The Efficacy Of Dr. Peter Wehling’s Regenokine Injection Therapy For Pain Treatment
I have recently started to put more emphasize on looking into the current medical technologies being implemented to treat people who have injuries and pain since I believe that many of the techniques that Non-American scientists are doing right now can be eventually be translated into regenerating epiphyseal hyaline cartilage tissue.
The recent podcasts on the Joe Rogan Podcast with the Biohacker Dave Asprey about the incredible types of medical breakthroughs going on in Europe with stem cell applications for knee treatment and back treatment led to the talk of this German Doctor Peter Wehling and his incredible technique which has been called the Regenokine Injection Therapy. (It is also known as Orthokine.)
If you are a regular reader of the website, you might remember me talking about regenokine/orthokine before when Kobe Bryant when questioned by Terrell Owens mentioned going to Dusseldorf to get his knees treated. I believe that there is a Dr. Chris Renna based in the US who has also studied the Regenokine Therapy but Kobe went to Germany to get it done. Dr. Chris Renna seems to be one of the few physicians who can administer the therapy, and he has two offices in Dallas and Santa Monica. (source)
That trip was for knee treatment.
As Joe Rogan explained in a a superficial way, the therapy involves the individual who gets about half a cup of blood extracted out of them, the blood then put into an oven/autoclave to heat the blood organic constituents, then put into some type of centrifuge, spun to get get the right density material (the yellowish material), and injecting the yellowish liquid back into the area of the body.
The basic idea on why this technique works this: the reason many lower body joint areas, most especially the knees, of humans who exercise vigorously start to go into pain, or become swollen is because of inflammation. Inflammation is the body’s immune system’s natural response when tissue is being irritated. It is inflammation which causes the articular cartilage or synovial joints in the knees to increase in thickness causing un-neccessary pain. The yellowish fluid injected back into the body would prevent that area of the body (aka knee) to not into into the stage of inflammation.
I am going to take a shot in the dark on this issue but based on my and Tyler’s research, the inflammations is most often due to Interleukin-1 and MMP-13 expression which gets activated. The injections is probably able to block the expressions of those cytokine from being activated.
So far, the technique worked very well for Kobe and he recommended it to Alex Rodriguez as well.
If we compare the Regenokine Injection Therapy to say Dr. Steven Sampson’s PRP (Platelet-RIch Plasma) Therapy, then we find that Sampson’s PRP technique does not include the heating of the blood part. They still take some blood out of the patient, but only just centrifuges the blood. Again, the centrifuge will push components of different densities into different layers in the centrifuge glass tube. You just suck up the layer with a much high concentration of Platelets and then reinjected back into the joints. The PRP Therapy seems to work although there have been tests suggesting that it is just a placebo effect when two groups were tested with the control group getting just a saline solution.
