The physicians at Summit Spine & Joint Centers have been practicing regenerative medicine for years and together have helped thousands of Atlanta patients live pain-free. Whether you are an elite athlete, weekend warrior or you simply want to stop living in pain, we can help.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
In this treatment, we use the patient’s own concentrated platelet cells to help regenerate tissue, reduce inflammation and restore function. This therapy helps regenerate cartilage in joints and ligaments, and reduces inflammation caused by injury and osteoarthritis, relieving pain and improving function. PRP therapy can be beneficial in joints such as knees, hips, shoulders and others. There’s a very low chance of side effects because this treatment uses the patient’s own cells. The cells are injected into the affected areas under fluoroscopic (x-ray) and ultrasound guidance by our highly trained physicians.
Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cells are master cells, meaning they are blank slates that can grow to become different types of cells based on their surroundings. These undifferentiated cells are injected into degenerated areas to help regrow normal tissues and heal bones, ligaments and tendons. This therapy can also help patients avoid surgery and the risks involved. The stem cells are injected into joints and other degenerated tissues under fluoroscopic (x-ray) and ultrasound guidance by our highly trained physicians.
