Stem Cell Therapy For Orthopedic Injuries And Arthritis
Everyday, I help patients avoid surgery with Stem Cell Therapy and currently, it is the number one non-surgical alternative to surgery. Professional athletes turn to stem cells to avoid season-ending surgery and many athletes credit the treatment as the most important part of their recovery process.
Stem Cell Therapy is a natural treatment because it applies adult stem cells, which is stem cells taken from the fat tissue or bone marrow of our patients. I, Dr. Bieber, have helped patients all over the world recover from severe injuries with Stem Cell Therapy
This treatment is great for tendon and ligament tears as well as regenerating cartilage for arthritis treatment. To be able to regenerate cell tissue that actively repairs and replaces current damaged tissue helps the body repair itself quickly and efficiently.
How it works is quite miraculous and Stem Cell Therapy may even replace millions of surgeries as the recommended treatment each year in the near future. Stem cells live throughout the body. They are cells that are able to transform into many types of tissue. They can transform into tendon tissue, ligament tissue, cartilage tissue, and even organ tissue. Once a part of the body is injured, stem cells transform into the type of tissue needed and replace the damaged tissue.
Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy For Orthopedic Injuries And Arthritis
Another vital treatment that is taking non-interventional medicine by storm is Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy or PRP Therapy. Both PRP Therapy and Stem Cell Therapy are offered at Cross Bay PMR, where me, Dr. Benjamin Bieber implements each treatment using an ultrasound guidance technique that allows me to see exactly where the stem cells or prp need to be placed in the body.
Platelet Rich Plasma contains over 30 growth factors that actively repairs and replaces damaged tissue. It also is great for repairing blood vessel damage that allows new blood flow to the area. This is vital because new blood flow provides much needed nutrients and minerals that will repair tissue damage.
Platelet Rich Plasma is also a natural treatment and is made from the platelets derived from the patient’s own blood. During this treatment, we take a sample of blood and spin it in a centrifuge system to create PRP and this prp is then immediately injected into the area of injury
Many different types of orthopedic injuries can be treated with either Stem Cell Therapy or PRP Therapy and based on the severity and type of injury, I will decide which treatment will provide the highest chance of success.
Injuries like ligament tears of the knee, rotator cuff shoulder injuries, bone on bone arthritis, and tendon damage in the wrist or elbow all can be treated with Stem Cell Therapy and PRP Therapy. This non-surgical treatment can be applied before any surgery and with success, surgery can be avoided.
