Sports Injuries
Regenerative therapy may help support healing for sports-related injuries to tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints.
Understanding Sports Injuries
Athletes and active individuals often face injuries that can sideline them from the activities they love. Whether from acute trauma or chronic overuse, these injuries can be frustrating, especially when they don't respond to conventional treatment.
Many soft tissue injuries—particularly tendons—have limited blood supply, which can slow natural healing. Regenerative therapy aims to deliver healing support directly to these areas.
At GENIX, we work with athletes of all levels who are seeking alternatives to surgery or want to support their body's natural recovery process.

Getting You Back in the Game
We understand that athletes have unique concerns—you want to return to your sport as quickly and safely as possible. Our approach considers your specific activity demands and recovery goals.
Regenerative therapy may be particularly useful for injuries that haven't healed with rest and physical therapy, or for those who want to explore alternatives to surgery.
It's important to have realistic expectations—while some athletes experience significant improvement, results vary and are not guaranteed.
Recovery Timeline
Recovery from regenerative treatment varies by injury type and individual. Most athletes follow a gradual return-to-activity protocol over several weeks to months. During your consultation, we'll discuss realistic timelines for your specific situation.
