Regenerative Medicine in Santa Rosa Beach, FL
Regenerative care for Santa Rosa Beach residents that pairs advanced therapies with hands-on rehab and corrective care.
A Local Option for Regenerative Medicine in Santa Rosa Beach
Santa Rosa Beach is a growing South Walton community of beach neighborhoods and coastal dune lakes. For many residents, our clinic in Fort Walton Beach is a reasonable drive of about 47 minutes along US 98.
Our approach to regenerative care aims to help patients avoid or delay unwanted surgeries and joint replacements, and to avoid addictive pain medications. It combines advanced therapies with work to retrain and stabilize the injured area.
Regenerative Therapies We Offer
EPAT (shockwave) therapy is delivered through the skin with a small handheld device similar to an ultrasound wand. It is designed to jump-start the body's ability to regenerate tissue and may ease pain by stimulating nerves at the injury site.
We also look at the biomechanics that led to your injury. Corrective care may include off-loading knee braces, foot orthotics with a heel lift for a leg length difference, corrective posture exercises, physical rehab, manual therapy, acupuncture, and chiropractic care.
Conditions We Commonly Address
We often discuss regenerative medicine for:
- Osteoarthritis and joint pain
- Tendon and ligament injuries
- Soft tissue injuries that are slow to heal
- Long-term wear and tear or degenerative arthritis
- Injuries from auto accidents or work
For the longest-lasting results, corrective care and retraining of your body mechanics are an important part of the plan, alongside any injection or shockwave treatment.
If you are unsure where your symptoms are coming from, that is fine. Sorting that out is a normal part of the first appointment.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Knowing what to expect can take a lot of stress out of a first appointment. Here is how regenerative medicine usually begins for patients coming from Santa Rosa Beach:
Request an appointment online or call (850) 226-6728. No referral is needed, and our staff can verify your insurance benefits before treatment.
A detailed health history and physical exam, checking range of motion, orthopedic tests, and muscle strength, with X-rays only when medically necessary.
We review your history, imaging, and goals, then explain which regenerative options, such as stem cells, PRP, or EPAT, may fit, along with the corrective care that supports them.
We explain what we found, answer your questions, and build a personalized plan, then adjust it as you progress.
If something is not helping, we change course. Our providers work closely together and keep looking for options that fit you.
Care Close to Home for Santa Rosa Beach
Many Santa Rosa Beach residents want to keep up their active coastal lifestyle without surgery if possible. When joint or tendon problems persist, regenerative options are often part of the discussion.
The drive from Santa Rosa Beach is roughly 25 miles. Head north from CR 30A to US 98, follow it west through Destin and over the Brooks Bridge into Fort Walton Beach, then on to 24 Beal Pkwy.
Santa Rosa Beach's neighbors, including Miramar Beach to the west and Seaside and Freeport nearby, are also within reach of our Fort Walton Beach clinic.
Why Our Regenerative Medicine Stands Out
Here is what you can count on when you come to us from Santa Rosa Beach:
- Corrective care that addresses the biomechanics behind injuries
- A goal of avoiding or delaying surgery and addictive medications
- Chiropractic, medical, rehab, and massage staff work together on your plan
- Plans explained in plain language, with time for your questions
Lisa Haik, APRN, FNP-BC, brings more than 25 years of health care experience and is certified in ultrasound-guided joint injections and trigger point injections. She works alongside Dr. Erik Persiani, D.C., and our rehab and massage staff.
We also believe care should fit your budget. Our office keeps a pricing structure designed to allow care for all budgets.
Common Questions From Santa Rosa Beach Patients
Can you combine regenerative therapies in one care plan?
Yes. Depending on your condition, a plan may combine stem cell injections, PRP, and EPAT with physical rehab, bracing, and chiropractic care. Our team explains how each piece fits before you start.
Where is your clinic, and how do I get there from Santa Rosa Beach?
Most Santa Rosa Beach patients reach us in about 47 minutes. Take US 98 (Emerald Coast Parkway) west through Destin and across Okaloosa Island into Fort Walton Beach, then follow Beal Parkway.
How long does regenerative medicine usually take?
It depends on the therapy. A stem cell injection is a single appointment with zero downtime. After a PRP injection, it can take six to eight weeks to assess how your body responds, and EPAT is given over several sessions. Corrective care visits are scheduled around these treatments. For patients making the trip from Santa Rosa Beach, we try to combine treatments in one visit when that is appropriate, to save you extra drives.
Is regenerative medicine covered by insurance?
Most insurance plans are accepted at our office, including Medicare. Since coverage varies from plan to plan, our staff will check your benefits and explain them before treatment, at no charge. If you have little or no coverage, flexible payment programs can be arranged. Coverage for some treatments differs from plan to plan, so we will go over your options before you decide.
What should I wear to my regenerative medicine appointment?
Wear loose clothing that gives easy access to the treatment area. If PRP is planned, a short-sleeved shirt makes the blood draw easier. With a drive of about 47 minutes from Santa Rosa Beach, choose clothes that are comfortable both in the car and on the treatment table.
What is the difference between PRP and stem cell therapy?
PRP uses platelets concentrated from your own blood to stimulate healing. Stem cell therapy at our clinic uses screened Wharton's Jelly tissue from donated umbilical cords. Both aim to support the body's natural repair processes.
