BMAC

Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) is an advanced regenerative therapy that harnesses the healing properties of your own bone marrow to treat pain and promote tissue regeneration. This innovative treatment involves extracting bone marrow from your hip or another site, processing it to concentrate the stem cells and growth factors, and then injecting it directly into the affected area.

How Does BMAC Work?

BMAC utilizes the body’s natural healing capabilities to repair damaged tissues and alleviate pain. The concentrated cells derived from your bone marrow contain a rich supply of mesenchymal stem cells, growth factors, and cytokines. When injected into the site of injury or degeneration, these components can:

• Promote tissue healing and repair
• Reduce inflammation
• Stimulate the regeneration of cartilage and other tissues
• Improve overall function and mobility

Conditions Treated with BMAC

BMAC has shown promising results in managing a variety of pain-related conditions, including:

• Osteoarthritis
• Tendonitis
• Joint injuries
• Degenerative disc disease
• Sports injuries
• Chronic pain conditions

The BMAC Procedure

1. Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough evaluation by our pain management specialist. We’ll discuss your symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals to determine if BMAC is right for you.
2. Bone Marrow Harvesting: A small amount of bone marrow is extracted, usually from the iliac crest (hip bone) using a minimally invasive procedure. This is performed under local anesthesia for your comfort.
3. Processing: The harvested bone marrow is processed to concentrate the stem cells and growth factors. This ensures that we maximize the healing potential of the injection.
4. Injection: The concentrated BMAC is then injected into the target area, such as a joint or tendon. This is done using imaging guidance to ensure precision.
5. Recovery: After the procedure, most patients can resume their normal activities with minimal downtime. Our team will provide you with post-procedure care instructions to optimize your recovery.

Why Choose BMAC?

• Minimally Invasive: The BMAC procedure is performed as an outpatient treatment, minimizing recovery time compared to traditional surgical options.
• Natural Healing: Since BMAC uses your own cells, the risk of rejection or adverse reactions is significantly reduced.
• Tailored Treatment: Each BMAC injection is customized to your specific condition, ensuring a personalized approach to pain management.
