Is there a better option than spine surgery to relieve low back pain by arthrosis?
The alternative: helping in natural recovery of body
REGENERA Ortopedia Especializada offers innovative, non-surgical treatments, which use the curative agents of the body to treat spine and neck pain due to common injuries such as degenerative illness of disc, stenosis, ruptured or painful discs, facet injuries, spondylolysis and other degenerative problems related with neck and spine.
Your alternative to spine surgery - Have they told you that steroids epidural injections or invasive surgery are your unique options to treat your back pain? Interventional orthopedics offers a non-surgical alternative which uses your own cells to repair damage.
The problem of placing steroid medicines
Steroid epidurals which place steroid medicines around irritated or inflamed nerves in spine help patients to avoid surgery for some time. Nevertheless, very high dose of steroids may also produce serious secondary effects and, in fact, reducing the capacity of the body to heal, what finally takes to tissue degeneration and accelerates surgery necessity. Spinal fusion surgery is a highly invasive procedure which has a meaningful risk for complications.
Investigation shows that complications are produced in 36% of fusion patients, meanwhile 76% still require narcotics for pain after their surgery recovery. Surgical patients also lose three times more work than those who are not subjected to surgery. A simple injection of your own cells, on the contrary, has less than 0,1% of risk, meanwhile the results of a fusion of spine cannot be reversed and are classified as a procedure with high risk with a low guarantee of success.
A new approach: interventional orthopedics
In REGENERA we have a new approach for orthopedic care which we call interventional orthopedics. This approach implies use of image guide (fluoroscopy and ultrasound) to precisely place the dose of stem cells or platelets of your body directly where they are necessary in specific articular structure. These cells then work in the site of your injury to grow in new and healthy tissue, a process which only will occur if cells have been exactly placed where they must be to achieve positive results for patient.
This precise approach of orthopedic care cannot be replicated by a surgeon or nurse at consultation office of one chiropractor. Interventional Orthopedics requires thousands of training hours following a process of standardized protocol to become an authorized physician as in REGENERA.
