Regenerative
Orthopedics
PRP and regenerative orthopedic injections for joint pain, tendon injuries, and osteoarthritis in Brentwood, Tennessee. Physician-led, part of a coordinated longevity plan.
For Adults With
Joint Pain and Injuries
Regenerative orthopedics at Aeterna is for adults in Brentwood and Nashville with joint pain, tendon injuries, or osteoarthritis who want to avoid surgery and restore function. Dr. Howard uses PRP (platelet-rich plasma), regenerative injections, and coordinated rehabilitation to help your body repair itself — not just mask symptoms.
What You’re
Experiencing
If you are experiencing any of the following, regenerative orthopedics may be the right approach. These are signals that your joints need more than rest and anti-inflammatories.
Persistent knee discomfort, swelling, or stiffness. MRI shows meniscus wear, cartilage loss, or osteoarthritis.
Chronic tendon pain — rotator cuff, Achilles, patellar tendon, tennis elbow — that hasn’t healed with PT or rest.
Osteoarthritis, bone-on-bone findings, or progressive joint decline. You’ve been told surgery is the only option.
An injury that healed structurally but still hurts functionally. Full recovery hasn’t happened.
PRP and Beyond.
Physician-Led.
Part of a Plan.
Dr. Howard uses PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and regenerative orthopedic injections to stimulate your body’s natural repair processes. PRP concentrates growth factors from your own blood and delivers them precisely to the area of injury under imaging guidance.
Beyond PRP, Dr. Howard may combine regenerative injections with stem cell therapy, peptide protocols, and HBOT to amplify healing. Every protocol is individualized based on your imaging, your condition, and your goals.
This is not an injection mill. This is a physician-led practice where regenerative orthopedics is one component of a coordinated longevity plan — addressing not just the joint, but the systemic factors that affect healing.
