At SOHMA Integrative Medicine in Long Beach, and Lakewood CA, we are dedicated to helping those who suffer from chronic pain without relying on prescription drugs to mask the root causes of recurring pain. We’ve embraced the exciting breakthrough medical revolution of regenerative medicine to optimize our bodies’ natural healing process. If you are considering spine surgery or joint replacement surgery to eliminate any chronic pain, regenerative medicine may be the right treatment for you.
What is Regenerative Therapy?
Regenerative medicine is the easiest, non-surgical method to introduce human cellular tissue product based therapies and plasma rich platelets to affected areas in an attempt to promote growth and repair injuries, and potentially assist in treating degenerative diseases and other musculoskeletal conditions. It is the process of replacing or ‘regenerating’ human cells, tissues, or organs to restore or establish normal function. This process can be done by using tissue taken from your own body, or from an external source such as a donor.
Our regenerative medical treatments are performed with the goal of helping patients reach their full potential without surgery and without reliance on long-term medication use. Regenerative therapy can potentially help repair:
- Tendons
- Muscles
- Ligaments
- Cartilage and more
Regenerative medicine can help with a wide range of conditions, including both degenerative conditions and injuries. Instead of treating these injuries by fighting our bodies natural response with anti-inflammatory medications, cortisone shots, and numbing our pain with prescription drugs, regenerative medicine is the science of helping our bodies heal. Regenerative therapy is proven to increase function and decrease or even stop pain entirely.
