New study from American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons shows PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) more effective Vs cortisone for plantar fasciitis/heel pain

Chronic plantar fasciitis is commonly diagnosed in patients, but can be a difficult condition to treat successfully. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is the injection of concentrated platelets that is abundant with cytokines (immunomodulation agents) and other growth elements. PRP injection was compared to cortisone injection when treating severe cases of plantar fasciitis that are resistant … Continue reading New study from American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons shows PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) more effective Vs cortisone for plantar fasciitis/heel pain →

The Orthobiologic Institute (TOBI) and The Orthohealing Center hosts 4 day Regenerative Medicine Intensive featuring Dr John Lyftgoft from New Zealand & Dr Steven Sampson on Neural Prolotherapy and Ultrasound guided Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections.

Recently we hosted 18 Physicians from 6 countries to enhance our understanding & skill set with regenerative orthopedic procedures including Neural Prolotherapy & Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). After learning about Dr Lyftgoft’s breakthrough; that simple injections of sterile water (saline) and Dextrose (sugar) beneath the skin surface can provide immediate pain relief, we made arrangements … Continue reading The Orthobiologic Institute (TOBI) and The Orthohealing Center hosts 4 day Regenerative Medicine Intensive featuring Dr John Lyftgoft from New Zealand & Dr Steven Sampson on Neural Prolotherapy and Ultrasound guided Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections. →

Utilizing our own body’s regenerative cells to heal is less controversial and likely more effective than embryonic cells experts say…

About 15 years ago you might remember a storm around the idea of embryonic stem cells and the presidential election. During the debates, there lacked a distinction between utilizing our own body’s regenerative cells (Autologous Stem cells) Vs those from a fetus (Embryonic Stem cells) . This association is still a problem and many people … Continue reading Utilizing our own body’s regenerative cells to heal is less controversial and likely more effective than embryonic cells experts say… →

Using Radiofrequency Ablation to treat SI Joint Pain featured in this month’s “Pain Pathways” Magazine

Sacroiliac (SI) joint pain afflicts millions of Americans every year, and is thought to be the main culprit in up to 30% of chronic back pain sufferers. It continues to be widely underdiagnosed by many physicians in part because MRIs of the low back typically do not focus on this area and therefore show nothing … Continue reading Using Radiofrequency Ablation to treat SI Joint Pain featured in this month’s “Pain Pathways” Magazine →

New Study Finds Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) May Combat Degenerative Disease of the Intervertebral Discs of the Spine

Our spines consist of intervertebral discs which lie in-between the vertebrae, acting like gelatinous “shock-absorbers”. As we age, the annulus fibrosus, which is the strong outer ring of these discs, weakens and defects in the ring can cause a disc herniation, leading to low back pain and lower extremity pain. A new study shows promise … Continue reading New Study Finds Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) May Combat Degenerative Disease of the Intervertebral Discs of the Spine →

“Rheumatology” Journal Evaluates PRP Platelet-Rich Plasma Injections for Hip Osteoarthritis

40 patients affected by severe hip osteoarthritis were included in the study which was designed to assess the safety and symptomatic changes of PRP injections for hip arthritis. Each patient received three intra-articular injections of PRP, which were administered once a week. Statistically significant reductions in pain scores were reported at 7 weeks and 6 … Continue reading “Rheumatology” Journal Evaluates PRP Platelet-Rich Plasma Injections for Hip Osteoarthritis →
