You might not know it, but you rely heavily on your shoulders for everyday movements, such as pushing, pulling, and lifting.

Shoulder degeneration can occur as you age, become less active, or because of repetitive activities, such as tennis, swimming, or weightlifting. Unfortunately, the shoulder’s poor blood supply also limits its ability to regenerate. If you are experiencing pain, decreased range of motion, or popping in your shoulder, please contact our patient care team to discuss if Regenexx Cayman treatments are the right choice for you.

Real Results

“I love to be active; it’s always been part of my life. Now I've entered my sixties and I’m partially retired so I just want to stay active and do as many things as I can for as long as I can. As I researched it, you know, Regenexx sticks out. I just knew it was for me. I'm back on the Rings, scuba diving, doing all the things I love.”

SHOULDER PATIENT OUTCOMES

Regenexx maintains an active registry that tracks the post-procedure outcomes of patients. Here are some of the major findings from our Regenexx-C shoulder outcome data and research studies:

  • 2 years post-treatment, patients reported a functional level of 88%.

  • 18 months post-treatment, patients reported that their pain levels decreased to an average of just 1.1 out of 10.

  • 3 years post-treatment, patients reported an overall improvement of 71%.

FAQ

After my Regenexx shoulder procedure, when can I be active again?

This depends on your specific treatment, and you will be given post-procedure instructions to follow. However, most patients resume normal mobility four days after treatment (with lifting restrictions), light resistance training and some lifting by week three, and a return to sport and full functional activity after seven weeks. Patients also report a continued improvement in function and decrease in pain many months after their procedure.

Will I need physical therapy after my Regenexx shoulder stem cell procedure?

Yes, we usually recommend physical therapy after treatment. You will receive specific post-procedure instructions and rehab protocols for your shoulder. These will detail restricted and permitted activities, therapeutic exercises, rehab progression, and recommendations for physical therapy following stem cell injections for the first three months after treatment.

Do you have outcome data relating to my specific shoulder condition e.g. rotator cuff tear?

We can provide joint-specific outcome data (i.e. all shoulder patients), but not condition-specific data. Regenexx maintains an active patient registry of all patients and publicly publishes patient outcomes. Regenexx Cayman regularly compiles Regenexx-C data from the registry. Please contact us if you would like to know more.

Do shoulders respond well to Regenexx Cayman PRP and stem cell treatments?
