A short promotional/educational YouTube segment in which Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter (Pinnacle Integrative Orthopedics and Sports Medicine) explains orthobiologics: using a patient’s own blood or bone marrow to isolate concentrated platelets for injection into joints or tendons. He frames the treatment as safe, low-risk, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative—capable of improving the joint environment though unlikely to restore severely damaged cartilage. The content positions orthobiologics as a promising future therapy.

Chapters

Here at Pinnacle, we believe that orthobiologics is really the wave of the future. This is a technology where we use your own blood or bone marrow, we isolate out the platelet, and then we inject that ultra concentrated platelet solution into your joint or tendon. This is a very safe procedure. It has a very minimal risk of infection or other complications. There's very low risk of any type of reaction because it is your material and it has a very potent anti inflammatory effect and causes tissue healing and regeneration. And so while it's probably not going to replace the cartilage that's damaged in a very badly arthritic joint, it can very significantly change the environment in a joint.
