Harness Your Body's Power to Heal Naturally

Explore advanced regenerative therapies including PRP, Stem Cell, and Prolotherapy to relieve pain, stimulate healing, and restore function without surgery.

What Is Regenerative Medicine?

Regenerative medicine is an approach that helps your body repair itself. Instead of hiding pain with medication or turning immediately to surgery, these treatments activate natural healing mechanisms to reduce inflammation and restore function.

At Interventional Orthopedics of Washington (IOW), we focus on image-guided, non-surgical procedures that target the source of musculoskeletal problems. Our therapies include:

  • Stem Cell Therapy (Bone Marrow Concentrate)

  • Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP)

  • Prolotherapy

These treatments are designed to address joint pain, tendon injuries, ligament instability, and arthritis in a way that supports long-term recovery.
