Chronic pain can be exhausting, impacting everything from your ability to move comfortably to enjoying the things you love. It can interfere with work, relationships, and life in general. While many people treat their pain with surgical treatments, others want to avoid the risks of invasive procedures. So what’s the alternative?
Michigan Integrative Health offers regenerative medicine as a different approach. We want to provide natural solutions that target the root causes of your pain. If you deal with chronic pain, arthritis, or bone-on-bone issues, we aim to help you get better without relying on surgery.
Our qualified physicians and medical professionals are here to support you on your path to relief. We are located in Shelby Township, Michigan, and serve the Metro Detroit area, Ohio, and Canada.
What Is Regenerative Medicine?
Regenerative medicine refers to treatment methods that use your body’s natural healing processes to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and restore function.
Unlike traditional treatments that may mask symptoms with medication, regenerative medicine works on the underlying causes of pain. This approach is particularly beneficial for those dealing with long-term, degenerative conditions who wish to avoid surgery. It’s ultimately a less invasive option that encourages long-term healing.
Popular Regenerative Medicine Solutions
Regenerative medicine may include:
- Manual Muscle Work: We focus on restoring joint stability by targeting muscles that have lost proper tone or coordination. By applying specific pressure to these muscles, we can help improve their function, reduce pain, and increase mobility without the need for medication or surgery.
- Biologic Injections: Using natural substances from your own blood or other sources, biologic injections help repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and provide relief from chronic pain. This treatment supports the body’s natural healing process.
Benefits of Regenerative Medicine
Regenerative medicine at Michigan Integrative Health takes advantage of your body’s ability to heal itself. Here’s how our care can make a difference:
- Non-surgical, drug-free methods for managing chronic pain and degenerative conditions like arthritis.
- Only one to four office visits for most patients, depending on their condition.
- Focuses on the cause, not just symptoms, for long-term improvement.
- Personalized care plans to give you the best care for your condition.
Conditions Treated With Regenerative Medicine
Our regenerative medicine services can address chronic pain conditions like:
- Joint Pain: Whether you’re experiencing back, neck, knee, shoulder, hip, or other joint discomfort, our treatments can provide relief and improve mobility.
- Muscle and Tendon Injuries: We treat soft tissue injuries that may not respond well to conventional therapies, helping to restore strength and function.
- Arthritis and Inflammation: For those dealing with arthritis or chronic inflammation, regenerative medicine offers a way to reduce pain and improve joint health without the need for surgery.
What to Expect in Your First Appointment
During your first visit, we’ll conduct a physical assessment and may use imaging, like X-rays, to get a clear understanding of your condition and pain levels. This exam will help determine if you’re a candidate for our drug-free, non-surgical treatments.
We’ll also discuss your symptoms and medical history to identify the best approach for your care. By the end of the assessment, we expect to see either a decrease in pain, improved range of motion, or increased strength in the tested area, which will guide us in developing your treatment plan.
