What is a Regenerative Medicine Specialist?

Dr. Stephenson uses prolotherapy and platelet-rich plasma, injection-based treatments for chronic musculoskeletal conditions. These are nonsurgical regenerative injection techniques that introduce small amounts of an irritant solution to the site of painful and degenerated tendon insertions, joints, and or ligaments. These treatments cause the body to heal itself naturally. These treatments can be used for low back pain, neck pain, knee, and hip pain. Anywhere there is chronic pain due to sprains, strains, and or degenerative arthritis is a target for regenerative injections.

Dr. Stephenson teaches prolotherapy locally and internationally.
