10 Aug Finding Joint Pain Relief with Stem Cell Therapy
We offer innovative surgical alternatives for people enduring joint, tendon, ligament or bone pain. Our services reduce pain and inflammation, accelerate healing and potentially regenerate your own cartilage. Find out today how stem cell therapy can help you not just eliminate your symptoms, but the source of your symptoms.
Stem Cells: What Are They?
Stem cells are found in all of us and play a key role in the body’s healing process. Stem cells are the powerhouse cells of the body because they can turn into whatever type of cell the body needs. They are similar to a blank canvas that can be turned into whatever an artist wants. If there is a muscle injury, stem cells can turn into the cells needed to repair and regenerate the muscle. If there is a bone break, the stem cells can turn into the cells the bone needs to be repaired. Stem cells truly are amazing!
Stem cells can be found in adult tissues such as the brain, bone marrow, blood and blood vessels, skin, the liver and skeletal muscles. This is one source of stem cells. They are also found in embryos formed during the blastocyst phase of embryological development according to Medical News Today. However, we only focus on and use stem cells that are already found in adult tissues.
Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cells are used to treat injuries or ailments that involve ligaments, tendons, tissues and bones. Stem cell therapy is used for painful and debilitating effects of arthritis or joint pain as well. Many patients rely on synthetic drugs and sometimes surgery to help fix their joint pain, even though both of these options are ineffective for 20-40% of patients. Every patient already has stem cells, however, our stem cell supply in the body declines as we age. That is one of the reasons healing takes longer the older you get older. Stem cell therapy helps solve this problem by providing extra cells you need for repair right at the source of your injury or ailment.
The Procedure
We love stem cell therapy because it is a great alternative to invasive surgical procedures. Our stem cell therapy procedure is simple and takes only 15 minutes of your time for a treatment. Most patients see pain relief within 24-48 hours of receiving their therapy in-office. The procedure requires an injection of stem cells, however there is no surgery, general anesthesia, or prolonged recovery period involved. Most of our patients experience complete joint restoration of their ligaments, tendons and cartilage within a month (usually around 28 days).
Some patients are unsure of stem cell therapy, however, these injections have been used over 10,000 times in the United States. They’ve also been used in Europe on more than 100,000 patients. The best part? There have been no reported adverse side effects in any of those cases, giving stem cell therapy a 100% safety record. It’s worth a try if you are suffering from pain, especially from arthritis or other joint conditions.
Other Natural Healing Methods
At Mile High Spine & Pain Center, we specialize in therapies that help rehabilitate the body the natural way. We don’t seek after surgical procedures or narcotics to manage pain and symptoms. All of our therapies seek to help boost your body’s natural healing capabilities while helping to reduce your symptoms. You may actually benefit from one of our other rehabilittative therapies:
- Chiropractic Care – This therapy deals with the body’s muscular, nervous and skeletal systems. We believe a healthy spine follows a normal alignment. When the spine is not aligned correctly, nerves and discs in the back can become compressed. We follow a series of gentle adjustments and spinal manipulation to put your spine back in alignment. The chiropractor does this by applying a small amount of focused pressure to move vertebrae and to loosen joints that have been frozen in place.
- Anti-Inflammatory/Joint Injections – Still in pain? Our anti-inflammatory injections are great for relieving pain you have right at the source while also working to reduce inflammation, especially in the joints. You can receive one of these as a quick fix for pain as you go through our other therapies for longer-lasting relief.
- Trigger-Point Therapy – The body has an estimated 620 points in the body that can become knots of tension at one point or another. These knots can be physically palpable and cause you localized pain or even pain in another part of the body. We can relieve your pain and neuropathy symptoms with gentle and deep-tissue massage techniques to find and remove your trigger points. Patients see pain relief in just one treatment!
We also give our patients the option to receive therapy for neuropathy, dry-needle therapy, and services such as diagnostic ultrasound, food intolerance testing, auto injury assessment, vibration exercises and more.
