Regenerative Medicine

So How does Regenerative Medicine work?

Our bodies are continuously breaking down tissues and cells and replacing them with new ones (ex. as your skeleton is rebuilt every 7 years in the early stages of your life), Especially after you’ve suffered an injury. But as we get older and experience more wear and tear on our bodies, it then becomes more difficult for your body to recover and fully heal because we don't have as many stem cells as we did when we were younger. As we age our body continually produces less and less of these on our own.

Regenerative Medicine can be a particularly powerful healing method in dealing with your healing because this procedure increases the stem cells your body uses in recovery and rebuilding and can develop into a variety of different cell types or tissues. When they’re injected directly into a ligament, for instance, the cells have the potential to help your body start regenerating and creating new ligament cells, thus healing and strengthening the surrounding tissues.

What are the conditions that Regenerative Medicine can treat?

Regenerative Medicine injections truly work from in your tissues to develop new cells, the affect a multitude of conditions.

This can be beneficial in the treatment of (but, not limited to):

Regenerative Medicine is minimally invasive treatment, requiring just a few minor injections, and there aren’t any known side effects at this time, you can be confident that your treatment will be safe and effective.

When do Regenerative Medicine treatments start working?

While the Regenerative Medicine injections immediately go to work helping your body in regenerating new cells and tissues, the overall process does takes time. It’s is normal to experience some initial swelling and inflammation, especially when your injections are administered directly into a joint.

Once the initial inflammation subsides, you should start noticing improvement in the treated area in as little as 3-4 weeks usually. Plus, since your body continues to create new tissues and promote healing, you should start feeling better with each passing day after.

The Team at Beneficial Health Medical Center will tailor your therapy based on how quickly you heal and how well you’re progressing after. While most will get relief after a single session, you might need a series of injections spaced several weeks or months apart to see optimal results.
