The team at Source Healthcare provides customized treatment plans to address the root cause of your leg pain while also alleviating your discomfort. For example, if you have an injury, your doctor may recommend:
- Immobilization
- Regenerative medicine such as stem cell therapy or platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
- Anti-inflammatory medications
- Physical therapy
The doctors can also help you implement lifestyle adjustments to reduce your leg pain. For example, they may recommend that you change your diet and exercise habits to lose weight. Maintaining a healthy weight reduces the physical stress on your legs and can also improve your circulation.
Source Healthcare is the preferred destination for innovative treatments such as stem-cell therapy and PRP (platelet-rich plasma). Stem cells are a type of special cells that can develop into different specialized cells such as brain cells or muscle cells. In adults, stem cells can be sourced from the bone marrow, fat tissue, or from the circulating blood. These cells have active biological components that contribute to healing by regenerating affected tissues.
At Source Healthcare, our interventional specialists isolate stem cells and administer them using real-time imaging ( fluoroscopy or ultrasound).
PRP is isolated from the patient’s blood by drawing a small sample and centrifuging it to separate the plasma rich component. PRP is injected into the affected area to boost the production of wound healing proteins, growth factors, and other components that enhance the recovery of affected tissues.
