Cutting-Edge Pain Relief Without Surgery with Dr. John Pitts (Ep 113)

In this episode of the Bendy Bodies podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein talks with Dr. John Pitts, an expert in regenerative medicine, about non-surgical pain relief options for hypermobility and chronic pain. They discuss various treatments such as prolotherapy, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and stem cell therapies that can assist in tissue healing and improve function without the need for surgery. Dr. Pitts emphasizes the importance of early treatment of hypermobile joints to prevent long-term damage and the potential benefits of these regenerative approaches for conditions like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). He explains that these treatments work by stimulating the body's natural healing processes and can be tailored specifically for EDS patients. The conversation also highlights the importance of proper assessment before treatment and the safety and efficacy of these procedures compared to traditional surgery.
