No personal experience No personal experience, but as a medical doctor who's had his own share of sports-related injuries (I guess you could call it arthritis, but I don't, yet), I've been interested in early reports in the use of platelet rich plasma for tendinitis and knee arthritis. HOWEVER no good quality study has ever proven it works. If regenexx goes beyong PRP to actual stem cells this might be different, but I'd wait to see the evidence. Knee arthritis is a common condition and therefore an intervention like this is relatively easy to study in a randomised controlled fashion.

I had great pain relief in my L knee… I had great pain relief in my L knee for approximately 5 months. I think my joint inflammation after time destroyed my stem cells. Whatever destructive process caused my bone on bone arthritis, persisted. I think the key is to decrease the inflammation prior to the stem cell therapy. I don't think more stem cells will be helpful. I still think that it was worth trying initially

The Regenexx® treatments are worth… The Regenexx® treatments are worth every penny. I wish insurers would see the value of this non-surgical option. The Regenexx doctors I worked with in Las Vegas, NV were very honest about expected outcomes...due to years of sports injuries, 2 spinal areas are pretty much 'toast' & are not good candidates for stem cell treatment but they were treatable with platelets. I got a year of relief from a treatment that took 1/2 a day of non-surgical in-office treatment... It works for me.

I feel very lucky I have been very pleased with my relationship with Regenexx. Both the staff in Colorado and Grand Cayman are outstanding. Dr. Centeno has made a huge impact on improving my knee pain and indirectly has changed my life by introducing me to the Stem Cell Boost that has resulted in me no longer taking asthma medication. I am so happy I learned about Regenexx!
