Pain Management

At Oklahoma Restorative we use an individualized approach to pain management including education, nutrition, supplementation, and if needed, prescription medication to alleviate pain symptoms. 

Our main goal is to utilize regenerative medicine to include treatments such as exosome therapy, platelet rich plasma (PRP) therapy, neuromodulators, certain cartilage regeneration procedures, and cellular therapies. It can be useful when an injury is unlikely to heal with traditional non-surgical treatments, such as rest and physical therapy, or pain and function have not improved following rehabilitation or surgery. By combining these approaches, we can boost your natural healing process and help restore normal function.

PRP Knee Injections

Over the past decade, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) has been recognized for its potential in treating both chronic and acute musculoskeletal injuries involving ligaments and tendons, muscles, and joints. More recently, PRP injections are gaining wide media attention for their use with professional athletes in attempts to return them to competition as soon as possible.

In a quick and simple outpatient procedure, PRP injections can help you:

  • Build strength
  • Improve balance and coordination
  • Increase flexibility and range of motion
  • Recover mobility
  • Reduce pain and swelling
  • Regenerate cartilage
  • Speed post-surgical recovery

Exosome Knee Injections 

  • VITTI-PURE ® uses umbilical cord tissue to offer a support matrix abundant in growth factors for joints, ligaments, tendons, and other musculoskeletal applications, helping repair in the patient. This solution provides rich biological materials and growth factors without the need to draw and spin blood using expensive equipment, maintenance, and extensive patient waiting times. On the other hand, PRP treatments utilize the body's own available resources to repair an injury site by drawing blood to obtain the growth factors.

Peptide Therapy : Peptides are chains of amino acids that act as cell signaling molecules. Regenerative therapies are paired well with specific peptides that act to induce a variety of physiologic activity such as cell turnover, hormone modulation, muscle growth and more

There are many potentially useful peptides for pain management depending on the primary issue and degree of secondary contributions available at our clinic. 

Botox© Injections: BOTOX® prevents headaches and migraine attacks before they even start. BOTOX® prevents, on average, 8 to 9 headache days and migraine/probable migraine days a month (vs 6 to 7 for placebo).

Trigger Point Injections

Trigger Point Injections: Treatment for Stiff, Painful Muscles

When a muscle becomes stiff, torn, or bruised, the point of origin for the injury is known as the “trigger point”. A trigger point injection contains a mixture of medications that helps the muscle relax and reduce inflammation. As the medication does its work, blood flow will improve and the body will start to heal itself.

Pain from an injured muscle can cause headaches and aches in other areas of the pain such as the arms, legs, or lower back. Treating the pain at the trigger point is one of the most effective means of remedying these problems.
