Are You Ready to Get Your Hiking Knees Back? Here in southern Utah, we are blessed with an amazing recreational playground. Have you had the opportunity to hike Observation Point in Zions National Park? This hike starts on the east side of the park a short distance past Zion Ponderosa. At the conclusion of your hike, you will be rewarded with a breath-taking view of nearly every major attraction in the park. On the hike, you will encounter steep hills as you trek through the picturesque Echo Canyon. You will ascend nearly 2,000 feet, and you will need some water and healthy knees to get you there and back. If you don’t feel like you could take this hike or participate in a physical activity you previously enjoyed because of knee pain, there is good news: a noninvasive treatment— accepted by most Medicare and TRICARE and some Blue Cross insurances—that might work for you. It’s called Stem Cell Recruitment Therapy®.
Stem Cell Recruitment Therapy® is a revolutionary procedure that rejuvenates, regenerates, and lubricates ailing joints, helping to increase mobility while decreasing pain. Although our bodies have natural, built-in healing capabilities, this therapy helps promote your body’s own healing capabilities for repairing diseased and damaged tissues. By using a combination of growth factors and other endogenously synthesized molecules, it helps to reconstruct and regenerate new, healthy tissue without surgery. What does this mean for you? It means you can finally enjoy that hike to Observation Point, take some amazing pictures, and make some lasting memories with friends and family!
