REGENERATIVE MEDICINE
Decades of transplant success and
research have led to the development of
new techniques to aid self-healing.
One of the most fascinating things about
the human body is its ability to heal
itself. That cut to your skin you got
in the kitchen? A week or two later and it's
completely gone and forgotten. Broken bones mend themselves—sure,
a cast will help stabilize things, but it's your own body that performs
the seemingly magical trick of returning things to their normal state.
Regenerative medicine seeks to support
the body in repairing and restoring
its own tissues to a healthy state. The
use of regenerative medical therapies
has grown out of the development and
advancement of transplant surgeries
over decades of success. Studying the
mechanisms behind the body's acceptance
of transplanted tissues has led
to exciting new therapies that can help
stimulate the body's own growth and
healing responses.
From prenatal surgical techniques to
treatments for numerous degenerative
conditions, regenerative medicine therapies
are used to induce the body to enact
self-healing activity. Advancements in
patient care across a varied range of specialties
offer new solutions to achieving
optimal health and well-being. We seek
to restore lost function due to aging, disease,
injury or other degenerative causes
with these healing techniques.
Researchers have examined the many
ways in which our immune systems and
inflammation-related mechanisms interact.
For degenerative conditions, including
musculoskeletal injuries and joint
pain and damage, regenerative therapies
can enhance a healthier supportive
environment in affected areas. Joint
stiffening from scar tissue due to injury
or surgery and nerve cell regrowth are a
few of the other areas in which regenerative
therapy can stimulate improvement.
Regenerative medicine is an effective
tool to aid healing and relieve pain.
