Regenerative Spine Therapy

Ospina Medical Provides Non-Surgical Treatments

If you’ve been told that epidural steroid injections or invasive spine surgery are your only options for addressing back pain, there may be a less invasive alternative. Ospina Medical, a location in the licensed Regenexx network, offers procedures that use the body’s biologic materials to support tissue repair without surgery.

Epidural steroid injections are commonly used to reduce inflammation around spinal nerves and may provide temporary relief. However, repeated exposure to high-dose steroids can potentially suppress the body’s natural healing responses and contribute to tissue breakdown, which may ultimately accelerate the need for surgical intervention.

Spinal fusion is a major surgical procedure that carries a substantial risk of complications. Research shows that complications occur in more than one-third of fusion cases, and a large percentage of patients continue to require narcotic pain medications even after recovery.

Surgical patients may also experience significantly longer time away from work compared to those who pursue non-surgical care. By contrast, procedures using Regenexx lab processes have a reported complication rate of less than 0.1% and offer a less invasive option without permanently altering spinal structures.

Ospina Medical delivers an advanced form of orthopedic care developed by Regenexx, known as interventional orthobiologics. This method involves the use of real-time imaging technologies, such as fluoroscopy and ultrasound, to guide the precise placement of custom concentrations of your cells into targeted spinal areas. For these procedures to support the body’s natural repair mechanisms effectively, accuracy is essential. This level of precision cannot be reproduced in general practice settings. Only physicians who complete rigorous third-party training are licensed to perform Regenexx procedures.

Expert physicians at Ospina Medical identify the likely source of back pain and recommend appropriate treatment options. They perform outpatient procedures using Regenexx lab processes that may help reduce pain and improve spinal function without surgery. Using advanced imaging such as fluoroscopy or ultrasound, these expert physicians precisely place custom concentrations of your body’s biologic materials into areas of damage to help stabilize the spine and support mobility.
