Regenerative Medicine for Sports Injuries
Regenerative medicine is a branch of medicine that deals with the process of manufacturing functional and living tissues to replace or repair tissue or organ function lost due to damage, disease, age, or congenital deformities by using biological materials obtained from the body.
Rehabilitation Exercises
Rehabilitation is a treatment method designed to facilitate recovery after a serious injury, illness or surgery. It is aimed at restoring the physical, sensory, intellectual, psychological and social function of the patient.
Pre-Surgical Rehabilitation
Pre-surgical rehabilitation or “prehab” is a preparative exercise program prior to surgery that helps improve overall surgical outcomes. It helps with post-surgical pain management, minimizing the hospital stay and decreasing complications associated with surgery. Prehab is common and necessary for orthopedic patients undergoing joint replacement procedures.
Hip Strengthening Exercises for Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis, also called degenerative joint disease, is the most common form of arthritis. It occurs most often in the elderly. This disease affects the tissue covering the ends of bones in a joint called cartilage. In osteoarthritis, the cartilage becomes damaged and worn out, causing pain, swelling, stiffness, and restricted movement in the affected joint. Although osteoarthritis may affect various joints including the hips, knees, hands, and spine, the hip joint is most commonly affected.
Knee Strengthening Exercises for Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is also called degenerative joint disease and is the most common type of arthritis, occurring most often in the elderly. This disease affects the cartilage, the tissue that cushions and protects the ends of bones in a joint. With osteoarthritis, the cartilage starts to wear away over time. In extreme cases, the cartilage can completely wear away, leaving nothing to protect the bones in a joint, causing bone-on-bone contact. Osteoarthritis of the knee results in pain, swelling, stiffness, and limited range of motion of the joint (the ability to freely move and bend a joint).
Hip Strengthening Exercises for Trochanteric Pain
Osteoarthritis is also called degenerative joint disease and is the most common type of arthritis, occurring most often in the elderly. This disease affects the cartilage, the tissue that cushions and protects the ends of bones in a joint. With osteoarthritis, the cartilage starts to wear away over time. In extreme cases, the cartilage can completely wear away, leaving nothing to protect the bones in a joint, causing bone-on-bone contact. Osteoarthritis of the knee results in pain, swelling, stiffness, and limited range of motion of the joint (the ability to freely move and bend a joint).
Knee Strengthening Exercises for Meniscal Tears
A meniscal tear is a tear that occurs in the cartilage of the knee. The meniscus is a small, "C" shaped piece of cartilage in the knee joint. Each knee has two menisci, the medial meniscus on the inner aspect of the knee and the lateral meniscus on the outer aspect of the knee. The medial and lateral menisci provide a cushion between the thigh bone (femur) and shin bone (tibia) and act as shock absorbers to stabilize the knee joint.
Post-op Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is a treatment method designed to facilitate recovery after a serious injury, illness, or surgery. It is aimed at restoring the physical, sensory, intellectual, psychological, and social functions of the patient.
