What is Regenerative Medicine?

This area of medicine is a relatively new, dynamic field that utilizes your body’s own mechanisms to help it heal. This is done by harvesting biologic material from your own body and transferring them to areas where they are needed.

At our medical center we help to heal tissue by making use of cutting-edge technology to repair vital tissue that assists movement and mobility. The cells and growth factors we use are biologically important in that when introduced into the site of damage, they harness your body’s natural healing capabilities and gives it a boost. Several clinical trials have shown they direct the healing process for damaged cartilage, and even bone in worn out joints. Stem cells (mesenchymal stem cells-MSCs) are some of the most effective biologic agents available for regenerating tissue, and they can be harvested from your own body sites, such as the bone of your hip, or fat from your stomach. We also use platelet rich plasma (PRP), which can be isolated from your own blood, and is a rich source of growth factors. These substances, when injected into your joints, actively decrease swelling, and repair tissues.

This cellular biologic therapy has proven its effectiveness in reducing pain and improving function. Why live in pain? Give yourself the stem cell advantage today.
