This video explores the non-invasive knee treatment options available for knee cartilage regeneration. Discover the power of non-surgical knee cartilage repair and learn how to effectively restore your knee's health without the need for surgery.
By implementing proven techniques like physical therapy, personalized fitness like our V-Fit program, exercise programs, and offloading techniques, you can promote the preservation and oftentimes natural healing of your knee cartilage, leading to improved function and reduced pain.
Managing muscle imbalances and joint mechanics is crucial when considering knee cartilage preservation and repair. Muscle imbalances, particularly overactive quadriceps muscles, can exert excessive pressure on the knee joint, leading to wear and tear of the cartilage. Additionally, improper joint mechanics, such as misalignment or abnormal movement patterns, can contribute to cartilage deterioration.
By addressing these issues through targeted exercises, physical therapy, and muscle retraining, you can alleviate pressure on the cartilage and promote healing. Learn how to restore balance to your knee joint and improve its overall function without resorting to surgical interventions.
In this video, we delve deeper into the world of non-surgical knee cartilage preservation and even repair. Discover effective strategies, explore regenerative medicine options, and learn how to manage muscle imbalances and joint mechanics for optimal results.

I'm sad but still hopeful that eventually something would be discovered to help us.
Little by little we are getting there. There have been some papers that show some cartilage can be grown back. We will eventually get to the point where we can grow cartilage back, but even more importantly PREVENT cartilage loss in the first place. Thank you for your comment!

What about collagen, bpc 157 or other supplements, can it help?
Good question. We do not Rx peptides at this time, but BPC 157 is reported to aid in the recovery after exercise amongst other things. Interestingly, it is actually a banned substance for competitive/professional/Olympic/world class athletes, so that does lend to the fact that it sounds like it is truly a performance enhancer since it is banned. Again, we cannot comment on personal use because we do not prescribe it currently. It is also not FDA approved, so there are regulatory issues that also need to be considered. As far as collagen and other supplements, and some people would consider peptides supplements, that is a personal choice. Always read the package insert and/or consult with your pharmacist/physician/medical provider regarding any supplements you take. Since collagen is not a banned substance it is doubtful that it enhances performance, but some people do feel that taking collagen, even going way back to Knox Nutrijoint helps their joint pain and their flexibility. Nothing Earth shattering, nothing as profound as using cellular based therapy, but a personal choice. We hope that helps. Thank you!

I went to the orthopedic because my knees started locking and had a mri done. The mri showed osteoarthritis, loss of cartilage. I am trying physical therapy but feels like when i do physical therapy my knee locking happens more often vs when i don't do anything. I'm scared of doing physical therapy, I don't want to get worse. I have no insurance and i need to work or I'll be homeless :( please, anything you suggest?
Discuss this exact thing with your P.T. See if they can add some modifications to the program they are currently having you do. Also discuss with the provider who referred you. If it is your primary care physician who referred you, they may want to refer you to an orthopedic surgeon. Thank you for your question.
Sorry, looks like you saw an orthopedic surgeon. Same thing, but just talk to the orthopedic about your continued symptoms.
Were can I get stem cell bone cells injections for my knee?
Technically, there are no true “stem cell“ therapies in the United States. Meaning, we cannot culture and grow stem cells currently, and then inject them back into a patient except under special circumstances, such as an approved research study for example. however, bone marrow, which has stem cells in it, can be aspirated and/or concentrated and utilized as well as certain forms of adipose tissue that also have a higher concentration of stem cells in them than other types of body tissues. Technically these are “off label“ uses, but as long as the use is considered “homologous” and Proper informed consent is performed, they can be utilized for the knee. We tend to utilize bone marrow because it has both hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells as well as many other types of cells and growth factors.

Apologies I could not figure out how to edit my comment. I meant to ask, can walking every day grow cartilage if one is bone on bone? Thank you. I am bone on bone and I really don't want to get a tkr and am not in a lot of pain but I do get flare ups every now and then. My MRI says I'm a grade 3 & 4 in different compartments. I'm just afraid I may be trading one thing for another and I've read that 20% of people are not happy with their outcomes. On the other hand I don't want to wait too long either if I really need it. Stressed...

Hello where are you from India?? I am having same problem
Can walking everyday grow cartilage?
Walking in and of itself probably does not grow cartilage. Don’t know of any studies that show that. Having said that, MOVEMENT is very good for the health of the cartilage we do have. Joints were made for moving, so, in general, movement is good for joint and cartilage health and maintenance. We have the motto: “Get moving…Keep moving” at Victory In Motion for that reason. Thank you for your question!
@@VictorySportsMed Thank you for your response.
Prp does not work waste of money
That statement is not true. Having said that NO treatment, EVEN SURGERY, is 100%. The only things in life that are 100% are death and taxes.
On a serious note, elaborate here…what was your experience? We’d love to hear more. Thank you for your comment.
It didn't work with me as well
@@jidhinmlcet there are so many factors. What a lot of doctors are calling “PRP” actually is not a high enough concentration of platelets which, depending on the condition, needs to be anywhere between 3.5 billion all the way up to 10 billion. Are they using single spin, double spin? Are they using leukocyte rich vs leukocyte poor? How much blood are they drawing? Are they using ultrasound to inject precisely? What is the rehab like, are they doing total body fitness like we do? Are they adding other adjuncts such as MLS laser? Having said that, we have found that adding cells, i.e., bone marrow aspirate cells, does seem to improve our results. Bottom line: not all “PRP” is actually “PRP”.
