Alpha-2 Macroglobulin: A Natural Breakthrough Against Cartilage and Joint Degeneration
Alpha-2 Macroglobulin (A2M): A Natural Defense Against Cartilage and Joint Degeneration Inflammation is a double-edged sword—it is essential for healing, but when uncontrolled, it can lead to chronic pain, tissue destruction, and degenerative conditions. In regenerative medicine, one of the biggest challenges is managing excessive inflammation and tissue breakdown, especially in osteoarthritis, autoimmune conditions, and […]
The Science of Wound Healing: Supporting Each Phase for Optimal Recovery
The Science of Wound Healing: Supporting Each Phase for Optimal Recovery Wound healing is a remarkable process that unfolds in four distinct but overlapping phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Each phase plays a critical role in restoring tissue integrity after an injury, with specific cells, nutrients, and signals working in harmony to repair damage. […]

From Pain to Possibility: How Regenerative Medicine Can Help You Move Again https://youtu.be/isQfRUDEzcA I am excited to announce a talk about regenerative medicine at the Friendship Village retirement community in Tempe, Arizona that I gave with my team, Dr. Sarah Trahan and Dr. Alaa Gerais, at the Neil Riordan Center for Regenerative Medicine. This presentation […]
An Overview of Regenerative Medicine: Techniques, Products, and Path to Healing
An Overview of Regenerative Injections: Techniques, Products, and Path to Healing Dr. Dunning believe in harnessing the body’s natural healing capacity to address pain and dysfunction. She recently had the privilege of presenting an overview of regenerative medicine to Athletico Physical Therapy. This session highlighted innovative approaches to healing that offer alternatives or complements to […]
Understanding and Minimizing Radiation Exposure During Fluoroscopy-Guided Injections
Understanding and Minimizing Radiation Exposure During Fluoroscopy-Guided Injections Fluoroscopy is an invaluable tool in interventional and naturopathic regenerative pain management. Its ability to provide real-time imaging during procedures makes it the gold standard for precision-guided spine injections and other interventional techniques. This advanced imaging modality enables practitioners to deliver targeted treatments with unparalleled accuracy, minimizing […]

The Debate: Optimizing Concentrations Dextrose Prolotherapy for Regenerative Healing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhKKyXFbrjU Exploring Prolotherapy: A Debate on Dextrose Concentrations Prolotherapy, a regenerative treatment involving the injection of dextrose solutions to stimulate tissue repair, has gained attention for its potential in managing musculoskeletal pain. I am the faculty lead of the Regenerative Medicine Honor’s Track at Sonoran University […]
The Non-Surgical and Opioid Alternative to Chronic Pain: Regenerative Injections
Chronic pain is a widespread issue, affecting 20% of adults worldwide and leading to significant personal, social, and economic consequences. In the United States alone, over 50 million adults suffer from chronic pain, with nearly 20 million experiencing high-impact chronic pain that limits daily activities. Historically, treatment options for these conditions have often included surgery or opioids—both of which carry considerable risks. Regenerative medicine, particularly injection therapies, offers a safer, effective, and evidence-based alternative.
