For athletes, a sports injury can feel like pressing pause on the thing you love. Beyond the physical pain, you might be feeling the frustration of regression, sidelined goals, and the fear of re-injury. Traditional treatments like surgery or physical therapy often require long recovery times and don’t always guarantee results.

That’s where amniotic stem cell therapy comes in. This revolutionary, non-invasive treatment speeds up recovery and promotes the regeneration of damaged tissue—all without the risks or downtime of invasive procedures.

At Arizona Pain and Spine Institute, we specialize in advanced regenerative medicine. We offer treatments designed to help you heal quickly and safely. We’re here to help you get back to doing what you love. Learn more about this innovative treatment here or schedule an appointment today.

What Are Amniotic Stem Cells?

Amniotic stem cells are cells taken from the amniotic membrane of healthy donors. They are packed with proteins and growth factors that repair damaged tissues. These cells reduce inflammation, promote healing, and encourage the growth of new, healthy tissue. Sourced from the amniotic membrane of healthy donors, these cells are ethically harvested and processed under strict U.S. safety standards to ensure both effectiveness and patient safety.

These cells have unique properties that make them ideal for treating sports injuries:

Get Back Your Normal Life Again

As pain specialists, we can guarantee that we are more than qualified in alleviating your pain and treating your condition.

Schedule Treatment
  • Rich in growth factors and proteins: These essential components stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.
  • Anti-inflammatory capabilities: Amniotic stem cells actively reduce swelling and pain at the injury site.
  • Highly regenerative: They promote the growth of new tissue, replace damaged cells, and speed up recovery.

At Arizona Pain and Spine Institute, all our stem cells are thoroughly tested and processed in an American Association of Tissue Banks (AATB) accredited facility. By avoiding the use of the chorion layer, which can cause complications, our treatments eliminate the risk of transplant rejection.

With amniotic stem cell therapy, you’re addressing the source of the injury and giving your body the tools it needs to heal itself.

Common Sports Injuries Treated with Amniotic Stem Cells

Sports injuries can hurt your performance and set you on a long path to recovery. However, amniotic stem cell therapy can speed up recovery time and is effective for many types of sports injuries, including:

  • Ligament and Tendon Tears: ACL tears and rotator cuff injuries often require months of recovery, but stem cell therapy can help the affected areas heal faster.
  • Joint Pain and Stiffness: Stiffness in the knees, elbows, or shoulders can limit your performance. Stem cells can reduce this discomfort and increase mobility.
  • Cartilage Damage and Degeneration: Amniotic stem cells repairs worn or damaged cartilage caused by high-impact activities.
  • Chronic Inflammation: Conditions caused by overuse, such as tendonitis or arthritis, can benefit from the anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties of stem cells

How Amniotic Stem Cell Therapy Works

Stem cell treatment is a straightforward, patient-focused process designed for maximum results:

  1. Consultation and Diagnosis
    • First, our specialists conduct a thorough evaluation. They will assess your injury and overall health to determine if stem cell therapy is the best option.
    • Using advanced diagnostics, we find the source of your pain to ensure precise treatment.
  2. Injection Process
    • Imaging technology is used to accurately inject the injured area with prepared stem cells.
    • This targeted approach ensures that the treatment focuses on the specific site of injury.
  3. Healing Phase
    • After the injection, the stem cells release growth factors and anti-inflammatory proteins to reduce swelling and begin tissue repair.
    • Most patients notice improvements within weeks, including reduced pain, improved mobility, and stronger, healthier tissue.

This targeted treatment strategy makes for better outcomes by addressing the injury at its source.

Benefits of Amniotic Stem Cell Therapy for Athletes

  • Faster Recovery Times: Return to your routine sooner without the extended recovery periods that come with surgery.
  • Pain Relief Without Opioids or Medications: Experience natural pain relief without the risks of dependency or side effects.
  • Long-Lasting Results That Reduce Reinjury Risk: Strengthen and repair tissue to prevent future injuries.
  • Personalized Treatment Plans: Personalized plans ensure the best possible outcomes for your condition.
