ORTHOBIOLOGICS IN TEMPE ARIZONA

Orthobiologics can offer a more natural & biologically fitting solution for fixing injuries in muscles and bones.

Orthobiologics is a rapidly evolving field that involves the use of biological materials and techniques to enhance the healing and repair of musculoskeletal injuries. This can include the use of growth factors, stem cells, and other biologic agents to promote the regeneration of bone, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments.

Orthobiologics are being increasingly used in the field of orthopedic surgery, sports medicine, and rehabilitation.

Traditional approaches, including surgical interventions and pharmaceutical treatments, often come with invasive procedures and carry the potential for significant side effects. In contrast, orthobiologics harness the body's natural healing mechanisms to promote the repair and regeneration of damaged tissue, offering a less invasive alternative for patients.Orthobiologics is a field of regenerative medicine that focuses on harnessing the body's natural ability to heal itself. Through the use of biological substances, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), stem cells, and growth factors, orthobiologics aims to stimulate the healing process and promote tissue repair. These treatments are commonly used in orthopedic medicine to address musculoskeletal injuries, arthritis, and other degenerative conditions. Orthobiologics offers a promising alternative to traditional surgical interventions, providing patients with potential for faster recovery and reduced reliance on medications. Despite ongoing research to further refine its applications, orthobiologics presents an exciting frontier in advancing patient care and enhancing overall quality of life.

There are a wide variety of orthobiologic therapies that are currently being studied and used in clinical practice.

Platelet Plasma (P.R.P.)

PRP is a concentrated solution of platelets that are obtained from the patient's own blood. These platelets contain growth factors that can promote the healing of soft tissue injuries, such as tendinitis and ligament sprains.

Exosome Therapy

Stem cells are immature cells that have the ability to differentiate into various types of cells, including bone and cartilage. Stem cell therapy involves the injection of stem cells into the site of an injury to promote the regeneration of damaged tissue.

Growth Factor Therapy

Growth factors are proteins that help tissues grow and heal naturally. We utilize growth factors include the use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP) for the treatment of spinal fractures and other bone injuries.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Great conversation with the PA that went over both medical and everyday treatment possibilities for an injury.
Couldn’t have been more helpful and
would recommend this practice to anyone.”

Orthobiologics F.A.Q.

In recent years, orthobiologics have garnered widespread attention in the realm of sports medicine and orthopedics due to their remarkable potential in facilitating the body's innate healing mechanisms. Consequently, numerous patients find themselves inquisitive about this pioneering therapeutic avenue. To cater to this curiosity, we have meticulously assembled a catalog of commonly asked questions pertaining to orthobiologics, with the aim of furnishing all-encompassing insights and resolution of prevalent apprehensions that individuals might harbor when contemplating this course of treatment.

  • Orthobiologics are substances derived from the body that are used to help injuries and conditions heal more quickly. They can be derived from substances such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone marrow, or other tissue sources. These substances help promote the body's natural healing processes.

  • Orthobiologics are commonly used to treat injuries and conditions affecting the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. This can include conditions such as tendonitis, ligament injuries, osteoarthritis, and other musculoskeletal injuries.

  • Orthobiologics can be administered through injections directly into the affected area. The specific method and frequency of administration will depend on the individual's condition and the type of orthobiologic being used.

  • Orthobiologics are derived from the patient's own body or from donor sources and are generally considered safe. As with any medical treatment, there are potential risks and side effects, which will be thoroughly discussed with the patient prior to treatment.

  • The success of orthobiologics can vary depending on the individual's condition, overall health, and other factors. Many patients experience positive outcomes and improvements in their symptoms after undergoing orthobiologic treatment.

  • Coverage for orthobiologic treatment can vary depending on the specific type of treatment, the patient's insurance plan, and the reason for treatment. Our team can work with patients to determine insurance coverage and explore alternative payment options if necessary.

  • Patients interested in orthobiologic treatment should schedule a consultation with our qualified orthopedic sports medicine physician. During the consultation, the physician will evaluate the patient's condition, discuss treatment options, and answer any questions to help the patient make an informed decision.
