What is Regenerative Medicine?

Regenerative medicine is the process of creating living, functional tissues to repair or replace tissue or organ function lost due to age, disease, damage, or congenital defects.

Who is a candidate?

Patients suffering from tennis/golfers elbow, osteoarthritis, meniscus tears, hip bursitis, plantar fasciitis, and rotator cuff tendinitis are just a few examples of conditions that can be treated and/or improved by regenerative medicine.

What are my options?

JCMG offers Predictive Biotech, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), and BioBurst Rejuv.

Predictive Biotech

AmnioCyte, AmnioCyte Plus, PolyCyte, CoreCyte

Processed to preserve the cytokines, growth factors, proteins, and more in amniotic fluid, amniotic membrane, and/or umbilical cord tissue for homologous use.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

Platelets are best known for their importance in clotting blood. Platelets also contain hundreds of proteins called growth factorswhich are very important in the healing of injuries. PRP is plasma with many more platelets than what is typically found in blood. PRP is done with the patient’s own blood.

BioBurst Rejuv

A cryopreserved umbilical cord blood (UCB) cellular allograft that is a rich source of extracellular growth factors and cytokines that offers regenerative support for soft tissue/ligament conditions. Cells are donated from healthy, disease free donors during healthy planned births.

What are the advantages to using umbilical cord tissue and amniotic fluid allografts?

  • Limited risk of rejection
  • Shorter procedure times
  • Noninvasive
  • Less downtime after treatment

 

90% of procedures are successful. Patients experience reduction in pain and increases in range of motion without surgery.

What are my payment options?
