Teaser Headline: Stem Cell Therapy: Another option for Foot Injuries Stem Cell Therapy For Orthopedic Injuries What Is Stem Cell (Regenerative) Therapy?

A simple definition of a “stem cell� is a basic precursor cell capable of differentiating into tissues such as bone, cartilage, and muscle, in the case of mesenchymal stem cells. They also act to orchestrate the process of healing and cell signaling, much like the conductor of an orchestra. These are your own stem cells working to help you.

Our goal is to provide you with the latest in affordable, minimally invasive therapies to help acute and chronic orthopedic foot and ankle conditions. We are experienced in the field of regenerative medicine and have years of experience in advanced interventional pain management techniques. While regenerative therapies have shown a significant improvement in many orthopedic injuries, they are not a cure-all or appropriate for all conditions. We will present you with an honest opinion on your options.

Everyone is different. If regenerative therapy is not right for you, we will always give you your best options.

How It Works This is a non-surgical procedure. Although some ailments require invasive measures of treatment, many have the ability to heal. Regenerative therapy simply provides an advanced boost to the already natural healing process our body provides. Most procedures take 30-60 minutes to perform in a single office visit. You would be able to leave within an hour after the procedure. Although you are able to go about normal activity, we suggest that you take it easy for the first week or two.
