You may remember, we have launched our new regenerative medicine therapy at our Springfield branch at Back and Body. We’ve given you some info about how it works and who will be administrating it at our location.
The two products we’ll be offering to begin with are PolycyteTM jelly and CorecyteTM jelly. Over time we will expand our product base to encompass even more options for helping relieve your pain.
PolycyteTM
This comes from Warton’s jelly, a gelatinous substance from the umbilical cord. It is a minimally manipulated human tissue allograft and is processed to preserve growth factors for homologous use.
The key aspect of this product is the property growth factor cytokines.
CorecyteTM
This also comes from Whatron’s jelly, with the key property of this product being the cushioning and protective elements of Wharton’s jelly. It contains many proteins, pericytes, growth hormones and more.
Here’s a product sheet detailing the properties of said products.
Both Dr Dormer and Back and Body are very confident in this product and spent a great deal of time in identifying the best product to use for our patients to provide them with the best means of reducing pain and improving recovery time.
