Chapters

If we're using your body's ability to heal itself to do that, then why not make you as healthy as we possibly can while we're doing it? Like I said, we don't do a single treatment. Having multiple treatments may help the joint more. So our minimum treatment is typically two injections. And if we do bone marrow, we'll oftentimes do PRP and then a bone marrow injection. PRP can kind of calm down the inflammation in the joint, really get everything settled down. Then we do the more regenerative type therapy like with the bone marrow. And then we also add red light laser therapy. So our MLS laser, that improves the the blood supply to a tissue, it lessens inflammation by some mechanisms that the light interacts with your cells, and then it also increases the amount of material that the cells we put in those areas release. We're doing multiple things to make our injections more effective. If we're using your body's ability to heal itself to do that, then why not make you as healthy as we possibly can while we're doing it?
