Messenger Signaling Cell Therapy for Knee Conditions – Louisville, KY
“Get back on your feet and out and about, in no time”
Of all bodily ailments, nothing is more damaging and crippling than persistent knee pain. Your knees are made up of ligaments, bone, fluid and cartilage. The tendons and muscles work in harmony to make the knee joint move and help you walk. Thus, any damage to the ligaments or cartilage by way of injury or disease (such as osteoarthritis), can cause severe pain and difficulty walking.
At Kentuckiana integrative Medicine of Jeffersonville near Louisville, Kentucky, we offer a range of alternate therapeutic procedures, including PRP and Messenger Signaling Cell therapy, to help alleviate knee conditions such as knee osteoarthritis, meniscus tears, tendon & ligament injuries, overuse conditions and other degenerative conditions without relying on complex surgical procedures or medication. Combining platelet-rich plasma injections (PRP) and messenger signaling cells injections, we offer non-surgical therapies/procedures that can dramatically improve knee function and reduce or eliminate pain. See what Mayo Clinic says about Messenger Signaling Cells: messenger signaling cell therapy.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Approach
According to a Clinical Journal of Sports Medicine report, PRP therapy has great potential for treating knee osteoarthritis. About 73% of the patients treated with PRP therapy showed a delay in the progress of osteoarthritis and did not need total knee replacements.
This treatment is non-invasive and harnesses your body’s natural healing potential to combat knee conditions. Our team of qualified and experienced physicians are able to extract a sample of your blood. The blood sample is broken down to its plasma content, which contains the healing factors and growth factors that are necessary for tissue regeneration and damage repair within the body.
Using modern centrifuging techniques, the platelet-rich plasma yield is increased exponentially. The resulting solution rich in growth factors is injected directly into the affected area in and around the knee. The PRP or messenger signaling cells go to work immediately, repairing the damaged knee joint.
Why Use Messenger Signaling Cells and PRP to Treat Knee Pain?
Messenger Signaling Cell transplant: Messenger Signaling Cells and PRP are two of the safest and most advanced approaches for treating various injuries and diseases, such as labral tears, rotator cuff tears, and hip bursitis within the human body. Under the Messenger Signaling Cell approach, the Messenger Signaling Cells that promote musculoskeletal healing (mainly cartilage, tendons, and bones), found in the bone marrow, are extracted, processed, and injected into the affected area. Both of these non-surgical treatment options are effective and budget-friendly.
Administration of PRP or Messenger Signaling Cells only takes a matter of minutes, and visible improvement in knee joint movement and reduction in pain can be observed within the first few days. Patients recovering from meniscus tears can quickly recover when injected with PRP, compared to the lengthy and exhaustive period of post-surgical rehabilitation.
PRP and Messenger Signaling Cell patients are more likely to exhibit greater mobility and experience less knee pain than surgical patients. Furthermore, the treatment requires extracting cells from the patient’s body and reinserting them into another part of the body – rendering it safe, reliable, and free from contagious infections.
