Percutaneous Hydrotomy
A minimally invasive micro-injection technique for chronic joint pain, tendinitis and inflammatory conditions.
Centre Algos specializes in the treatment of chronic pain. We use innovative techniques such as Percutaneous Hydrotomy, developed by Dr. Guez, to relieve chronic pain from conditions such as osteoarthritis and arthritis. It is a minimally invasive technique that effectively relieves joint pain, neck pain, lower back pain, various forms of tendinitis, and autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. Percutaneous Hydrotomy is also effective for certain inflammatory digestive and urinary issues (autoimmune conditions, Crohn's disease, dysbiosis, SIBO, irritable bowel, cystitis, pyelonephritis...).

Percutaneous Hydrotomy is a care method derived from mesotherapy, developed by Dr. Guez through clinical observation and reflective practice around mesotherapy. The technique has roughly 40 years of clinical history, with extensive testimonial evidence supporting its effectiveness, particularly for managing osteoarticular pain.
What makes this technique distinctive is the injection, subcutaneously or intradermally, of a measured amount of physiological saline solution to hydrate degenerating structures, along with natural micronutrition treatments, homeopathic remedies, and substances used in line with standard mesotherapy practice. Injections are given with extremely fine, small needles. Depending on the indicated therapy, the practitioner will recommend either localized injections or a more diffuse infusion approach known as Mesoperfusion.
Water is the central element of this therapy:
• Extracellular hydration: aging, tissue degradation, the onset of health imbalances, disease, and degeneration all stem from, and in turn cause, dehydration (osteoarthritis, arthritis, disc herniation...). This is the first element of a rejuvenation approach for the whole system.
• A transport vehicle: water carries minerals, vitamins, amino acids, micronutritional elements, trace elements, calcium chelators, heavy metals, and any other therapeutic substrate needed for local regeneration.
• A genuine extracellular wash during acute and chronic inflammation: pain caused by inflammatory mediators at the site is reduced through this "wash out" and dilution of those mediators. Once the area is cleared, movement and circulation resume, triggering repair and healing of the lesion.
Depending on the therapeutic indication, the practitioner tailors the therapy to the individual's needs, following recognized, precise protocols:
• Extracellular hydration
• Extracellular micronutrition
• Microcirculation and cellular regeneration
• Immune stimulation through Mesovaccination
• Cellular construction–destruction balance
• Cellular detoxification
Most of the substances injected are natural, since they already exist in the body and are essential to life: vitamins, trace elements, minerals, amino acids, and so on. Side effects are very rare, making this an effective, low-cost, and safe technique.
The practitioner is highly qualified and listed with the International Society of Percutaneous Hydrotomy.

Video transcript
This video introduces Percutaneous Hydrotomy, a technique developed by Dr. Guez. It involves micro-injections of saline solution and natural agents under the skin to hydrate degenerating tissues, relieve joint, neck, lower-back and tendon pain, and support certain autoimmune and inflammatory digestive conditions. Water acts as a vehicle for extracellular hydration, micronutrient delivery and washing away inflammatory mediators. The injections are performed with very fine needles; the technique is minimally invasive with very few side effects.
