Six Years of Shoulder Arthritis Pain Relief after Single Treatment with Stem Cells

Regenerative Orthopedic Case of the Week: Six years of complete shoulder arthritis pain relief after single treatment with stem cells from her own fat tissue!
Karen came to see me in 2017 with right shoulder pain. In 2011, she had shoulder surgery because of multiple shoulder dislocations. She had developed gradually progressive pain with use over 2016 and 2017. She complained of moderate pain with reaching up and back, and she had pain at night in bed. After discussing treatment options, she decided to proceed with fat tissue stem cell treatment.
Within a few weeks, her pain and function had significantly improved. She has been essentially pain free with use of her shoulder for 6 years since treatment!! Six months ago, she started having some recurrent pain. She is now desiring to repeat stem cell treatment.
Come see what regenerative orthopedics can do for you!
I’ve been performing regenerative treatments since 2007.
