Are you suffering from chronic knee pain due to arthritis? You’re not alone. Osteoarthritis is a prevalent joint disease affecting the daily lives of millions of middle-aged and elderly Americans. Daily living becomes increasingly difficult when your joints are affected by arthritis. Over time, if left untreated, the bones that make up your joints can lose their normal shape. This deterioration can further impact mobility and cause you even more pain.
While there’s currently no cure for arthritis, certain treatments can help slow the disease’s progression and lessen painful symptoms. At Spine Correction Center, we help our clients battle the debilitating effects of arthritis without surgery or pharmaceuticals. Instead we rely on Stem Cell Therapy.
What is Arthritis?
Three different types of arthritis can occur in your knees. The most common is osteoarthritis, a progressive disease that slowly wears away joint cartilage. This type of arthritis is most likely to strike after middle age. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease that can strike at any age. Post-traumatic arthritis develops following an injury to the knee. It can happen years after a torn meniscus, ligament injury or fracture occurs.
No matter what degree or type of arthritis you’re suffering from, the effects can be debilitating.
Arthritis Risks
Age-related joint pain is usually chronic and hard to completely eliminate. However, it also tends to respond well to conservative treatments such as exercise and anti-inflammatory medications. Treating RA symptoms is harder. If you don’t seek immune system treatment to slow the joint damage, you could develop further problems such as:
- Loss of shape or movement in a badly affected joint
- Stiffness that makes fine hand movements difficult
- Numbness and tingling that spreads throughout the extremities connected to the affected joint
- Extreme tenderness that even clothing irritates
Arthritis Treatment Options
Improving your diet with healthy fats and nutrients that your joints need to rebuild cartilage can have surprisingly effective results. At Spine Correction Center, we can test you for food allergies or environmental sensitivities in our Fort Collins clinic to see if something in your routine is affecting your joints. Our treatments include:
- Joint inflammation injections for immediate relief
- Gentle manipulation and massage to restore flexibility to a stiff wrist or knee
- Chiropractic care to release joint tension
- Recommended exercise programs to lower irritation without further damaging the joint
- Stem Cell Therapy
Stem Cell Therapy Treatment for Knee Pain
If you’ve injured your knee meniscus, knee cartilage, ACL or MCL ligaments, or you have chronic knee pain due to a past injury or arthritis, you may want to consider knee Stem Cell Therapy. Traditionally, treatment for these conditions require surgery (arthroscopic knee surgery to repair ligament tears or total knee joint replacement), months of rehab, and increased risks.
With recent strides in healthcare and science, alternative procedures are now available that can alleviate your knee pain and the conditions that prompted it with an in-office injection procedure. Unlike traditional surgery, Stem Cell Therapy patients are typically encouraged to walk the same day, and most patients experience very little downtime following the procedure.
The Benefits of Stem Cell Therapy for Arthritic Knee Pain
At Spine Correction Center, we like to exhaust every natural, non-invasive, non-surgical, non-pharmaceutical option for your treatment before we resort to other options. Prior to Stem Cell Therapy becoming available, most people with osteoarthritis eventually needed surgery. However, Stem Cell Therapy offers another treatment option that can keep you out of surgery and reduce your pain.
Spine Correction Center is one of the few clinics in America to offer amniotic stem cells for Stem Cell Therapy. We couple the treatment with rehabilitation (if needed) provided by our integrated team, to correct the reason your knee “wore out” in the first place. Spine Correction Center is integrated with medical physicians, doctors of physical therapy and chiropractic physicians. Dealing with chronic joint pain is what we do!
