Help your body heal itself with Orthobiologics
Are you suffering from pain or injury but are not quite ready for surgery? Take a cue from professional athletes who’ve discovered the benefits of regenerative medicine to help heal injuries and treat pain in a natural way.
If you follow sports, you may have heard of injured athletes who seemingly heal and return to the game—and fast. Professional athletes not only have trainers and specialists, but have access to little-known special procedures such as orthobiologics, the use of natural substances like blood and plasma to quickly heal injuries.
Most Common Injuries Treated with Orthobiologics
- Tendonitis
- Rotator cuff tears
- Osteoarthritis
- Arthritic joints
- Overuse injuries
Platelet rich plasma injection, or PRP, is one example of orthobiologics. It’s a process that takes the plasma from your own blood, which is packaged full of growth factors. Those healthy growth factors are then concentrated and injected into your injury, allowing natural anti-inflammatory properties repair tissue and speed up your recovery.
Another example of orthobiologics are lipogems joint pain injections. Lipogems is an alternative option to surgery where regenerative cells from adipose tissue (fat) from your abdomen is injected into your area of injury. This helps to repair, replace, cushion and support damaged or injured joint tissue. This procedure is done in your doctor’s office in about an hour.
