The Patient Guide to Orthobiologics

Orthobiologics can include very different treatments—from prolotherapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) and adipose tissue scaffolding (ATS). This handbook explains how those options differ, how Wellward evaluates candidacy, and why diagnosis, preparation, rehabilitation, and the healing environment matter as much as the product being injected.
