Arthritis and cartilage degeneration are among the leading causes of chronic joint pain and disability, affecting over 32.5 million adults in the U.S. Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and joint injuries progressively wear down cartilage, leading to pain, stiffness, and loss of mobility. Traditional treatments such as pain medications, steroid injections, and joint replacement surgery often offer only temporary relief without addressing the underlying cause of cartilage damage.
At OrthoGen Health, we specialize in stem cell therapy for arthritis and cartilage repair, using the body’s natural healing properties to regenerate cartilage, reduce inflammation, and restore joint function. Our regenerative treatments offer an innovative alternative to surgery, helping patients regain mobility and long-term comfort.
“Someone referred me to this place because i had a very bad knee pain which multiple other doctors i visited, told me have to have an open surgery but Dr.James told me can do PRP which is much easier and safer. I thought it worth trying it. After almost 2 years, i still have no pain and i got back to normal life. I am so glad listen to Dr, James and for your info i think he has one of the highest certificates that only a few doctors in the US have it.
He is so kind and acknowledgeable and i definitely recommend anyone who has joint pain before letting others to have any open surgeries which obviously they want nothing but making money.Thanks you for making the life enjoyable for me again.”
How Stem Cell Therapy Supports Cartilage Repair
Cartilage has a limited ability to repair itself, making stem cell therapy a groundbreaking solution for arthritis and joint degeneration. Stem cells stimulate the growth of new cartilage, reduce inflammation, and slow the progression of arthritis.
The Stem Cell Therapy Process for Arthritis:
- Stem Cell Collection: Stem cells are derived from adipose tissue, bone marrow, or amniotic sources, depending on the patient’s needs.
- Processing & Activation: The stem cells are isolated and concentrated to enhance their healing potential.
- Targeted Joint Injection: The stem cells are precisely injected into the affected joint, where they begin repairing damaged cartilage and reducing inflammation.
