FAQ

Our cell-based therapies follow the principles of regenerative medicine, which utilize your own cells — from blood or bone marrow — to stimulate your body’s repair mechanisms. Your cells, reintroduced into your system via minimally-invasive methods (injection or intravenous infusion) target areas of injury or degeneration to accelerate growth of new tissue, reduce inflammation and help relieve chronic pain.

As more and more science-based RM procedures are performed, the data that’s been collected shows that these methodologies are helping patients. Pain levels have been reduced, range of motion increased, symptoms relieved and, for some, underlying causes cured. Recovery rates can be exceptionally good, with many patients on their feet the same day and reporting significant improvement within weeks of treatment.

Your treatment begins with a consult from a physician to assess your condition and match you with the most effective treatment option. Your procedure will then be scheduled at which time you will be guided every step of the way with the Axiom app that you download on your smart phone. Your care will be expertly coordinated through the app and Patient Navigation Center team, who will ensure you are ready for your treatment and will provide you with ongoing after care from your physician's office.

Stem cells that come from your bone marrow tissue have distinct functional properties including immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory functional properties which have the capability of repairing and regenerating damaged tissue associated with disease and injury.

Regenerative medicine procedures do not require overnight stays in a medical facility. The entire procedure is performed in an outpatient setting, usually takes about 2 hours and you can go home that day and return to your normal activities right away.

Regenerative therapies are non-surgical and the majority of procedures are done in your doctor’s office with local anesthetic at the injection site. Some procedures are done while you are mildly sedated or under anesthesia. Your doctor will explain the details of your particular therapy.

Injections of regenerative cells precisely target areas of damaged/injured tissue, and inflammatory and degenerative disease. We always recommend you talk to your doctor about the best treatment for your particular condition.

Stem cells are unspecialized cells that live in your body in various organs (bone marrow, muscle etc.). They are recognized for their unique characteristic to undergo differentiation and eventually transform into a particular type of cell or tissue. They have the distinct ability for self-renewal and are used extensively in regenerative medicine.

Compared to surgery, regenerative therapies present very low risk of infection or complications. Drugs are not involved, so side effects are not a concern. Axiom therapies are governed by rigorous in-house protocols to ensure the quality and safety of the treatment you receive.

Alpha 2 Macroglobulin (A2M) is a protease inhibitor that occurs naturally in the blood and inhibits the actions of proteins that damage joints and cartilage. Concentrated A2M injections help manage osteoarthritis and other degenerative conditions.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy delivers concentrated platelets directly to damaged tissues to initiate the body’s own potent healing responses to treat acute injury, inflammation or chronic degenerative disease.

Regenerative therapies are non-surgical and the majority of procedures are done in your doctor’s office with local anesthetic at the injection site. Some procedures are done while you are mildly sedated or under anesthesia. Your doctor will explain the details of your particular therapy.

Every person is unique and regenerative therapies are not a one-size-fits-all approach. This is why we require a consultation with an Axiom physician partner to assess your condition and determine the best and most effective regenerative therapy for you.

Absolutely. Regardless of your treatment type, location or with imaging guidance - the total price of the treatment is all inclusive.

At this time, regenerative medicine is a cash pay treatment in the United States and not covered by any insurance. Your should check with your physician to determine if a payment plan is available.

Depending on the type of regenerative therapy determined by your physician and if the injection requires image guidance, treatments can range from $1,000 to $7,500.
