Regenerative Medicine Treatment for Tennis Elbow
Unlike other treatments used to relieve orthopedic pain, biologic preparations are regenerative and naturally rich in multiple anti-inflammatory healing factors. These injections contain high levels of growth factors that stimulate tissue healing, extracellular matrix proteins that bind cells together, and a unique form of hyaluronic acid, a substance that acts as a lubricant.
This groundbreaking treatment is administered in the office by Dr. Sforzo, Dr. Dillingham, Dr. Stewart, or Dr. Meinhardt and does not require painful extraction of your fat or bone marrow. If you have been suffering from osteoarthritis pain, discomfort from sports injuries, or other orthopedic conditions, this may be a great time to make a new treatment choice. Biologic cellular product treatments may free you from relying on oral medicines, steroid injections, and viscosupplementation, but most importantly, you may be able to delay or entirely avoid further treatment or surgery.
Why Choose Regenerative Medicine?
Orthopedic injury and degenerative disorders are common conditions that millions of patients face. Whether your orthopedic condition needs surgery, minimally invasive repair, or regenerative medicine, choosing an orthopedic surgeon should not be something that is taken lightly. Ensuring the physician you select has the credentials and experience necessary is essential, and when it comes to healing your body, improving range-of-motion, functionality, and comfort level, finding the best orthopedic surgeon is critical.
Making Sure the Physician is Well trained is Imperative
You have a choice when deciding on an orthopedic surgeon. It’s essential for patients to do their research, look at real reviews and patient testimonials, and most importantly, to go with a physician or group that has the experience level and training necessary to improve their condition, restore their joints, and get them back to living the life they deserve.
Regenerative Medicine Therapy for Tennis Elbows
Conservative treatment for tennis elbow includes anti-inflammatory medications, rest, immobilization of the elbow, and physical therapy. Often, tendonitis requires surgery; however, regenerative medicine is a powerful component and can alleviate the need for surgery and other treatment methods.
How Does Biologic Therapy Work?
The procedure is performed in-office, the biologic serum is injected into the affected area via ultrasound-guided technology so that the physician maintains complete and precise control of where they are distributed. The regenerative effects can last for several years.
The injections are done in 1- 3 increments, 2 weeks apart.
Regenerative Medicine can be used in most areas of the body and these are the following are common conditions that it is beneficial for treating the elbow:
- Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
- Golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis)

- Ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injury
- Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis
