Stem cell therapy is completely safe and FDA cleared.<\/p>\n<p>The process of stem cell therapy is pretty quick and noninvasive. You don\u2019t need a lot of preparation in advance, but you may want to halt the use of aspirin products and certain supplements, such as vitamin E and fish oil, a few weeks prior to treatment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The injections take just 10-20 minutes<\/strong>. We clean and prep the specific injection points, depending on the issue to be treated. For example, if you\u2019re being treated for knee joint pain, you\u2019ll receive injections specifically at the knee. This expedites stem cell migration to the tissue that needs it most.<\/p>\n<p>After therapy, you\u2019ll reduce or stop <strong>anti-inflammatory<\/strong> medications for 1-2 weeks. You should also refrain from high-impact activity for a couple months. You won\u2019t have to worry about healing from incisions and blood loss, however, because the procedure is minimally invasive. You can resume stretching and light exercises about three weeks after stem cell injections. <strong>At 4-5 weeks post injections<\/strong>, you can do more aggressive stretching and light weight training, as long as they don\u2019t cause pain.<\/p>\n<p>By the second month post therapy, you should be cleared for your regular workout routine and any athletic activities. Of course, everyone responds slightly differently to the therapy, so we\u2019ll give you the final OK to get back to everything in your routine whenever we\u2019re sure you\u2019re ready.<\/p>\n<h3>Benefits of stem cell therapy<\/h3>\n<p>Stem cell therapy uses your body\u2019s resources to heal your joint pain. The process is completely natural and carries little risk of infection. Plus, the stem cells are <strong>unspecialized, so it\u2019s unlikely<\/strong> that your body will reject them.<\/p>\n<p>If you have joint or back pain that hasn\u2019t responded successfully to medications, steroid injections, or physical therapy, then stem cell therapy can be a viable alternative. The treatment works well to help weekend warriors continue to pursue their love of athletics and to help serious athletes get back into the game.<\/p>\n<p>If you suffer from osteoarthritis and find it interferes with your daily activities, stem cell therapy can help restore damaged cartilage and reduce inflammation.<\/p>\n<p>At Leading Edge Medical, we want to help you find relief from joint pain and dysfunction.
