Dr. Joe Ruane, Medical Director of McConnell Spine, Sport & Joint Physicians is pleased to bring mesnechymal stem cell therapy, also known as cellular medicine or orthobiologic therapy, to the McConnell Spine, Sport & Joint Center.

McConnell Spine, Sport & Joint Physicians were among the first in the area to offer platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, and will be offering stem-cell treatments as the next optioin in the rapidly expanding field of regenerative orthopedic medicine. This treatment option is for active adults who are no longer find relief from traditional treatments, or may be hoping to avoid surgery.

Orthobiologic treatment takes healthy cells from your own body with a high potential to regenerate tissue, and injects the cells into the injured area of your body, enabling your body to better heal itself. Mesenchymal stem cells are the specific cells used in orthopedic treatments. Theses cells have the potential to help your bodys ability to naturally repair muscle, bone, joint and soft tissue.

I have been watching the field of orthobiologics grow and mature for several years, and it is now being offered by reputable providers across the country, Dr. Ruane said. It is considered the future of musculoskeletal medicine and we need to push forward into this exciting area.
