REGENERATIVE ORTHOPEDIC SHOULDER TREATMENTS

Use your own stem cells to accelerate the healing process

Regenerative Medicine Procedures for Rotator Cuff Tears, Shoulder Arthritis, and Other Shoulder Conditions.
Regenerative Medicine procedures are non-surgical injection-based treatments for people suffering from shoulder pain due to common injuries to the shoulder and rotator cuff, Shoulder Labrum, as well as degenerative conditions — ex. shoulder osteoarthritis. These procedures utilize concentrated repair cells that are obtained from your own bone marrow or blood to promote your body’s own natural ability to heal.

Traditional options for patients suffering from these conditions include arthroscopic shoulder surgery to repair tears, or shoulder joint replacement. With both surgeries, months of rehab are required, and the patient must be aware of and fully prepared to take on the risks. Regenerative Medicine procedures are designed to help reduce pain and improve function with precise highly specific image-guided medical procedures to promote the body’s ability to heal itself naturally.

Shoulder Rotator Cuff Tears Treatment

Regenerative Medicine Procedures for Rotator Cuff Tears Using the healing agents from your own body to treat rotator cuff tears, shoulder arthritis, and other common shoulder conditions, Regenerative Medicine provides an alternative to invasive surgeries such as rotator cuff tear surgery, shoulder labrum surgery, acromioplasty, and shoulder replacement. Highly specific, precise, image-guided injections of your own cells and growth factors directly into the injured area promotes your own body’s natural ability to repair. By both mobilizing your body’s own healing mechanisms and eliminating the trauma of surgery and atrophy caused by immobilization, Regenerative Medicine procedures have produced good outcomes in the treatment of rotator cuff tears, and other common shoulder injuries and degenerative conditions like shoulder arthritis.

Stem Cell Therapy Process

Initial Consultation

Initial Consultation

Our expert physicians will meet with you by phone or in-person to review your medical history and will determine if you’re a good candidate for stem cell therapy. If we agree stem cell therapy can help, we’ll schedule your first appointment in our office.

Therapy Solutions

Treatment

In most cases our outpatient treatment takes 2-4 hours and is nearly pain free. You do not have to “go under.” On the day of your procedure, our physicians will collect your stem cells. Fat is obtained from the low back or abdomen, bone marrow is obtained from the back part of the hip. After stem cell collection, you will relax in a private room. Once processed, your stem cells will be injected into the area of need using a highly sophisticated ultrasound instrument with enhanced needle visualization for precise delivery of your stem cells. In some cases, we also administer an IV of your stem cells during treatment to further enhance your body’s natural healing process.

Follow-up Therapy

Follow-up Treatment

There is virtually no recovery time from your stem cell therapy procedure. Most people are back to work the following day.
Physical Therapy - NRO has partnered with several physical therapist providers specifically trained in therapy following regenerative treatments. The combination of regenerative medicine and physical therapy to correct biomechanical imbalances offers patients an empowering way to take control of their lives.
Our medical staff will remain in touch with you during your recovery process to answer questions.

HOW REGENERATIVE MEDICINE WORKS

Effective Bone Marrow Concentrate Treatment

THE POTENCY OF BONE MARROW

Diving deep into the realm of Regenerative Medicine, Bone Marrow Concentrate is laden with stem cells, the body's innate repair agents. While these cells are ever-ready to mend damages, aging or significant injuries might deplete their availability. That's where our treatments step in. We meticulously extract Bone Marrow from the hip's rich region, concentrate the cells, and with cutting-edge imaging guidance, reintroduce them to the injury site.

This not only amplifies the body's natural healing response but offers a broad-spectrum solution for diverse orthopedic challenges. After a thorough assessment of your condition and medical imagery, our physicians will recommend if a bone marrow concentrate or a platelet-based therapy suits your orthopedic needs best.

Effective PRP Procedures

FOCUS ON PLATELET RICH PLASMA & LYSATE

Harnessing the regenerative potential of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet Lysate, we tap into your blood's intrinsic growth factors, boosting your body's repair mechanism. While PRP treatments are gaining recognition—courtesy of endorsements from pro athletes—it's their rejuvenating effect on repair cells that's groundbreaking. These platelet infusions supercharge the cells, accelerating the healing trajectory.

At Kellum Stem Cell Institute, our PRP procedures are executed with unparalleled precision using state-of-the-art imaging. Compared to standard PRP offerings, our Advanced Platelet Procedures stand out, delivering higher concentration and purity, maximizing the natural healing response. From mild arthritis, spinal ailments, soft tissue injuries to nerve surroundings, platelet procedures are versatile.
