What is Orthobiologics (Regenerative Medicine)?

Short answer: Orthobiologics use your body’s own healing components—like platelets or bone-marrow–derived cells—delivered with precise, image-guided injections to calm inflammation, reduce pain, and help tissues repair. At Primal Orthobiologics, we specialize in interventional, ultrasound-guided procedures for musculoskeletal pain so you can move, train, and live with less limitation.

Why patients choose orthobiologics?

  • Uses your own biology (autologous) or carefully selected biologic materials

  • Targets the root cause of pain (tendon, ligament, joint, or nerve entrapment)

  • Delivered with ultrasound or fluoroscopic guidance for pinpoint accuracy

  • Minimal downtime compared with surgery

  • Can delay or reduce the need for surgical intervention in appropriate cases
