this way, stem cells allow you to heal your own body. Several of our patients who have been in pain for years are now experiencing good results after using stem cells to promote tissue healing and repair
Pain Awareness Month with the hope of setting aside a time when various organizations can work to raise public awareness of issues surrounding pain and pain management. The approach to pain management has become synonymous with surgery and/or prescription medication in many circles, resulting in a widespread opioid epidemic. So, understanding you have options when it comes to treating your chronic pain is of the utmost importance. Those who have suffered a serious injury or who are constantly in a state of pain are often told that going under the knife is the only treatment option available, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Here at Regenerative Sport Spine and Spa, we offer stem cell injections as a natural, healing alternative to surgery. The most amazing characteristic of stem cells is that they are capable of transforming into different types of cells to heal organs, tissues, and joints throughout your body. They are the only type of cell in the body that has the ability to turn into a brand-new cell with a completely different function! Furthermore, they work to maximize the body’s own natural healing system by transforming into new cells that replace the damaged ones and repair the injured tissue at the site. In
for several conditions, such as these: heart disease; cancer; diabetes; leukemia; spine, shoulder, or knee injuries; and even erectile dysfunction. This September, as we look toward National Pain Awareness Month, we encourage you to consider the damage that overprescribing has caused the population, and instead, spend more time learning about natural alternative treatments.
You should also attend our upcoming workshop!

Since we’ve given you lots of material to read already, why don’t you take a quick break? But don’t just sit there. Use this break as an opportunity to take some deep breaths. Surveys report that Americans’ stress levels reached new heights in 2010 and have continued to exponentially increase in the years following. While you have many options for stress management, a good place to start is with some deep breathing exercises. Deep breathing increases the supply of oxygen to your brain and stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes a state of calmness. It slows down your heart rate and helps bring your awareness away from the worries in your head. Start by inhaling through your nose for a count of five seconds. Hold the breath for five seconds. Then exhale through your mouth for a count of five seconds. Continue the cycle as often as needed. TAKE A BREAK FROM READING ... AND TAKE A DEEP BREATH
