The Simple Truth About Pain Medicine
Most pain care works by blocking pain signals — gabapentin, cortisone shots, surgery to remove the “offending” tissue. These approaches can offer temporary relief, but they do nothing to repair the underlying damage. The pain often returns, sometimes worse than before.
Regenerative medicine takes the opposite approach. Instead of suppressing what your body is telling you, it works with your biology to actually heal the damaged tissue, restore circulation to starved nerves, reduce systemic inflammation, and re-energize cells that have lost their ability to function. The goal is not to mask the pain — it’s to eliminate the reason for the pain.
Frequently Asked Questions About Regenerative Medicine
What is regenerative medicine?
Regenerative medicine is a branch of healthcare focused on repairing, replacing, or regenerating damaged cells, tissues, and organs using the body’s own healing mechanisms or biological materials. Unlike conventional medicine that manages symptoms, regenerative medicine targets the root biological cause of pain and degeneration. At Charleston Pain Relief Center we offer three core therapies: Stem Cell Therapy, EBOO Ozone Therapy, and the Charleston Neuropathy Protocol.
How is regenerative medicine different from traditional pain management?
Traditional pain management blocks or manages pain signals. Regenerative medicine works to repair the actual damage causing pain — stimulating tissue regeneration, restoring nerve blood flow, reducing systemic inflammation, and re-energizing cells. The goal is lasting improvement, not indefinite medication dependency.
What is stem cell therapy and how does it work?
Stem cell therapy uses biologic materials — typically Wharton’s Jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells from ethically sourced umbilical cord tissue — that contain growth factors, cytokines, and exosomes. When introduced near damaged tissue, these biological signals attract repair cells and create a healing environment. At CPRC, stem cell therapy is most commonly used for arthritic joints, spinal degeneration, and peripheral nerve damage.
What is EBOO therapy and how does it fit into regenerative medicine?
EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) draws blood, exposes it to ozone and oxygen through a filter, then returns it — similar to dialysis but for cellular optimization. It reduces systemic inflammation, clears cellular waste, re-energizes mitochondria, and activates immune function. It creates the biological foundation that makes other regenerative therapies more effective.
Is regenerative medicine covered by insurance?
Most regenerative therapies including stem cell therapy and EBOO are not covered by Medicare or standard health insurance. Charleston Pain Relief Center offers flexible financing options. Call 843-225-2550 to discuss your options during a free consultation.
How do I know if I am a candidate for regenerative medicine?
You may be a strong candidate if conventional treatments haven’t worked, you want to avoid surgery, you’ve been told nothing can be done, or you have neuropathy, arthritis, spinal degeneration, or chronic inflammation. A comprehensive evaluation at CPRC will determine which therapies are most appropriate for you.
How long does it take to see results?
EBOO therapy often produces energy improvements within 1-3 sessions. The Neuropathy Protocol typically shows measurable nerve improvement within 6-12 sessions. Stem cell therapy shows initial improvement in 4-8 weeks with tissue regeneration continuing for 3-6 months. We track objective outcomes at every visit.
