Regenerative medicine is effective for treating a variety of conditions, including joint pain, muscle injuries, tendon tears, arthritis, and more. If you’re dealing with chronic pain or have been told surgery might be your only option, regenerative treatments could offer a minimally invasive alternative.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses components from your blood to stimulate healing, while stem cell therapy utilizes cells that aid in tissue repair and regeneration. Both treatments are performed in-office and require little to no downtime, allowing you to get back to your routine faster.
Regenerative medicine treatments like PRP and stem cell therapy are regarded as safe: they use your body’s natural components. Our experienced specialists follow strict medical guidelines, ensuring the highest levels of safety and efficacy.

Many patients need only one PRP injection, while others benefit from a short series, depending on the condition and how you respond. Improvement usually builds gradually over several weeks. Your provider will recommend a plan and check your progress at follow-up visits.
Anti-inflammatory medicines like ibuprofen and naproxen can interfere with how PRP works, so your provider may ask you to stop them for a period before and after your injection. Plan to take it easy for a few days afterward. Always follow the specific instructions your provider gives you.
Many insurance plans do not cover PRP or stem cell treatment. Our team can explain the cost before your visit and review our self-pay pricing with you, so there are no surprises.
