Current treatments for the painful and debilitating effects of arthritis or joint pain rely on early intervention with synthetic drugs and, in severe cases, surgery. The pharmaceutical approach to these conditions is still not effective for some 20% to 40% of those suffering from arthritis or other degenerative joint conditions. According to the National Institute of Health, Regenerative Therapy can provide a promising alternative to surgery by promoting safe and natural healing. This less invasive approach attracts thousands each year, and is now available at Spine Correction Center of the Rockies, one of the few clinics in the country to offer regenerative therapy.

Stem cells are found in all of us and play a key role in the body’s healing process. They lie latent in your body until they receive signals that the body has suffered an injury and then they follow your cell signaling to the injured site. Your stem cells are able to transform into the same type of cell that was injured to promote healing. They are tasked to heal injured ligaments, tendons, tissues and bones. After an injury, or as a natural result of aging, environmental toxins, or medications the activity of your stem cells may diminish. Regenerative therapy helps this problem by delivering a high concentration of growth factors into the injured area promoting natural healing. These therapies can help your body restore stem cell signaling.

How it Works

Regenerative therapy, such as PRP, takes advantage of the body’s ability to repair itself. Similar to cortisone and steroid shots, these injections have anti-inflammatory properties, but offer far more benefits than those of standard injection therapies. While cortisone and other drugs only provide temporary pain relief, our treatment delivers growth factors to help degenerated tissue and may provide pain relief. The growth factors, may activate your body’s own stem cells promoting healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How do I know if I’m a candidate?
    If you have areas of inflammation and pain, soft-tissue defects, tendon and ligament injuries, cartilage injuries, muscle injuries, fascial injuries, injured nerves, tendinosis, osteoarthritis or joint tendinitis you’re a candidate for regenerative therapy.
  2. What is the process like?
    We start with an evaluation and x-rays. This process takes about an hour. Based on the evaluation, we’ll schedule a time for the treatment. 
  3. Are there limitations or specific instructions following the procedure?
    There are some limitations in physical activity in the 2 weeks following and working your way back up in activity level between weeks 3 and 8. If you are normally inactive some movement is encouraged. This would be walking and periods of standing and sitting. If you are an extremely active person it is advised to decrease activity for a few weeks following the procedure.
  4. Will I need physical therapy afterward?
    This is very case-specific and we can advise on this more for each individual patient.

    The long term outlook is case-specific and is dependent on the joint we are treating as well as how extensive the damage to the tissue is.

    The procedure is different for everyone. We don’t see our patients experiencing much discomfort with the injection.
