CHRONIC PAIN & ACHES CONTROL
Chronic pain and movement limitation mean that you enjoy your life less. Very rarely do we stop to think how we can really and seriously get rid of all those body aches and pains that we suffer from due to stress, from work or home. WellnessPlus can definitively help those clients -otherwise healthy- who suffer from daily pain in their neck, shoulders, back, hips, knees and even migraine headaches.

Chronic Pain Therapy: an effective, curative option
JOINT/BONE PAIN TREATMENT
REGENERATIVE THERAPY
Pain, Inflammation, and Sports Injury: Lasting relief and healing
WellnessPlus provides the following regenerative therapies:
- Stem Cell Therapy, from the patient’s natural stem cells
- PRP – Platelet-Rich-Plasma, from the patient’s own natural growth factors and proteins
- Prolotherapy, from a mildly irritating substance (dextrose) to stimulate body’s natural healing process.
Patients can see a significant improvement in symptoms. This may eliminate the need for more aggressive treatments, such as long-term medication or surgery, and help the patient achieve a remarkable return of function. Studies suggest an improvement of 80-85%. Some patients experience complete relief of their pain. The results are generally permanent.
PRP (Platelets-Rich Plasma) & Stem cell therapy
Human Platelets are very much involved in the injury healing process. They are naturally extremely rich in connective tissue growth factors; however, processing then into a PRP therapy the concentration of platelets and growth factors gets increased by up to 500%.
For PRP, we use the patient’s blood and also treat it down to obtain healing growth factors and the platelets rich in protein to help stimulate healing. By injecting injured or damaged sites with a concentrated mix of blood platelets harvested from the patient’s body, tissue is stimulated to regenerate more effectively. Those injured tissues may be a muscle, a ligament, a tendon, or a disc that needs regeneration. We have accomplished significant improvement in patient outcomes without any further medical treatment or surgical intervention ever needed. The treatment can be used alone in moderate cases or, in more severe cases, in conjunction with mesenchymal stem cell injections to supplement the body’s existing supply.
For stem cells, we obtain a patient’s stem cells by aspirating tissue from the patient’s hip bone or their fat cells. This tissue is treated down to identify and separate specific primitive cells that will help heal the affected or damaged tissues.
Prolotherapy
Prolotherapy is a regenerative treatment performed by injecting a mildly irritating substance, such as dextrose, in the areas of the pain or instability by a series of injections often separated by four to six weeks in between injections. These areas of chronic pain have poor blood supply, such as joints, ligaments, tendons, or even discs.
When this irritating dextrose solution is injected, there is a local healing response stimulated, which increases blood flow, and encourages the body to lay down additional healing tissues, such as, fibrous tissue or collagen. This often then thickens or strengthens the ligaments or tendon, thus, reducing the pain.
