Stem Cell Therapy for Triathletes Gaining Popularity

stem-cell-therapy-for-triathletes-knees

A triathlete puts a lot of strain on their knee. But, if you have previously injured your knee and had surgery, that strain is much greater.

It is now known that trauma accelerates arthritis and surgery is another form of trauma, therefore being a triathlete with a prior history of knee surgery it was not a surprise when Dr. Lox examined a triathlete’s knees and found signs of arthritis.

The triathlete was adamant that they continue to participate in events and run. The triathlete choose to undergo stem cell therapy to calm down and repair the aching knees. Dr. Lox explained in great detail the strain that would be placed on their knees in the future and the triathlete agreed to take 3 months off after the stem cell procedure.

Athletes (triathletes, included) are fanatics about their sports and this one was no exception. Dr. Lox has worked with professional athletes and arriving at a game plan after the stem cell procedure is an important part of their treatment. This is individualized for each patient. Stem cell therapy, for triathletes in particular, is gaining popularity – mostly because of the less-invasive and less-traumatic nature of the procedure and the prospect for long-term health.
