Orthobiologics

Harness your body's natural healing power.

Living with pain, stiffness, or limited movement doesn’t have to mean surgery or a lifetime of medications. Orthobiologics uses your body’s own healing cells to stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and help you move better, feel better, and live better.

What are Orthobiologics?

Orthobiologics refers to biological substances — like platelets, or stem cells derived from bone marrow or fat tissue — that are used to help injured muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints heal.

At the Albano Clinic, we precisely place these healing cells using ultrasound guidance to target the injured tissue — so you get maximum benefit with minimal downtime.

Benefits of Orthobiologics:

  • Promotes your body’s natural healing process

  • Minimally invasive (often simple injections)

  • May delay or even prevent surgery

  • Can reduce inflammation and pain

  • Usually shorter recovery time than surgery

Orthobiologic Treatment Options

We offer a range of treatment options, customized for each patient:

  • Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): Concentrated platelets from your own blood to jump-start healing
  • Bone Marrow Cell Therapy: Stem-cell-rich material from your bone marrow to support tissue repair
  • Adipose (Fat-Based) Cell Therapy: Harnesses regenerative cells from your own fat tissue

Bridge Treatments:

Sometimes you just need help managing pain until you’re ready for a full treatment or surgery. We also offer:

  • Prolotherapy with Dextrose
  • Hyaluronic Acid Injections

A Smart Investment In My Health

Coming to Dr. Albano and investing the time and money into the treatment he recommended was a wonderful decision. The process of recovery was challenging at times, and I am still not able to do 100% of the physical activities that I would like to be doing, but I am seeing improvements every week. I have gained so much functionality in my knee and I am doing things with less pain and more confidence. I am so happy to found Dr. Albano and his team!

A doctor I Trust

Dr. Albano is fantastic. As a physician, I am very picky as to who I would allow to perform procedures on me. And I trust Dr. Albano to treat my pain. Thanks Joe!

Living Pain Free

I am 6 weeks out from my PRP/stem cell treatment and have found so much improvement and less pain. Dr. Albano and his staff are so professional and explained everything to me. I was impressed with the ultrasound he gave me to determine just what my problem was. I would recommend the Albano Clinic to anyone who is looking for an alternative to surgery, cortisone injections, etc.

The Relief of a Full Recovery

I have been in some pretty intense pain with sciatica and a herniated disc. I came to Albano clinic and they got right on it for setting me up for full recovery. I have appreciated the personal touch and the feeling that my health and experience is very important to them. Dr. Joe, explains things clearly and really looks into getting you on the correct path for you, and not just a generic "fix-all" experience. His concern is that you are set on the right path to recovery...

Dr. Albano knows what's best!

Doctor Albano is quite sympathetic to my desires to keep my 50+ self going. I have been seeing him for nine year go and he has kept my bad hip, achilles(x2), elbow, shoulder and now knee in good enough condition to continue skiing and playing lacrosse. Very Good Doctor with great way about him.

Regenerative Medicine Works

Traditional medicine would have had me in invasive surgical procedures years ago! Thankfully I found Dr. Albano who has the experience to know that surgery isn't the first line of medicine.
