The Possibilities of Regenerative Medicine

Antoine has access to remarkable healthcare opportunities in Fort Collins, CO. For some time he has been receiving stem cell injections, shock-wave treatment and protein rich plasma treatment (PRP) injections. All three of these treatments have the similar goal of healing damage to joints and tissue. Stem cell injections offer a “blank slate” for tissue to regenerate from, shock-waves are intended to improve joint condition and PRP promotes faster healing by quickly reducing inflammation. These treatments are not right for every condition so, if you consider it for your pet, be sure to get a second opinion before proceeding.

 

Antoine was still dozy from his procedures when Connie snapped this photo yesterday. The patch on his leg is Lidocaine for the pain that he might have at the injection sites.
