Alternative Treatments to Surgery for Chronic Pain and Sports Injuries

QC Kinetix is dedicated to helping patients recover from injuries and surgeries by offering non-surgical regenerative medicine in Louisville and Superior, designed to support joint function and mobility. Our treatments target the source of pain in joints, ligaments, and tendons without relying on invasive procedures.

We treat joint pain related to arthritis, sports injuries, and age-related wear. Patients throughout Louisville, Superior, and the greater Boulder County area turn to our regenerative medicine treatments for faster recovery and a return to the activities they love.

Regenerative medicine focuses on the body’s natural ability to heal itself. With PRP and cellular therapies, we help patients recover through minimally invasive procedures, avoiding the scarring, risks, and lengthy downtime that come with surgery.

Living near the Flatirons and Front Range means most of our patients are no strangers to skiing, mountain biking, and trail running. Knee injuries are among the most common conditions we treat, and many patients come to us specifically to explore non-surgical options before committing to an operation.

FAQs About Our Clinic

What does regenerative medicine cost at QC Kinetix Superior?

There is no single price. Your cost depends on the area treated, the treatments recommended, and the number of visits in your plan, and your provider reviews it with you after a consultation and exam. Treatments are typically paid out of pocket, and payment plans are available at our Superior clinic. Individual results vary.

Is financing available and can I use an HSA or FSA?

Yes, financing is available with approved credit through Cherry, a third-party provider, and you can prequalify online before your first visit. Using a health savings account (HSA) or flexible spending account (FSA) depends on your plan’s rules, so check with your administrator first. The lender determines approval, rates, and terms, which vary by applicant. Our team can go over your options at your consultation.

Does insurance cover regenerative medicine?

Generally not. Regenerative medicine treatments such as PRP and BMAC are typically paid out of pocket, and most commercial plans and Medicare do not cover them, often because they are considered elective or still under study. Because plans vary, we suggest asking your insurer. We can also explain costs at your consultation.

How many injections might I need, and how long could results last?

Your provider decides after reviewing the area treated, your pain, your goals, and your health history, so plans are individualized. People respond differently, and we cannot promise a timeline or a specific outcome. Individual results vary.

What are PRP and BMAC, and which one might I need?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) concentrates the platelets, which contain growth factors, from a small sample of your blood and is injected into the area where you feel pain. BMAC (bone marrow aspirate concentrate) is collected from your own bone marrow and contains living cells, growth factors, and proteins that may help decrease inflammation and support joint and soft tissue health. Both are minimally invasive and non-surgical. Your provider recommends one, or a combination, after your consultation. Individual results vary.

Is the injection painful, and how soon can I get back to normal activity?

Treatment involves an injection, and some patients feel temporary soreness, swelling, or bruising at the site. Guidance on returning to activity is individualized, so your provider will explain what to expect for your plan, and we cannot give one timeline for everyone. Your provider also reviews your medical history first to confirm treatment may be appropriate. Individual results vary.

Can regenerative medicine help with back pain?

QC Kinetix addresses the pain associated with back conditions, not the conditions themselves. PRP and BMAC are designed to target the source of pain and support the body’s natural healing processes. Whether treatment may be appropriate depends on what is causing your pain, and your provider decides after reviewing your history and exam. Individual results vary.

Who is a good candidate, and is there an age requirement?

Patients need to be 18 or older. Otherwise, your provider looks at your overall health and what is causing your pain. Treatment is not right for everyone and may not be appropriate during pregnancy or nursing, with active cancer or a compromised immune system, during chemotherapy or radiation, with kidney failure requiring dialysis, or for pain associated with a total joint replacement. If you have questions, call us before booking.

What is the success rate of regenerative medicine, and what have QC Kinetix patients reported?

Regenerative medicine does not have a single success rate, and results differ from person to person. QC Kinetix tracks patient-reported outcomes through DataBiologics, an independent outcomes tracking platform. Among patients reporting, the average Outcome Success Index (OSI), a patient-reported composite score, was 3.95 out of 5.0 at 6 months (n=1,857) and 3.99 out of 5.0 at 2 years (n=243). At 2 years, patients reported an average 1.8-point reduction in pain on a 10-point scale (n=243), approaching the commonly accepted threshold for a clinically meaningful reduction. The 2-year results reflect patients who continued reporting, not all treated patients. These scores are not a success rate or a measure of treatment effectiveness. Individual results vary. Outcomes are based on patient-reported assessments and observational clinical registry data.

Do you serve Louisville, Superior, Lafayette, and Broomfield?

Yes. Our clinic is at 80 Health Park Drive, Suite 230, Louisville, CO 80027, and we welcome patients from Louisville, Superior, Lafayette, Broomfield, Boulder County, and the surrounding Front Range communities. Call or request an appointment online to book.

What happens at my first appointment in Louisville, and can I bring records from another provider?

It is a consultation with one of our highly trained doctors. You discuss your pain, history, and goals, whether that is hiking near the Flatirons, cycling, or skiing. Bring imaging such as an MRI or X-ray and any notes from other providers so we can avoid repeating tests. We also welcome second opinions. You will review treatment options and costs so you can decide with the full picture. Call our clinic or request an appointment online.
