PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)
A treatment prepared from your own blood that delivers a concentrated platelet solution to a targeted area to support healing and reduce irritation in selected conditions.
Stem Cell Therapy
A regenerative option using cells derived from your own tissue in selected cases where supporting tissue repair and symptom control may be appropriate. Evidence is evolving and suitability is assessed carefully.
Ozone Therapy
A specialist treatment used in selected settings where ozone oxygen mixtures are applied locally. Evidence and availability vary and your consultant will discuss potential benefits limitations and suitability.
Why Specialist Assessment Matters
Regenerative treatments are highly diagnosis dependent. The same symptom can arise from different structures such as tendon ligament joint cartilage nerve irritation or muscle driven pain. Treating the wrong source can lead to limited benefit. Specialist assessment helps identify the most likely pain generator and determines whether a regenerative option is appropriate or whether another approach is more suitable.
A consultant led approach also ensures realistic expectations. Some treatments may take weeks to months to show change because they aim to support biological processes rather than provide immediate numbing effects. Clear planning helps you understand likely timelines follow up and how rehabilitation supports outcomes.
Consultant Led Assessment and Diagnosis
Your assessment typically includes:
• Detailed review of symptoms medical history and activity goals
• Physical examination of movement strength and joint or tendon function
• Review of prior imaging such as MRI ultrasound or X ray where relevant
• Discussion of previous treatments and response patterns
• Consideration of factors that affect healing such as smoking diabetes sleep and activity load
Where appropriate your consultant may recommend updated imaging or diagnostic injections to confirm the source of symptoms before recommending regenerative treatment.
Targeted Evidence Based Options
Regenerative medicine is not one single treatment. Options are selected based on diagnosis and clinical judgement. Your consultant may discuss:
• PRP for selected tendon joint or soft tissue problems
• Stem cell based approaches in selected cases where appropriate and compliant with relevant standards
• Ozone therapy in selected scenarios where it may be considered and where risks and limitations are understood
Rehabilitation is often an important part of the plan. A structured approach that includes pacing physiotherapy and strengthening can help protect the treated area and support longer term improvement.
Focused on Long Term Function
The aim is not only symptom reduction but also improved movement confidence and return to activity. Your plan may include:
• A staged return to activity and load management
• Physiotherapy and strengthening progression
• Follow up review to track symptom change and function
• Medication review where helpful
• Strategies to reduce flare ups and support consistent recovery
