Regenerative Medicine for Knees
If you suffer from chronic knee pain due to arthritis or an old injury, or you’ve recently injured your knee meniscus, cartilage or ligaments (ACL, MCL) you may benefit from our non-surgical regenerative medicine procedures.
About The Knee
The knee is the joint where the bones of the upper leg meet the bones of the lower leg, allowing hinge-like movement while providing stability and strength to support the weight of the body. Flexibility, strength, and stability are needed for standing and for motions like walking, running, crouching, jumping, and turning.
Several kinds of supporting and moving parts, including bones, cartilage, muscles, ligaments, and tendons, help the knees do their job. Each of these structures is subject to disease and injury.
When a knee problem affects your ability to do things, it can have a big impact on your life. Knee problems can interfere with many things, from participation in sports to simply getting up from a chair and walking.
Our regenerative medicine protocols utilize a patient’s own bone marrow stem cells from bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) and/or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to treat bone, muscle, tendon, ligament and cartilage damage in the knee.
