KNOW MORE

The human body consists of a framework of bones, cartilage, ligaments and tendons working together to maintain optimal function. Injury or illness can impact that framework and the body’s overall performance. Research has shown that a concentrated injection of stem cells can reduce pain over time and accelerate the reparative process. Innova Pain Center is now offering Stem Cell Therapy that has the potential to regenerate tissue, bone and cartilage.

What is Stem Cell Therapy?

BMA (bone marrow aspirate) is extracted from your bone marrow using a minimally invasive procedure known as Stem Cell Therapy. The BMA, which contains a mix of stem cells that produce red blood cells (hematopoietic), white blood cells and tissue (mesenchymal stem cells), is then injected in the affected area. BMA is most often extracted with a small needle from the hip or pelvis area.

WHY USE BMA?

  • BMA can be found in the body in abundant quantities
  • BMA renews and restores through cell divisionl division

Is it safe?

The BMA used in Stem Cell Therapy can be safely and effectively transplanted in a quick minimally invasive outpatient procedure in about an hour. Since BMA comes from your body it is an autologous procedure meaning that it is derived from your own body so there is no risk of rejection. After receiving Stem Cell Therapy, it is recommended to refrain from strenuous physical activity for the first 30 days. However, normal day-to-day activities may begin after two days of rest and recovery. Your physician may instruct you with further restrictions based on your specific injury and procedure.

How many sessions does it take?

One session. It can repeated in the future for the same treatment area or other parts of the body if needed.

What results can i expect from stem cell therapy?

A high percentage of patients experience relief after the treatment. The complete restorative healing process of the injected part may take up to 12 weeks.

HOW DO I KNOW IF I AM A CANDIDATE FOR STEM CELL THERAPY?

Ifyou are someone who experiences chronic spine pain, back pain, neck pain or sacroiliacjoint pain, knee pain, hip pain, you are most likely a candidate for Stem Cell Therapy.

Other injuries include:

  • Joint pain in your shoulders, elbows, ankles, wrists, fingers, and toes
  • Soft tissue injuries include tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, plantar fasciitis, rotator cuff syndrome
