What does ECM do to help regenerate tissue?
Cells receive important regulatory signals from their extracellular matrix (ECM) and the physical property of the ECM regulates important cellular behaviors like cell proliferation, migration and differentiation. A large part of tissue formation and regeneration depends on cellular interaction with its ECM.
ExtraCellular
Matrix (ECM) - Stem Cell Therapy
You may have heard about ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM) and ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM) – Stem Cell Therapy and have wondered how they’re being used to treat injury. ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM) – Stem Cell Therapy, also known as regenerative medicine, promotes the repair of diseased, dysfunctional or injured tissue using Extracellular Matrix (ECM). Put simply, ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM) – Stem Cell Therapy delivers results by potentially speeding up healing.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
What is PRP?
Platelet activation plays a key role in the body’s natural healing process. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses injections of a concentration of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles and joints. In this way, PRP injections use each individual patient’s own healing system to improve musculoskeletal problems.

"Dr. Barry & his staff have helped me stay on my feet more than one time. I can't say it enough he goes above and beyond in making sure I understood the directions of care. Following them is all in my court and when I did the healing process was right on target. I have sent friends to him as well - he took good care of them too. Blessed to find an independent doctor that doesn't rush you out his office."
