Stem Cell and PRP Procedures for Shoulder Injuries, Arthritis, and Rotator Cuff Tears
Shoulder pain can make even the simplest activities a daily challenge. Lifting your arm to reach overhead, putting on a shirt, or carrying groceries can become painful and frustrating. For athletes and active individuals, shoulder injuries may interfere with throwing, lifting, or performing at their best. Over time, shoulder pain can limit mobility and decrease quality of life.

How Regenerative Medicine May Help Reduce Shoulder Pain and Restore Function
Instead of relying on surgery or temporary symptom relief from steroid injections, regenerative therapies such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) are designed to stimulate the body’s own healing response. Using advanced image-guided injections, these treatments deliver concentrated healing cells and growth factors directly into the injured shoulder. The goal is to reduce pain, improve function, and support long-term recovery.
Shoulder and Rotator Cuff Stem Cell and PRP Procedures at RegenOrthoSport
Dr. Venkatesh Movva specializes in non-surgical, regenerative therapies for shoulder injuries and conditions, including:
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): Concentrated platelets from your own blood are used to stimulate tissue healing and reduce inflammation.
- Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC): Stem cells and growth factors from your bone marrow are injected to support repair of damaged tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.
Common Shoulder Conditions Treated
- Rotator cuff tears and tendonitis
- Shoulder arthritis
- Labral tears
- Bursitis
- Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
- Sports-related or overuse injuries
This is not a complete list, so please contact us if you have questions about whether you or your knee condition can be treated with these non-surgical procedures.

Why Consider Regenerative PRP or Stem Cell Injections Before Invasive Surgery or Steroids?
For many patients, traditional treatment options for shoulder pain involve either corticosteroid injections or surgery, such as rotator cuff repair or shoulder replacement. Steroid injections may provide short-term pain relief but do not encourage healing, and repeated use can weaken tissue. Surgical procedures may restore function in some cases but often require long recovery periods and carry risk of complications.
Regenerative injections with PRP or BMAC focus on helping the body repair itself. By promoting natural healing, these procedures may improve mobility and strength, reduce pain, and potentially delay or avoid the need for invasive surgery.

How Stem Cell Procedures and Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection Procedures Work
How Stem Cell Procedures Work
Stem cell injection procedures are a minimally invasive treatment designed to help the body repair orthopedic injuries and degenerative conditions. The process begins with collecting bone marrow, which contains stem cells, from the iliac crest of the pelvis. This sample is processed in a centrifuge to create bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), which contains stem cells, growth factors, and other healing components.
Using precise ultrasound or X-ray guidance, the concentrate is injected directly into the injured or arthritic area. Once delivered, these cells release signals that reduce inflammation, encourage tissue repair, and stimulate long-term healing.
Unlike steroid injections or pain medications, which only mask symptoms, stem cell therapy attempts to target the root cause of pain. It is commonly used for arthritis, meniscus injuries, ligament sprains, and tendon damage, offering patients a potential alternative to surgery. Many experience gradual improvement in pain and mobility over the weeks to months following the procedure.
How Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Works
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) procedures are a regenerative treatment that uses your own blood to support healing in injured joints, tendons, and ligaments. The procedure begins with a blood draw, which is then placed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate platelets. These platelets contain powerful growth factors that play a key role in tissue repair.
Once prepared, the PRP solution is precisely injected into the injured or painful area using ultrasound or X-ray guidance. The concentrated platelets release signals that stimulate natural healing, reduce inflammation, and encourage tissue regeneration.
Unlike cortisone injections, which typically provide temporary symptom relief, PRP is designed to promote long-term repair. It is often used for arthritis, tendon injuries such as tennis elbow or rotator cuff problems, ligament sprains, and sports-related conditions. Many patients experience gradual improvement in function and reduced pain over several weeks to months following treatment.
