Regenerative Medicine

OVERVIEW

‍Regenerative and restorative therapies leverage biological agents—such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), stem cells, and specialised injectables—to repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and enhance natural healing processes. These treatments are often combined with techniques like nerve hydrodissection or prolozone (prolotherapy + ozone) to address chronic or acute musculoskeletal pain.

TARGETED CONDITIONS

• Joint, Neck, Back & Spine Pain: Use of Stem Cell Therapy, PRP (with or without A2M), and Prolotherapy/Prolozone to stimulate repair and reduce inflammation.
• Nerve Pain & Nerve Hydrodissection: Targeted fluid injections that gently free entrapped nerves, reducing pain and restoring normal function.
• Knee, Foot, Ankle, Hand, Wrist & Shoulder Pain: Regenerative injections (PRP, Prolotherapy) to improve joint stability, ligament integrity, and reduce pain.
• Tendonitis & Tennis Elbow: Focused regenerative protocols (PRP or prolozone) to promote tendon healing and reduce chronic inflammation.
• Hip Pain & Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: Combined regenerative injections and targeted rehabilitation to support hip/pelvic musculature and connective tissues.
• Musculoskeletal Pain & Concussion: Emerging protocols using regenerative therapies alongside neuro-supportive IV infusions (e.g., IV Ketamine) for post-concussive symptoms.

KEY BENEFITS

• Accelerated Tissue Repair
  Biologically active injections supply growth factors and/or stem cells that can speed up healing of ligaments, tendons, and cartilage.
• Reduced Inflammation
  Therapies like PRP + A2M and prolozone help decrease inflammatory cytokines, often yielding rapid pain relief.
• Improved Joint & Nerve Function
  By targeting the root causes of pain—joint instability, nerve entrapment, or tissue degeneration—these interventions can restore lost mobility and reduce reliance on pain medications.
• Minimally Invasive
  Many of these procedures are performed via simple injections or short out-patient sessions, limiting downtime compared to surgery.

WHAT TO EXPECT

• Session Duration
  Most injection-based therapies take 30–60 minutes, including preparation and post-injection observation.
• Administration
  Injections are carefully guided (e.g., ultrasound) to target damaged tissues or entrapped nerves. Some protocols (e.g., EBOO/EBO2, NAD⁺ infusion) may require specialized equipment and slightly longer sessions.
• Aftercare
  Mild soreness at the injection site or temporary fatigue may occur. Patients are generally advised to hydrate, avoid strenuous activity for 24–48 hours, and follow any recommended physical therapy or rehabilitation guidelines.

WHO CAN BENEFIT

• Chronic or Acute Joint Pain Sufferers
  Ideal for individuals experiencing unresolved knee, shoulder, or hip discomfort who want to avoid or delay surgical intervention.
• Athletes & Active Individuals
  Beneficial for those needing faster tendon or ligament recovery and improved performance.
• Nerve Entrapment Cases
  Patients with nerve compression syndromes (e.g., carpal tunnel, radiculopathy) can benefit from hydrodissection or regenerative injections.
• Post-Injury & Post-Surgical Recovery
  Helps accelerate healing and reduce post-operative inflammation when combined with conventional rehab.
• Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
  Offers a non-surgical approach to pain and pelvic instability, especially when physical therapy alone is insufficient.

KEY THERAPEUTIC MODALITIES AVAILABLE

1. Ozone Therapy
   Uses medical-grade ozone to reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and stimulate the body’s healing response.
2. EBOO/EBO2 Therapy
   Filters and enriches blood with oxygen and ozone outside the body before reinfusion, supporting detoxification and enhanced metabolic function.
3. Peptide Therapy
   Delivers targeted peptides that can aid tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and optimize recovery.
4. NAD⁺ Therapy (Available)
   Intravenous infusion of NAD⁺ to support cellular energy production, potentially aiding tissue repair and recovery.

COMING SOON

• Stem Cell Therapy
  Harnesses autologous or allogeneic stem cells to repair and regenerate damaged tissues, promoting long-term healing.
• PRP & A2M Injections
  Platelet-Rich Plasma combined with alpha-2 macroglobulin to deliver growth factors, reduce inflammatory enzymes, and accelerate tissue repair.
• Prolotherapy / Prolozone
  Injection-based treatments that use irritant solutions (with or without ozone) to stimulate natural healing responses and strengthen connective tissues.
• Nerve Hydrodissection
  A minimally invasive procedure using fluid injections to gently separate entrapped nerves from surrounding tissues, alleviating pain and restoring function.
• Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
  Involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber to accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue regeneration.
