure, potentially delaying or avoiding knee replacement surgery.

- Quick Recovery: With no major incisions, most patients recover quickly and can resume daily activities faster than with traditional surgery.

- Outpatient Convenience: G*E is often performed as an outpatient procedure, meaning you can return home the same day.

If you’re not ready for surgery or other treatments haven’t worked, G*E might be your next step toward improved mobility and quality of life. Call and schedule an appointment today with Dr Martinez to see if it’s right for you!

At Espada Vascular, under the expert guidance of Dr. Martinez in San Antonio, TX, we strive to keep our community informed about vital vascular health issues. Today, we're focusing on Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), a common but often overlooked condition that affects millions of people.

PAD occurs when plaque buildup narrows the arteries, restricting blood flow to the limbs, especially the legs. Here's what you need to know:

1️⃣ Symptoms: PAD can cause leg pain, cramping, numbness, and even non-healing sores. However, many people with PAD don't experience symptoms, making regular check-ups crucial for early detection.

2️⃣ Risk Factors: Smoking, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, and age are common risk factors for developing PAD.

3️⃣ Prevention: Maintain a heart-healthy lifestyle by eating well, exercising regularly, and managing your risk factors. Quit smoking if you're a smoker, and keep your blood pressure and cholesterol in check.

4️⃣ Diagnosis & Treatment: Dr. Martinez and the Espada Vascular team utilize state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to detect PAD. Treatment options depend on the severity of the condition and may include medications, lifestyle changes, minimally invasive procedures, or surgery.

Don't let PAD slow you down! If you're experiencing any symptoms or are concerned about your vascular health, schedule a consultation with Dr. Martinez at Espada Vascular in San Antonio, TX. Our team is dedicated to providing personalized, compassionate care to help you maintain optimal vascular health.

Living with constant knee pain can take over your life. Many patients try physical therapy, medications, and injections, only to find the pain comes right back.

✔️ Walked out the same day
✔️ Felt relief the very next day
✔️ Back to normal activities within a few days
✔️ Long‑lasting results

Is Your Vascular Health in Your Hands? Unlock the Secrets to Thriving!

🍎 Eat a healthy diet: Choose whole grains, fruits, veggies, lean proteins, and fish. Avoid saturated fats and bad cholesterol to prevent plaque buildup in arteries.

⚖️ Maintain a healthy weight: Shedding pounds improves blood flow and reduces the risk of vascular disease.

🩸 Control diabetes: Manage blood sugar levels to prevent narrowed blood vessels and poor circulation.

🩺 Manage blood pressure: Keep it in check to lower the risk of stroke, heart failure, heart attack, and kidney damage.

🚭 Say no to smoking: Quit smoking and avoid to***co products to protect your blood vessels.

🍷 Drink responsibly: Limit alcohol intake to maintain healthy arteries and avoid hypertension.

😌 Stress less: Prioritize stress management techniques to protect your vascular health.

We’re excited to announce that Dr. Jeffrey M. Martinez is now offering Physiologic Insulin Resensitization (PIR) treatments right here at Espada Vascular.

PIR is an innovative approach that uses insulin as a hormone rather than a drug, working with your body to improve how it processes glucose—helping restore metabolic function and potentially reduce complications from diabetes and related conditions.

At Espada Vascular, we’re committed to bringing advanced, patient-centered treatments to our community—and PIR is another way we’re doing just that.
Contact us today to schedule a consultation and see if PIR is right for you.

Did you know?
Over 8 million people in the U.S. are affected by Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), a condition where narrowed arteries limit blood flow to the legs. This can cause pain, cramping, and even make everyday activities harder. If left untreated, PAD can lead to more serious complications like amputation or heart disease.

The good news? Early detection and treatment can help manage symptoms and improve your quality of life! If you're experiencing leg pain, cramping, or numbness, it's important to talk to a healthcare professional.
