Background. As we age, it seems inevitable that eventually our joints will wear out and begin to fail us. Years spent walking and standing in the course of our professional careers and maintaining an active lifestyle puts an enormous strain on the body’s joints, especially the knees and hips. While…
As professional and collegiate-level football programs are gearing up for the beginning of the 2018 regular season, it seems appropriate to talk about sports-related injuries. Anyone who faithfully follows their favorite team hoping for a chance at the playoffs knows the anguish when one of the star players is sidelined…
What is Tinnitus? Tinnitus is a common problem that, in different forms, affects around 20% of the population. It manifests as a perception of a ringing, buzzing, whistling or roaring noise, often of high-pitched or variable quality, in the head, or in one or both ears. It may be fleeting,…
Degenerative Disc Disease Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD), as the name implies, refers to a condition characterized by pain and possible radiating weakness/numbness stemming from the degeneration or break down of a spinal disc, impinging on the nerve(s). This disease occurs when an intervertebral disc loses its integrity and its ability…
Autism as a Neural Development Disorder Autism is classified as a disorder of neural development and exists as part of a wider “Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)” of non-specific and overlapping neurological development conditions. It is equally common in all races and all nationalities, though it is three to four times…
Throughout our series of informative blogs, we have focused on a variety of diseases and conditions which have been effectively managed utilizing SVF (Stromal Vascular Fraction) derived from the patient’s own adipose tissue. This multipotent “cellular soup” has been used for almost 50 years throughout the world, initially in research…
In our recent series of blogs and articles, we have highlighted specific diseases and conditions that were effectively managed using Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) or its derivative component adipose-derived stem cells. For more information on how these multipotent regenerative agents of change impact the health outcomes of patients with osteoarthritis,…
Platelet-Rich Plasma and Mesenchymal Stem Cells A lot of research, as well as quite a few of our blogs, have been dedicated to the healing power of Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF), a multipotent “gumbo” of regenerative cell types, which supercharges the healing process, initiating repair and healing and restoring damaged…
Although there was a time when the mention of “stem cells” brought to mind procedures and practices involving neonatal cell extraction and painful bone marrow surgeries, regenerative medicine researchers have provided a strong case for adult stem cells in the treatment of disease. In fact, for use in the majority…
