How Autologous Biologics Therapy Can Reduce Your Chronic Pain

The prevalence of chronic pain among adults in the United States is nothing short of staggering — one in five report ongoing problems with pain, and 8% report high-impact pain that prevents them from living life to the fullest. 

Until recently, solutions were often invasive or pharmaceutical — approaches that carry no small amount of risk. Today, we have an alternative that taps the amazing power of the human body to heal itself — autologous biologics.

At Alternative Disc Therapy, Dr. Warren J. Bleiweiss and our team specialize in regenerative medicine, an approach to healing that encourages our bodies to do what they do best — heal and repair on a cellular level. As part of our regenerative medicine, we offer autologous biologics treatments, which are helping many of our patients finally gain the upper hand on chronic pain.

Here’s a look at how our autologous biologics may be able to reduce your chronic pain.

The power from within

Autologous biologics are best described as master cells — the cells upon which most other cells are formed. That’s because autologous biologics are what we refer to as “undifferentiated,” which means they have the unique ability to become other cell types and then multiply indefinitely as that cell. For example, during embryonic development, autologous biologics are at their most powerful as they transform into the cells that are needed to form a new life — from brain cells to skin cells.

As an adult, you still have autologous biologics in your body, but they’re far less numerous and powerful. That said, these cells still play a key role in helping your body to repair and regenerate it’s tissues when needed.

Harnessing the power of autologous biologics

With our autologous biologics, we harvest your own autologous biologics from your bone marrow and concentrate and redirect them into areas of damaged tissue to promote faster healing and regeneration. In effect, we’re bypassing Mother Nature to amplify and speed up your natural healing and regenerative response.

Tackling chronic pain

The main reason why our autologous biologics is so successful is because we’re able to go straight to the source of your pain, rather than mask it. Autologous biologics therapy is a fantastic solution for addressing chronic issues of all kinds, including:

• Arthritis
• Degenerative disc disease
• Back and neck pain
• Peripheral neuropathy
• Tendinopathy
• Ligament damage
• Wear-and-tear issues
• Fractures

Autologous biologics can also help with old injuries that never quite healed properly, or it can accelerate recovery after surgery.

Truth be told, we’re only scratching the surface of the potential of autologous biologics, but its orthopedic applications are already showing incredible promise. Thanks to autologous biologics therapy, we’re able to get our patients back to an active and healthy lifestyle.
