Knee Conditions & Treatments
Dr. Nourparvar applies personalized, evidence-based regenerative therapies to address the root cause of pain, helping patients recover without the need for invasive surgery.
What Is Knee Regenerative Therapy?
Regenerative therapy for the knee uses your body’s own healing cells and biologic materials to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and improve joint function. These therapies are designed for patients suffering from degenerative joint conditions, sports injuries, or post-surgical stiffness, without requiring surgery or joint replacement.

Common regenerative treatments include:
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
Concentrated platelets from your own blood, injected into the knee to promote healing
Stem Cell Therapy
Derived from bone marrow or adipose (fat) tissue to help regenerate cartilage and soft tissue
Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
High-energy acoustic waves that stimulate circulation and cellular repair in damaged areas
These treatments are often used together or in sequence to enhance healing, reduce pain, and prolong joint function.
