Regenerative Medicine

What is regenerative medicine?

Regenerative medicine has a wide and expanding range of applications. It is changing how various conditions and injuries are managed by using the body's natural ability to heal and regenerate. In orthopedics, for example, regenerative therapies are used to manage degenerative diseases like osteoarthritis and treat injuries such as torn ligaments or tendinitis.

In cardiology, these therapies help repair damaged heart tissue after a heart attack, lowering the risk of future heart failure. Regenerative medicine also offers potential treatments for neurological conditions like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases by helping regenerate damaged neural pathways. This broad applicability highlights the therapeutic potential of regenerative medicine. The number of answers to the question, “What is regenerative medicine used for?” continues to grow.

Regenerative medicine is an emerging area of health care that focuses on replacing or healing diseased or damaged tissue, rather than providing treatments that manage symptoms. 

OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine is a state-of-the-art practice that utilizes many innovative treatments and therapies to ease pain, promote healing, and restore function. That includes advanced restorative medicine therapies.

At OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine, the team wants to have your body heal your body. 

What are regenerative medicine treatments?

Regenerative medicine encompasses many techniques. OrthoMed uses regenerative medicine to improve men’s health, address hair loss, and relieve joint pain, assist with symptoms from Long Covid, back pain, and many more areas.

Regenerative therapies can address low testosterone and erectile dysfunction by improving blood circulation and renewing damaged tissues. Biologic therapies can rejuvenate inactive hair follicles, encouraging new hair growth and strengthening existing hair.

OrthoMed’s regenerative joint pain treatments focus the body’s healing mechanisms on the source of the pain. Treatments for low back pain stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, repairing damaged tissue and reducing inflammation. For shoulder pain from conditions like arthritis or rotator cuff injuries, regenerative treatments promote tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and improve joint mobility. Knee pain, often caused by osteoarthritis or injury, can also be treated with regenerative medicine. These therapies can provide lubrication to the joint, reducing friction and promoting healthy tissue growth.

OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine offers many innovative regenerative medicine treatments. These treatments enhance your body’s natural healing abilities and include:

Natural organic XO therapies

Your body uses its supply of regenerative cells to replace diseased or damaged cells, that have the ability to transform into specialized cells, like muscle, bone, or nerve cells.

The natural organic XO therapies at OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine are an enhanced therapy that combines orthobiologics with other immuno-supportive therapies to provide fuel to have the body heal the body, and revitalize systematic functions... Naturally!

Advanced Pure platelet-rich plasma (PRP)

PRP is a type of regenerative medicine that contains a high concentration of the platelets naturally in your blood. Platelets contain growth factors that initiate cell reproduction and tissue restoration. 

PRP provides your diseased or damaged tissue with a high concentration of these healing properties to stimulate and accelerate the healing process.

At OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine, the team uses a proprietary system that enhances the healing powers of your PRP treatment. Their Advanced Pure PRP undergoes photogenic cell activation prior to placement, prolonging the healing benefits of your PRP treatment.

Intravenous (IV) nutrient infusions

OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine also provides IV nutrient infusions to support your body’s natural healing process. These infusions contain essential vitamins and minerals that boost healing and immunity and decrease pain. 

Fluid Flow is an amniotic liquid allograft rich in growth factors and cytokines that promote healing and reduce pain.

Is Regenerative Medicine Legitimate?

The benefits of regenerative medicine are supported by scientific studies and clinical trials. For example, a study in The Journal of Pain Research found significant pain relief in patients treated with regenerative therapies.

Institutions like Harvard and the Mayo Clinic are researching and implementing regenerative medicine treatments, and the National Institutes of Health recognizes the field as “an emerging area of science that holds great promise for treating and even curing a variety of injuries and diseases.”

Regulatory bodies, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, monitor regenerative therapies to ensure adherence to safety and efficacy standards. Organizations like the American Association of Tissue Banks (AATB) promote the responsible use of regenerative therapies, encouraging advancements and ethical practices within the field.

Am I a candidate for regenerative medicine?

Regenerative medicine offers significant potential benefits. Imagine treating arthritis pain or wrist pain from carpal tunnel syndrome without:

• Surgery
• Anesthesia
• Additional injury
• Added scar tissue
• Risk of complications
• Lengthy and painful recovery
• Physical therapy

Regenerative medicine procedures are minimally invasive and promote natural healing, reducing pain, shortening recovery times, and minimizing discomfort. This represents a more patient-friendly approach to addressing chronic conditions and improving overall health.

Schedule a consultation with the pain management specialists at OrthoMed Pain & Sports Medicine to see if you’re a candidate for regenerative medicine. The team utilizes their regenerative medicine treatments to:

• Assist in healing non-union fractures
• Reverse arthritis, tendonitis, and bursitis
• Treat tissue tears
• Enhance immunity
• Revitalize organs
• Facilitate growth of blood vessels and nerves

The practice offers world-class life-changing regenerative treatments with unparalleled DNA-driven healing and custom-guided interventional treatments you can’t find anywhere else.
