Stem Cells & Regenerative MedicineRegenerative Medicine is an exciting new field in medicine that treats injuries by harnessing your body’s own regenerative capabilities. When tissues such as ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and muscles are injured, your body uses its own healing ability to rebuild the damaged tissue. Most of the healing factors and important nutrients that are needed for repairing the tissue are brought to the site of injury through your blood vessels.
