Adult Innovative Therapy
For injured or diseased tissues, adult innovative therapy is an application of alternative medicine, and promotes a body’s natural healing and reparative abilities using an individual’s own cells. To better understand, cells are harvested through collecting blood or bone marrow samples, or by aspirating tissue or fat cells. Cells are then concentrated through a specialized centrifuge, which prepares them for reinjection into the body.
This innovative therapy advances an individual’s healing by delivering these critical cells to damaged tissues in larger numbers than the body could deliver on its own. Thus, treatment is not aimed directly at an individual’s symptoms. Rather, this therapy is part of an integrated approach to treatment, with the goal of restoring degenerated muscle tissues, ligaments, bones, tendons and cartilage.
To stimulate tissues for this cutting edge injection, the physician will first inject the targeted area with dextrose. To ensure accurate placement of the injection, the physician relies upon x-ray guidance. Depending on the condition being treated, patients may receive a series of three injections, spaced 3-5 days apart.
Alternative Musculoskeletal Medicine
With the goal of repairing damaged tissues and restoring mobility for a number of pain conditions, alternative musculoskeletal medicine includes non-invasive, non-surgical medical procedures using new-age diagnostics and therapies. This arena of alternative medicine expands the scope of treatment for those with limited options. Previously, steroid injections and joint replacement surgery, along with physical rehabilitation were the only treatment methods for osteoarthritis of the knee, for example. Yet, innovative therapy is now providing a treatment protocol using an individual’s own cells to stimulate natural healing and repair.
At Allied Pain & Spine Institute, we stand behind non-surgical treatment and pain management techniques using alternative musculoskeletal medicine.
Stem cell therapy may be utilized to treat the following conditions, as a non-invasive alternative to surgery:
- Back
- Back injury and disc degeneration, as well as the malformation of bone may be treated with alternative musculoskeletal medicine, including therapies using a patient’s own cells. Specific conditions include non-healing fractures, bulging discs, spinal arthritis, spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis and herniated discs.
- Knee
- While knee injuries, including Iliotibial Band Syndrome and Meniscus Tear have previously been treated with surgery and/or steroid injections, alternative musculoskeletal medicine using innovative therapy promotes healing and tissue repair, along with bone and cartilage regrowth and ligament repair. This is a promising solution for those wanting to avoid the side effects associated with steroid injections, as well as surgery.
- Sacroiliac Joint Pain
- Low back injuries, prior surgery, childbirth and other conditions may contribute to sacroiliac (SI) joint pain in the hip and loss of mobility. Alternative medicine using cell therapy is a welcome treatment for those hoping to avoid surgery.
- Hip
- Individuals suffering from hip pain related to avascular necrosis, hip arthritis, SI joint pain, labrum tears, tendonitis and pain or inflammation from a previous surgery can benefit from the painless alternative of cell therapy.
- Shoulder
- Alternative Musculoskeletal Medicine helps restore injured or damaged tissues, including arthritis and rotator cuff tears in the shoulder.
- Elbow
- Degenerated tissue from elbow conditions such as Lateral Epicondylitis and Golfer’s Elbow can be restored and rebuilt with innovative cell therapy as part of a alternative musculoskeletal protocol. Underlying causes of a patient’s pain are treated—not only the symptoms associated with their pain.
- Hand and Wrist
- For individuals with hand or wrist pain due to arthritis, carpel tunnel syndrome or tendonitis, innovative treatments using innovative cell therapy are an effective alternative to conventional methods and surgery.
- Foot and Ankle
- A number of foot and ankle conditions, whether due to injury, overuse or planter fasciitis can be treated using the revolutionary alternative of alternative musculoskeletal medicine in which innovative cell therapy or cutting edge injections are used to strengthen and rebuild tissues.
With the ability to harness the body’s natural ability to heal and repair, alternative musculoskeletal medicine utilizing adult cell therapy and cutting edge injections is a remarkable and promising shift away from surgical methods and long physical recoveries.
While it often takes a few months to experience the full range of benefits from cell therapy, many patients respond after one treatment. Even so, with painless, invasive treatments and no risk of allergic reaction, alternative musculoskeletal medicine is a welcome alternative for rebuilding and restoring numerous conditions involving damaged tissues, bones, tendons and cartilage.
