Regenerative Therapy is a process which utilizes the body's own healing capability, to fix the damage done by diseases, injuries or infections. How? Regenerative cellular therapy encourages renewed healthy cell growth, by using your own stem cells from either bone marrow or adipose fat tissue. These stem cells that have been injected, transform to form new specific cells of the required type.
As the name implies, regenerative cell therapy works on the cellular level to rebuild damaged/destroyed cells. Stem cells are unformed, immature cells your body produces to replenish old or injured cells. They are found in your bone marrow, from where its released into the bloodstream. The stem cells go to where your body is affected, here they grow into specific cells, as required, to heal the wound. This type of healing occurs throughout your lifetime.
Unfortunately, as you age your body loses the ability to deliver the stem cells to where they're needed. The backbone of regenerative cell therapy, simply aids the natural process by injecting your stem cells to where it is required.
The process for acquiring the cells for regenerative therapy is different for each type, but the application of the therapy is a simple, straight-forward process no matter the cell type.
After the regenerative cells have been injected, the patient is usually able to go home immediately. While physicians and surgeons often suggest avoiding any strenuous activity for a few days, it’s possible to go back to regular day-to-day activities right away. Some irritation, soreness, bruising, or other minor discomforts might be present for a few days, but generally there are very few side effects of regenerative therapy.
Injected regenerative cells stimulate the healing and the growth of new tissue. For instance, in degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis, this may mean the growth of new cartilage around joints. With torn muscles or ligaments, regenerative therapy supports the growth of new tissues to heal the injury.
