Using Cell Therapies to Treat Your Pain
再生医学是利用干细胞或再生细胞等细胞疗法治疗疾病或损伤的医疗保健领域。目前还不完全清楚这些细胞是如何工作的，但研究人员认为它们可以修复病变或受损的组织。
再生医学可用于治疗关节炎、韧带损伤和急慢性肌腱损伤。
We’re leading several research projects and offer the most advanced regenerative medicine care in the region. If you’re interested in learning more, talk to a provider near you. We’ll answer your questions and help find the right treatment for you.
Orthobiologic Treatment Options
Orthobiologics treat musculoskeletal injuries through cells taken from fat, blood or bone marrow. These treatments may reduce your pain, accelerate healing and improve recovery.
Your treatment options may include:
Adipose-Derived Stem Cells:少量的脂肪从你的腹部或臀部取出。该样本中的再生细胞被分离和测试。然后这些细胞被注射到你身体需要治疗的部位。
We’re the only site in the country that offers a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved study to treat osteoarthritis in the hip, knee, ankle, wrist or shoulder. This service is not currently an FDA-approved clinical treatment.
Bone Marrow Cells:Bone marrow is the spongy part of bones that contains many cells. Our providers will access these regenerative cells through a process called bone marrow aspiration.
They’ll remove bone marrow from the bone tissue at the back of the pelvis and isolate the regenerative cells. Those cells will then be injected into the part of your body that needs treatment.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP).A treatment of PRP may help your body heal, improve movement and decrease pain. PRP is taken from your blood.
我们会取一小部分血液样本进行处理，分离血浆和血小板。然后这些细胞被注射到你受伤的地方。
Additional Same Day Treatment Options
Orthobiologic treatments aren’t right for all conditions. If you struggle with joint or tendon pain but aren’t a good candidate for orthobiologics, you still have options.
We offer:
- Hyaluronic Acid:Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the area surrounding a healthy joint. Over time, the amount of this acid in your joints may decrease. We can inject hyaluronic acid directly into your joint to help cushion and protect an affected area.
- Steroid Injections:Steroids are a type of medication that helps decrease inflammation. We inject this medication into inflamed areas to decrease swelling and pain.
