- JGjoanne giovannucciMar 18, 20255.0I am a women who enjoys walking. My pain in my knees and also experience being bite by a tick, which causes Lyme disease to my body, has made this very difficult. Horrible and dilberating pain set in 3 yrs ago. I went seeking relief to my primary dr. then which led to Orthopedic drs, who suggested cortizone shots which led to Gel shots. Both suggested course of procedures that gave me relief, but did not last. I saw Dr. Barry Ruht on a commercial on our local T.V. channel. I decided to, with much apprehensive, to set a appt. I was very skeptical at first, but when nothing but hope was left for me, I agreed to treatment. I felt very comfortable with the staff and their empathy, I was impressed with the knowledge of Dr, Ruht. Its been 6 weeks since my injection to both of my knees with ECM, I must say and believe, at this point and time, the medicine used rejuvenated my health, my hope is now restored, and look forward to a promise that was fullfilled, from breakthroughs in cell therapy. Thank you Dr, Ruht!!! You and your staff are amazing!!! May you all continue to succeed, and bring many smiles to people like me!!!
- EGEric GMar 15, 20255.0I was referred to Dr. Ruht in 2007 when I was looking for an Orthopedic Surgeon to resolve numbness in both hands. After my examination and therapy, I was scheduled for carpal tunnel surgery. He operated on each of my hands at separate times and I no longer have any issues. Subsequent to that, I have also had two trigger finger surgeries and arthroscopic surgery on my knee to repair a torn meniscus. Dr. Ruht is a very competent orthopedic surgeon and is now providing ECM (extra cellular matrix) treatments for those who prefer non-surgical treatments in an office setting.
- TTTJPJan 3, 20251.0I was almost scammed by one of these places around 5 years ago. They claimed to restore my lung health with my own stem cells and blood. I asked my doctor, he said it was an attempt to get money back for research in this area and it doesn't work.
- JKJenny KulpMar 27, 20245.0Dr Ruht saved my life a year ago. He along with his staff are truly compassionate & have the best bedside manner when it comes to listening & testing patients. I’d recommend this office 10-fold!
Frequently Asked Questions About RejuvenateYourHealth
What is ECM (Extra Cellular Matrix) Therapy?
ECM Therapy, also known as regenerative medicine, is a treatment that promotes the repair of diseased, dysfunctional, or injured tissue using the Extra Cellular Matrix.
What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?
PRP Therapy is a non-surgical treatment that harnesses the healing properties of platelets from a patient's own blood to promote tissue repair.
What conditions can be treated with PRP and ECM therapies?
These therapies are effective for a wide range of conditions, including osteoarthritis, tendon strains, ligament sprains, muscle tears, and more. They can help restore function, reduce pain, and potentially avoid the need for surgery.
Are PRP and ECM treatments safe?
Yes, treatments like PRP and ECM are generally considered safe because they use substances derived from your own body, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or rejection. Our team follows strict protocols to ensure the highest safety standards.
Are ECM (Extra Cellular Matrix) Injections Painful?
Local anesthesia will be used for the procedure, which does not require general anesthesia or hospitalization. The injected area should be comfortable following the local anesthesia injection immediately before the ECM (Extra Cellular Matrix) injection.
Following the procedure there may be discomfort for 1-3 days. Prescription analgesics will be discussed, and prescriptions will be provided individually.
Most patients report very little discomfort with the procedure and mild pain afterward. In weeks 1 and 2, there may be noticeable inflammation in the treated area, which is normal since your immune system is getting to work.
Are PRP Injections Safe?
Injections of platelets are safe since you're using your body's own blood components and there are no foreign substances being injected. The only noted risk in clinical trials was the possibility of infection which is not unique to platelet injections. Anytime a person undergoes an injection there is this risk. Since there are no foreign bodies being injected and there is no concern of disease transmission, PRP therapy is considered safe.
Who can benefit from PRP and ECM therapies?
PRP and ECM therapies are suitable for individuals suffering from chronic pain, osteoarthritis, tendon injuries, ligament strains, and muscle tears. Patients looking for non-surgical alternatives to conditions such as knee, shoulder, or hip pain can consider these therapies.
How long does it take to feel the effects of ECM or PRP therapy?
Many patients report feeling improvement within weeks after the procedure. Results vary, but most people start to feel significant relief by the fifth to seventh week following treatment, with continued improvement over several months.
What are the advantages of regenerative medicine over traditional surgery?
Regenerative medicine is minimally invasive, has shorter recovery times, and often eliminates the need for hardware or extensive rehabilitation associated with surgeries.
Can regenerative medicine help avoid surgery?
Yes, many patients who undergo PRP or ECM treatments are able to avoid major surgical procedures, such as joint replacements.
How do ECM injections work?
ECM Therapy involves injecting extracellular matrix material into the injured or arthritic area. This minimally invasive procedure leverages the body's natural processes to speed up healing, with minimal risk of rejection and reduced recovery time compared to traditional surgical methods.
Is ECM Therapy effective?
ECM Therapy aims to repair tissues by utilizing the body's natural healing processes. Proponents of ECM Therapy point to clinical studies that have shown generally positive results. The science behind ECM Therapy is constantly expanding, and RejuvenateYourHealth continues to be on the cutting edge of training and techniques in this field.
