⚡ Quick Summary: What is BMAC?
For moderate to severe injuries that need a heavy-duty solution, here is what you need to know:
- What it is: An advanced treatment that uses the concentrated regenerative cells found deep inside your bone marrow.
- How it works: These cells are the master builders of your body. We harvest them from your hip bone and deliver them directly to your injury.
- The “General Contractor” Analogy: If PRP is the fertilizer, BMAC is the general contractor. It does not just provide materials, it organizes the entire repair project, bringing in the right crews to rebuild damaged tissue.
- The ROSM Difference: We use specialized analgesic techniques to make the harvest process virtually painless, a level of comfort most clinics cannot offer.
The Ultimate Non-Surgical Option
BMAC is often the final stop for patients who have been told they have no choice but surgery. By tapping into your body’s deepest regenerative reserves, we can often jumpstart healing in tissues that have stopped trying to fix themselves.
What Conditions Can BMAC Help?
- Moderate to severe joint degeneration and pain, especially in the knee, hip, and ankle.
- Cartilage damage, including small defects or potholes in the joint surface.
- Non-healing soft tissue injuries, including large tendon tears in the shoulder and hip.
- Early-stage bone health issues, including cases of reduced blood supply to bone tissue.
Hip pain like this is one of the most common reasons patients turn to BMAC, which is harvested from the hip bone itself to treat the injury.
The ROSM Standard: Comfort and Precision
- Virtually Painless Harvesting: Our proprietary nerve block techniques make the harvest process extremely comfortable. Most of our patients are surprised by how little they feel.
- Double-Spin Concentration: We use a sophisticated two-cycle process to ensure the highest possible concentration of master builder cells.
- Millimeter Precision: Using X-ray or ultrasound guidance, we ensure these powerful cells land exactly on the site of the injury.
The Journey: What to Expect
- Step 1, The Comfort Block: We use proprietary nerve block techniques and local numbing to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure.
- Step 2, The Harvest: We draw a small amount of marrow from the back of your pelvic bone using ultrasound to map the area safely.
- Step 3, The Concentration: Your marrow is concentrated in a specialized centrifuge to create the BMAC blueprint.
- Step 4, The Injection: The cells are injected with precision guidance. The whole process takes about 90 minutes.
Your bone marrow concentrate after the double-spin centrifuge process, ready to be delivered to the injury with precision guidance.
A note on cost: BMAC is an orthobiologic treatment, and most insurance plans currently classify it as investigational, meaning it is usually paid for out of pocket. HSA or FSA funds can typically be used to cover the cost. Coverage varies by plan, so the clearest way to know where you stand is a quick conversation with our team. Here is why insurance often works this way for regenerative treatments.
