Regenerative therapy
Regenerative therapy is a multidisciplinary approach to development of new products that are intended to repair, replace, or regenerate tissues and organs in patients.
Regenerative therapy has the potential to heal or replace injured tissues damaged by age, disease, or trauma. The body has the capacity to heal itself and return to its normal function. Unfortunately, not everyone has the same regenerative capabilities and organ systems as an average healthy adult.
People suffering from autoimmune diseases and chronic conditions, such as osteoarthritis, diabetes, and rheumatic arthritis, often experience a lack of regenerative capabilities causing them to experience long-term pain and debilitation.
Regenerative therapy allows the body's innate healing and repair mechanisms to perform. With the introduction of materials, living cells, or growth factors replaces lost tissue to restore itself to healthy functionality. The use of biomaterials and regenerative medicine in pain management is showing exciting progress in improving the effectiveness of conventional pharmacotherapy and as novel non-pharmacological therapy for chronic pain caused by degenerative diseases.
