Regenerative medicine is changing the way orthopedic conditions are treated – especially for patients looking to avoid surgery or long recovery periods. At Regenexx Cayman, we offer advanced, non-surgical treatments that use your body’s own healing cells to help restore damaged tissues, relieve pain, and improve function.

Our treatments are used to treat a range of conditions, aiding recovery of damaged cartilage, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and bones. They also reduce the need for painkillers, steroid shots, narcotics, and invasive surgery. View the conditions we treat here.

In orthopedics, stem cell treatments harness the body’s natural repair mechanisms to help heal injuries, reduce inflammation, and support tissue regeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), most commonly researched from the bone marrow but also found in fat and umbilical cord tissue, have the remarkable ability to develop into various types of musculoskeletal tissue, such as bone, cartilage, and tendons.

Instead of relying on surgery or long-term medications that often only manage symptoms, stem cell therapy works at the source – addressing the actual cause of pain or dysfunction. It’s a minimally invasive approach that focuses on promoting natural healing rather than simply masking symptoms.

At Regenexx Cayman, we do things differently. Here’s how our approach stands out:

We take the time to understand your unique situation. Every patient undergoes a thorough evaluation that includes a detailed medical history and review of imaging (x-ray or MRI), so we can identify the underlying cause of your condition and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs. We also want to learn about any limitations you’re currently experiencing and your treatment goals. After each consultation – whether a virtual consult or in-person – we provide a candidacy rating of “good,” “fair,” or “poor.” This is so you will have a better understanding of your expected outcome, and it will help you make a more well-informed treatment decision.

At Regenexx Cayman, we offer several different biologic treatment options tailored to your specific needs. Our stem cell treatments use your own bone marrow-derived MSCs, processed using Regenexx’s proprietary lab techniques to achieve significantly higher concentrations.

We also offer platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, which can help support the healing of soft tissue injuries and early-stage arthritis. Regardless of the treatment, all injections are done using real-time imaging – either high-definition ultrasound or fluoroscopy. This helps us precisely target your problem areas, so you can get the best possible outcome. Unfortunately, many providers do “blind injections,” and cannot offer the same level of accuracy and precision.

In 2005, our physicians became one of the first in the world to use stem cells to treat orthopedic conditions, and we’ve spent decades continually refining these treatments with over 50,000 treatments completed in the Regenexx Network to-date. All physicians at Regenexx Cayman are U.S. board-certified orthopedic specialists with an expertise in sports injuries, musculoskeletal disorders, and pain management.

Did you know that Regenexx physicians have authored over 44% of all published research on orthopedic stem cell treatments, including one of the world’s largest stem cell safety studies? No other provider or clinic in the field comes close to this level of published clinical data.

As pioneers in regenerative medicine, our doctors are deeply committed to patient care, ongoing research, the advancement of Regenexx procedures, and even training physicians worldwide in our innovative techniques.

  • Minimally Invasive: No large incisions or hospital stays. Procedures are done in an outpatient procedure suite and typically have a much shorter recovery time.
  • Chronic Pain Relief: Stem cell therapy can provide lasting relief for conditions like arthritis, back pain, and tendon injuries – without relying on narcotics or steroid shots.
  • Avoid or Delay Surgery: Many patients use Regenexx treatments to avoid or postpone joint replacement surgery for years.
  • Preserve Function: These treatments support the body’s ability to repair itself, helping to maintain joint mobility and strength.
  • High Cell Yield: Regenexx-C cultures your stem cells to 100-1,000x greater than the initial stem cell extraction. This means there are more cells available to treat multiple joints and/or more severe conditions, and even the option to bank cells for future use.

Our patients – from athletes and weekend warriors to retirees – have found real relief through Regenexx procedures. Whether it’s avoiding surgery after a torn meniscus or getting back to hiking after years of knee pain, these stories reflect what’s possible with the right treatment.


“Regenexx is amazing. Torn Meniscus healed. MRI verified.”

“My results have been nothing short of excellent…I’m currently participating in all activities symptom free.”

– Mark Hagenbaugh (Treated for Knee Arthritis and Rotator Cuff Tear)


After [Dr. Markle] treated my hip with Regenexx-C, I am no longer crippled, and I am able to get around great. I am so thankful to him and all the Regenexx Cayman staff for taking such great care of me.”

– Gwendolynn Akins (Regenexx-C Hip Patient)


“All the staff at Regenexx are exceptional. The nurses are courteous and compassionate. [The doctor] listens to my concerns…and genuinely wants the absolute best for his patients. He went above and beyond the call. Highly recommended!!”

– Dr. Daniel Green


“I was constantly dealing with knee popping, and my knee would hurt when I went snowboarding. Having [Regenexx-C treatment] fix that issue was a huge step up.”

– Taylor Gold (Olympian, Regenexx-C Knee and Ankle Patient)


“What people sometimes don’t understand is the impact of mental health when you’re going through chronic pain. For about 22 years, I went through episodes where my back would go. [At one point] I spent two weeks in my bed, and I couldn’t move. I couldn’t even move my legs…I was the most terrified I’ve ever been in my life…and that has been a reoccurring theme for me. [I] Came over to Grand Cayman, beautiful island, and I got the treatment done, and WOW was it ever life changing! My mental health is bang on now, no darkness, which is phenomenal, and my life has changed.”

Kirsty Dies (Therapist, Regenexx-C Patient)


“Post-procedure, I noticed drastic improvements…much less joint pain; in fact, no pain! I was able to start exercising as much as I want…and it’s improved all aspects of my life.”

– Dr. Brad Alderman (Regenexx-C Knee Patient)
