Knee Surgery and Knee Replacement Alternative
The Regenexx-Family™ of Knee Surgery Alternatives are breakthrough, non-surgical stem-cell treatments for people suffering from knee pain due to common injuries or other degenerative problems:
If you have encountered an injury to the knee meniscus, ACL or MCL, or have chronic knee pain due to a past injury or osteoarthritis (also known as “degenerative joint disease” or “wear and tear arthritis of the knee”), you may be a good candidate for the Regenexx Procedure.
Traditional options for patients suffering from these issues include arthroscopic knee surgery to repair ligament tears, or total knee joint replacement. With both surgeries, months of rehab are required, and the patient must be aware of and prepared to take on the risks.
As a knee surgery or knee replacement alternative, the Regenexx-SD procedure may help alleviate knee pain and the conditions that cause it with a simple office injection procedure. Patients are encouraged to walk the same day, and most experience little to no down time from the procedure.

The patient was referred to us by his physician and agent to see if stem cells would help his knee. Read More…

Arthroscopic Knee Surgery No Help for Many
A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that up to two-thirds of the time, meniscus tears seen on an MRI may not be causing pain. More on this and other interesting studies on knee surgeries and their complications can be found on our Blog.
