Experiencing the joys of life often comes with the natural wear and tear of aging- like joint damage. Keeping your joints healthy is vital to overall mobility and comfort, whether you’re partaking in your favorite sport or walking with a loved one. And if you’re experiencing regular joint pain, you’re not alone. The CDC estimates that 53.2 million adults in the US have been diagnosed with arthritis. That’s roughly one in five people suffering from arthritis-related joint discomfort.
Fortunately, innovation and stem cell therapy for joint repair is a viable solution. It’s a revolutionary approach to healing, and worth exploring if you’re ready to take back your active mobility. Whether you’ve been diagnosed with arthritis or suffer from old injuries that present persistent pain, you might assume that invasive surgeries or joint replacement are your only option.
We offer a less-invasive solution for holistic joint care with our stem-cell therapy treatments at Castle Rock Regenerative Healthcare. Our own renowned Dr. Scott™️ is here to support your body through lifelong endeavors with tailored stem-cell treatment plans. Schedule an in-person or telehealth appointment today with Dr. Scott™️ to find the best-fit plan for you and your health goals.
How Do Stem Cells Help With Joint Repair?
Stem cells are a revolutionary tool for regenerative health practices. They are essentially undifferentiated cells, which, when administered appropriately, signal your body’s own cells to regenerate via the paracrine effect (cell signaling). Stem cells have incredible clinical applications, from healing neurodegenerative conditions to joint or connective tissue injuries.
What Stem Cells Does Castle Rock Regenerative Healthcare Use?
Castle Rock uses umbilical-derived stem cells in stem cell treatments. Umbilical-derived stem cells are found within the umbilical cord. These astounding little powerhouses are only sourced from live births and processed in an FDA-compliant lab for use in our stem cell treatments. This means the collection process is entirely noninvasive to the baby and mother. These stem cells are then put through thorough testing for efficacy and safety.
What Kind of Joint Issues Can Stem Cell Therapies Support?
Osteoarthritis is a common age-related condition that can affect any joint, but most may notice it in their hips, knees, and shoulders. Stem cells can differentiate into the components necessary for cartilage regeneration when injected into the intra-articular space.
Joint injuries such as collateral ligament or meniscal tears in the knee are also ones that can benefit from stem cell therapies. While many collateral ligament injuries are treated conservatively, the healing process can span months. With stem cell treatments, healing time can quicken, and the healed tissue is closer to the native ligament tissue than if left to heal on its own. This can reduce the risks of reinjury and uncomfortable chronic remnant symptoms.
Other joint injuries that benefit from stem cell therapy range from shoulders to ankles. Arthritis, chronic inflammation or reinjury, or acute injury can all take a toll on quality of life and overall mobility. Over time, these effects can even increase the risk of falling and having a major hospitalization.
