Bursitis
Bursitis is a painful condition that occurs when the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs located between bones and soft tissues in the body, become inflamed. This inflammation can be caused by overuse, injury, or infection. The symptoms of bursitis include pain, swelling, stiffness, and redness in the affected area. In some cases, there may also be a loss of mobility or strength.
Regenerative treatments such as PRP and stem cell therapy have shown promise in treating bursitis, as they promote the body’s natural healing processes to repair and regenerate damaged tissues.
- Experience: 15+ years in stem cell therapies
- Effective Treatments: Using your stem cells or MSCs for pain relief, regeneration, and more.
Regenerative Treatments
Types ofregenerative treatments that are commonly used to treat Bursitis
- Stem cell therapy: Stem cells can be harvested from the patient’s own body, such as bone marrow, and then injected into the affected area to promote tissue regeneration and repair damaged tissues.
- Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy: This treatment involves injecting a concentrated solution of the patient’s own platelets, which contain growth factors and other proteins that help repair damaged tissues, into the affected area.
Types of Bursitis
- Prepatellar bursitis, “housemaid’s knee”
- Infrapatellar bursitis, “clergyman’s knee”
- Trochanteric bursitis, giving pain over lateral aspect of hip
- Olecranon bursitis, “student’s elbow”, characterized by pain and swelling in the elbow
- Subacromial bursitis, giving shoulder pain, is the most common form of bursitis.
- Achilles bursitis
- Retrocalcaneal bursitis
- Ischial bursitis, “weaver’s bottom”
- Iliopsoas bursitis
- Anserine bursitis
Types of Stem Cells :
Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs)
Found in early-stage embryos. Super powerful, can become any cell in the body. They are not typically used in modern clinical settings in the U.S. We don’t offer treatments using ESCs.
Adult Stem Cells (ASCs)
Found in tissues like bone marrow and fat. Their job is to maintain and repair the tissue they come from. These are what we mostly use in regenerative medicine. We do offer treatments using ASCs.
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)
This is the type A subtype of adult stem cells found in bone marrow, fat, and umbilical cords. They're amazing at reducing inflammation, modulating the immune system, and helping damaged tissue heal. We do offer treatments using MSCs.
Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs)
Regular adult cells that scientists “reprogram” to act like embryonic stem cells. Big in research, not widely used yet in clinical care. We do not work with iPSCs.

What are Stem Cells?
Stem cells are your body’s raw materials basically, the building blocks for all other cells. They’re special because they can:
1. Divide and make more copies of themselves (self-renew).
2. Turn into specialized cells like muscle, bone, nerve, skin, or blood cells (differentiate).
Think of them like the body’s repair system. If you get injured or sick, stem cells can go to the area and help regenerate damaged tissue.
