Don't Miss! Learn about your non-surgical options for hand and wrist injury.

Have you been told that steroid injections or invasive surgery are your only options to treat your hand or wrist pain? Interventional orthopedics provides a non-surgical alternative that uses your own cells to treat the damage.

At Regenexx we invented a new approach to orthopedic care we call Interventional Orthopedics. This approach involves the use of image guidance (flouroscopy and ultrasound) to precisely place high-dose stem cells or platelets from your body directly where they are needed in a specific joint structure. These cells then work in the site of your injury to grow into new, healthy tissue, a process that will only occur if the cells have been placed exactly where they need to go in order to achieve positive outcomes for the patient. This precise approach to orthopedic care can’t be replicated by a surgeon or nurse in a chiropractor’s office. Interventional Orthopedics requires thousands of hours of training following a standardized protocol process to become a licensed Regenexx physician.

Wear and tear on the wrists and hands is increasingly common in a world filled with hand-held devices and keyboards. As we place more and more strain on our hands and wrists, they can wear down over time beyond our body’s natural ability to repair damage. While total joint reconstruction surgery may improve the condition for some, new problems can easily develop over time when we fail to address the biomechanical causes of our injury. As a result, many surgical patients go on to experience continued symptoms such as numbness, tenderness, or reduced range of motion or function.

The Regenexx family of non-surgical stem-cell and blood-platelet procedures are next generation regenerative injection treatments for those who are suffering from pain or reduced range of motion due to carpal tunnel syndrome, basal joint/CMC arthritis, hand arthritis, or other injuries and conditions in the hand and wrist. The Regenexx treatment for injuries in the hand joints and wrist uses your own stem cells, blood platelets, and/or growth factors to help repair damaged areas that are causing pain. Regenexx patients typically experience little or no down time from the procedure.
