Regenerative Medicine Q & A

What is regenerative medicine?

Regenerative medicine is an innovative practice that stimulates your body’s natural healing response. Regenerative medicine uses stem cells or your blood to flood an injured part of your body with the nutrients and proteins needed to trigger cell growth and healing. Regenerative practices can support healing after surgery or treat degenerative conditions.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections and stem cell therapy are the most common regenerative medicine practices. PRP involves using a sample of your blood to create a serum rich in platelets and then injecting it into your foot or ankle.

What is stem cell therapy?

Stem cells are the basic building blocks of your body. These cells can develop into other cells your body needs at a given time. Stem cell therapy uses these cells, usually extracted from your own body, to heal injured tissue and encourage new tissue growth.

What conditions are treated with regenerative medicine?

Regenerative medicine procedures facilitate healing for injuries and degenerative conditions like:

Arthritis
Tendonitis
Chronic ligament pain

They’re also used after surgery or to support the healing process following a bone fracture.

What are the benefits of regenerative medicine?

Regenerative treatments relieve pain and accelerate your body’s healing response. The treatments are minimally invasive and can be combined with other treatments to maximize their effectiveness.
