KNEE AND HIP PAIN IN STILLWATER, MN
Do you find yourself walking less and doing less because of chronic knee or hip pain? Rivertown Medical Center has a treatment program that provides relief and restores range of motion without surgery, medication, or downtime.
The hips and knees support your body weight for walking and moving about, providing stability and mobility. Injury, arthritic change, or general pain at the hips or knees can keep your joints from working normally and limit your ability to function in life. Most people with knee pain in the Stillwater area are searching for all-natural, less-invasive treatment options. Knee surgeries and knee replacements are available, and so are heavy medications to dull your pain. But do you want the risk of becoming dependent upon these treatments? Or, what if your knee problems can’t be solved with surgery? Or a medication that you may need to take more and more of to handle the pain but never actually solve the problem?

How are hip pain and knee pain treated?
Are you interested in ending your knee pain? Grinding, aching, even “bone on bone” knee pain can now be treated and reversed without any surgery using our advanced program. Knees that are constantly aching, swollen, still, sore or popping may seem unfixable.
Here at Rivertown Medical Center our medical team will work with you to develop an individualized treatment plan to decrease pain, improve motion and strength. We’re dedicated to patients who feel out of options, and that’s why we offer an array of treatments for chronic knee pain therapies which include regenerative cell therapy and enriched plasma.
Regenerative cell therapy: regenerative cells are the natural building blocks of life. They are remarkable in their ability to replicate and regenerate tissue. Pro athletes who have received regenerative cell therapy include Kobe Bryant and Tiger Woods along with other well-known celebrities. Rivertown Medical Center is proud to be able to offer this treatment to our patients.
Enriched plasma treatments involve taking your own blood, removing other elements of the blood that aren’t essential to our purposes, and injecting the concentrated platelets and plasma into your knee. Your blood contains many substances that your body naturally produces to help you heal—platelets, growth factors, and cytokines. We use enriched plasma to deliver a much-needed dose of these healing factors at the site of your knee pain.
