Treatable Conditions with Stem Cell Therapy

As a leader within the regenerative medicine community, it’s our job to treat people who suffer from pain on a daily basis – in non-invasive ways for long-term success. We are tired of seeing the medical community using so-called Band-Aid fixes to pain, particularly when it comes to knees. We encourage our patients to seek relief outside traditional treatments like surgery and pain medicine to better solve their orthopedic and musculo-skeletal conditions.

If you have been told over and over again that these conditions can only be successfully treated with surgery, cortisone shots and medication (which can be very addictive), it’s time to try something else: stem cell therapy for knees in Michigan.

Stem cell therapy for knees is ideal for knees and many other painful and chronic conditions, such as:

• Osteoarthritis of All Joints
• Rotator Cuff Injuries
• Labral Tears: Hip or Shoulder
• Spinal Facet Joint Syndromes
• Tendonitis
• Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Disorders
• Bursitis
• Spinal Disc Herniations
• “Whip-lash” neck pain
• Plantar Fasciitis
• Avascular Necrosis
• Non-Union Fractures

The Procedure

This painless procedure involves harvesting cells and isolating them in a lab with a centrifuge to ensure a very high concentration of cells. We put those stem cells in a syringe and re-introduce them into the targeted tissue.

When performing cell therapy for knees in Michigan, we harvest cells from either fat or bone marrow. We take many factors into consideration when selecting which to use. We typically utilize bone marrow stores because:

• They work best for the types of conditions we treat.
• The FDA imposes restrictions on the techniques used for isolating fat cells; because we practice within full compliance of the FDA, we only use bone marrow aspiration procedures.
