Conventional pain treatments have been very good at reducing pain by masking discomfort in a band aid fashion with oral or injected medications like steroids, narcotics, or NSAIDs. These therapies unfortunately do not fix the underlying problem.

Fixing Tissue Injury

So how is the condition actually repaired, whether its shoulder/knee/hip/ankle arthritis, back or neck pain, golfers or tennis elbow, rotator cuff tendonitis or a ligament injury?

Regenerative Medicine with the Illinois Pain Network has the potential to restore anatomy with stem cells, growth factors and platelets to facilitate a healing response in ones own body.

Stem Cells are like a blank slate and may differentiate into any number of cell types for tissue regeneration. This is in large part dependent on the environment in which they are placed.

Illinois Stem Cell Procedures

Stem cell injection treatments include:

These are all minimally invasive, same day, low risk, outpatient procedures. The treatments may be partially covered by insurance.
