Your knee experiences tons of force throughout your lifetime. Each time you stand from a sitting position, take a step, go up and down the stairs, or carry a heavy object, your knee must stabilize, balance, and take the weight. That puts your knee in vulnerable positions frequently, and causes wear-and-tear over years of use.
Are you feeling any of the following types of knee discomfort?
Most of our patients have tried the following treatments for knee discomfort without lasting results. Doctors have told them surgery is their only other option.
Care for knee discomfort begins with a thorough office examination. We use a hands-on approach to understand the nature of your knee discomfort. If needed, we review imaging of the affected area.
A typical care plan begins with an Alpha-2 Macroglobulin (A2M) injection to reduce inflammation and slow tissue degeneration. A2M is collected directly from your own blood, so no foreign substances are introduced to your body.
Over the next six weeks you receive several laser and acoustic compression therapies on the joint to stimulate blood flow and tissue rejuvenation. Additionally, you receive an injection of your own Bone Marrow Aspirate (BMA) which provides the stem cells to encourage the rejuvenation of healthy tissue.
At your six month check up you receive another injection of platelet-rich plasma, drawn from your blood, to increase healthy proteins in the affected area that encourage cell and tissue growth. The entire process puts your knee in the best position possible to repair itself.
The longer you let this go on, the more difficult things get. Please, call us for aconsultation today, and let’s see what we can do for you.
