Knee

Regenexx procedures can help improve knee function and decrease pain without the need for surgery. During this outpatient procedure, Dr. Derrington uses precise image guidance to inject custom concentrations of your body’s natural healing agents into the exact areas of damage to tighten and stabilize your knee joint. This precise approach to orthopedic care can’t be replicated by a surgeon or nurse in a chiropractor’s office. Regenexx specialists require thousands of hours of training and follow a standardized protocol process to become a licensed Regenexx physician.

Knee treatment at Derrington Orthopedics

Conditions we treat in the knee

A diagnosis first, then a plan

Correct diagnosis takes time. Regenexx physicians spend an average of an hour with new patients, addressing not only the site of pain but its underlying causes. Patients then receive a candidacy grade that rates the likelihood that a procedure can help them.

If we are not the right fit for your condition, we will tell you — and try to point you in the right direction.

The treatments behind these procedures

  • 01

    Regenexx procedures — bone marrow concentrate and advanced platelet procedures, placed under image guidance.

  • 02

    Platelet Rich Plasma — concentrated platelets from your own blood, for tendon and ligament damage and mild arthritis.

  • 03

    Prolotherapy — for ligament laxity and joint instability.

  • 04

    MLS Laser Therapy — non-invasive pain and inflammation control, often alongside the above.

Which one fits your case is decided at the evaluation, from your imaging and the tissue involved — not from a web page.
