What Conditions Can Be Treated with Regenerative Medicine?

Regenerative medicine is the result of constant research work in the healthcare field. All over the world, doctors, researchers, and laboratory staff are looking for new ways to help people heal from various illnesses and diseases and enjoy a long, healthy, and active life. At Pain Therapy Associates, we believe in progress through technology for our patients’ well-being and offer several regenerative medicine therapies.

These therapies encourage the body to heal by regenerating, repairing, or rebuilding damaged tissues. They work for several conditions and prove effective for muscle, joint, and bone tissues in equal measures.

Conditions We Can Treat Using Regenerative Medicine

Let us start with a few words on the types of therapies we offer in our clinic:

  • Prolotherapy – injecting natural medications into the injury site to trigger the body’s natural healing response
  • Platelet Rich Plasma – we extract platelets from the patient’s blood and inject them into the injured area to stimulate the release of growth factors and proteins that repair tissues
  • Adipose and Bone Marrow Stem Cells – stem cells can repair tissues damaged by trauma, from broken bones to torn ligaments.

In our experience, all patients with the following conditions can benefit from regenerative medicine therapies:

Bursitis

Bursitis is an inflammation of the liquid-filled sac called the bursa, which acts as a cushion between the bones and muscles in a joint. Bursitis can occur in any major joint knee, hip, elbow, or shoulder) and it is the result of overuse.

Workers who perform repetitive physical activities and professional athletes are prone to this condition. Regenerative medicine can help the bursa heal and reduce the inflammation in the area. The patient will soon experience relief from pain and will regain full mobility and use of the joint.

Golfer’s Elbow and Tennis Elbow

Lateral epicondylitis, known as golfer’s elbow or tennis elbow, is an inflammation of a tendon in the elbow. Repetitive elbow movements can, in time, create micro-tearing and micro-injuries in this ligament. As a result, the patient experiences pain, the sensation of tenderness in the elbow, and reduced grip strength.

The traditional RICE method (rest, ice, compress, elevate) can take weeks until healing and you may not fully recover the strength and mobility in the respective arm. We encourage you to come to Pain Therapy Associates and let us heal you with regenerative medicine therapies.

Tendinitis and Tendon Tears

Tendinitis is an inflammatory condition of the tendons caused by overuse. Tendon tears can occur after a sudden trauma, such as a sports accident, a car crash, and a severe fall. Even an ankle sprain can result in tendon tears.

Regenerative medicine works very well for both conditions. The platelet-rich plasma therapy or Prolotherapy can stimulate and speed up the repair of the injured tendon.

Osteoarthritis in the Knees, Hips, Back, and Neck

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative condition, affecting the cartilages in the joints. The joint becomes stiff and painful, causing the patient difficulty in movements. This condition is more frequent in middle-aged and elderly patients who led extremely active life.
The team of doctors at Pain Therapy Associates can give you back your mobility and the ability to continue enjoying an active life in your golden years. Schedule an appointment with us now and let us identify the best regenerative medicine therapy for your condition!
