Frequently Asked Questions
Which shoulder injuries respond to stem-cell therapy?
Partial rotator-cuff tears, chronic tendonitis, SLAP or labral frays, early arthritis and bursitis are common targets for image-guided shoulder stem-cell treatment.
How does regenerative stem-cell therapy help shoulder healing?
Mesenchymal cells from your marrow or fat release growth factors that may calm inflammation, remodel collagen and support long-term tendon and cartilage repair.
Can stem-cell injections replace arthroscopic shoulder surgery?
For many active adults with partial tears or degenerative changes, non-surgical shoulder stem-cell therapy can postpone—or sometimes avoid—arthroscopic repair.
What imaging guides the shoulder stem-cell injection?
High-resolution ultrasound, and fluoroscopy when needed, place the cell concentrate precisely into the rotator-cuff tendon, labrum or glenohumeral joint.
How soon can I resume overhead activities?
After 48 hours of rest, gentle range-of-motion work begins; resistance training and sports like tennis or pitching typically return in six–eight weeks.
How long do results from shoulder stem-cell therapy last?
Many patients enjoy pain relief and improved motion for 9–18 months or longer, especially when combined with targeted physiotherapy at NTX Regen Center in Dallas-Fort Worth.
