Sports and Musculoskeletal injuries

How can regenerative medicine help?

Injuries to muscle, bone, ligament and tendon, whether caused by an acute trauma, or from long term wear and tear, generally result in a breakdown of tissue. In many cases, the body’s ability to repair this damage can be slow, limited by medical conditions, chronic inflammation, scarring, repeat injuries and so forth. Stem-cell-based regenerative interventions can help the body repair this damage effectively by providing the growth factors and healing cells needed to build new tissue and remodel the area of injury. This contrasts with something like a corticosteroid injection, which generally helps manage pain and reduce inflammation, as opposed to stimulating actual growth, reapair and healing.

How do the the treatments work?

PRP (prolotherapy) and PRF are some of the more common regenerative interventions used for sports injuries. When the plasma is injected into the target tissue, the progenitors and cells contained in the solution begin the process of removing old and damaged cells and building a matrix of new tissue. As this matrix grows, the release of growth factors continues in response to the treatment, and the muscle, bone, ligament, nerve and soft tissues etc. in the area remodel and grow. To enhance tissue development you may be advised to continue normal use, and even gradually increase exercise and use, to further stimulate the modelling of the tissue.

Injuries

Below are some of the more common injuries treated at NuaCell. This list is by no means exhaustive, however what is important to note is that in each case an injury is examined individually before a recommendation is made for any treatment. This will generally involve a physical examination and possibly imaging such as MRI or Xray to properly diagnose the injury and identify the damaged tissue. While these treatments can reduce the need for surgery or other interventions in some cases, a holistic approach needs to be taken, considering all options that may benefit the client.

Client Reviews

Very happy with everything, pain free throughout

Hi I went to see doctor Sam and had a circumision done,
I was very nervous about calling the very first day after a long time of leaving it,
After the first phone call and taking to dr Sam on the phone I felt so relaxed about the hole process, he answered all my questions and over the phone he made a plan,
I went to meet him and had everything done on the same day, and it Was pain free,
The after service is unbelievable he messages to see how your doing and checks that your happy with everything, If I knew how good he was before I went I really wouldn’t have left it go for so long as I did, he really is a top doctor and most of all so friendly and professional,
Thank you again dr Sam for everything.

Quick Resolution

I made contact with Dr. Sam due to a long standing phimosis problem I had. Within just 7 days of initial contact, this problem I have carried with me for many years appears to have been resolved with minimal fuss. I had a partial circumcision procedure carried out. Everything was clearly explained prior to the procedure and I honestly didn’t feel the slightest bit of pain during or after it. I am now almost 72hrs post procedure and everything is running smoothly so far. I would highly recommend Dr. Sam.

Secret to Looking Young

I am touching 80 years of age and I am regularly visiting Nuacell Clinic for the last six years. I am still very active in business and socially and people would never have guessed my real age thanks to the wonderful treatments and attention I get from Dr. Sam and his lovely team. I am regularly told I look in my sixties and I am grateful to know the secret reason for that.

Great End Result – Quick Professional Help

I used doctor Sam, and I found him unbelievable good. He was very easy to talk to and straight away he had a plan in place. Went to meet him and on the same day had my surgery and couldn’t be happier with the end result. It was pain-free during and after, couldn’t recommend Dr Sam enough. He answered and questions I had and reassured me everything was going to be all fine, also aftercare service is outstanding. You can message Dr Sam anytime and he will always reply and talk to you with any questions you might have, thanks again, Dr Sam.
