At PM&R Associates, we specialize in treating patients who have been told there is nothing more that can be done or have already received unsuccessful treatments. We utilize Regenerative Medicine (Cellular Medicine or Cell Therapy), which is the use of your own body to heal itself. Regenerative Medicine is the use of substances, usually from the patient’s own body, to restore or establish normal function. This allows the treatment of damaged tissues and organs by stimulating the body’s own repair mechanisms to functionally heal previously irreparable tissue or organs. Regenerative Medicine shows a biologic response through continued improvement over time, whereas pharmaceutical medicine (the use of medications or drugs) shows a peak response that diminishes over time. The most advanced form of regenerative medicine is the use of Stem Cell Therapy.
