Avoid Surgery with Regenexx

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

Current surgical treatment options for common orthopedic injuries and arthritis include pain-management strategiessteroid injections, and ultimately surgical interventions. While all of these approaches may offer temporary relief of symptoms, they are ultimately destructive and over time often do as much harm as good.

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 cells 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.

Regenexx interventional orthopedic procedures are the world’s most advanced regenerative injection treatments. Before you consider orthopedic surgery, learn about the world’s leading customized cell injection treatments.

Regenexx patients are typically encouraged to walk the same day while most experience little to no down time, little to no need for opioid pain medication, and minimal to no time off work.

This page contains an extensive library of educational resources on common orthopedic conditions and our patented Interventional Orthopedic procedures created by Regenexx and our founder, Chris Centeno, M.D.. We encourage you to research your options.
