How to Repair Your Shoulder Without Surgery
Most shoulder injuries can be repaired without surgery. At The Stone Clinic, we approach each injury individually to put together the best treatment plan possible to return patients back to the activities they love, fitter, faster, and stronger than they were before their injury. Shoulder injuries come in many forms, like torn rotator cuffs, dislocated shoulders where the labrum has been torn, AC joint dislocation & arthritis. We diagnose each of these differently and create a customized treatment plan based on physical exam, x-ray, and MRI. We have found that many shoulder injuries can be repaired without surgery using injections with lubrication and growth factors along with physiotherapy.
The broad field of pain-relieving anabolic injections focuses on stimulating your body’s own internal pharmacy to improve the site of your injury in the following ways: - accelerating the healing process - shutting down inflammation - limiting scar formation - recruiting the body’s stem-cell-derived self-repair cells to regenerate damaged tissue
At The Stone Clinic, we combine PRP with HA to create a broadly stimulating "cocktail" to induce a healing response in both non-operative and post-operative patients.
