PRP and Stem Cell Injections for Hip Arthritis (Osteoarthritis) offered in Estero, Florida.

Struggling with persistent stiffness, aching, or pain in your hip that makes walking, standing, or even sleeping uncomfortable?

These are common signs of hip arthritis (osteoarthritis), a degenerative joint condition that occurs when the cartilage cushioning the hip joint wears down over time.

At Integrative Rehab Medicine, we specialize in advanced non-surgical and regenerative therapies to reduce pain, improve mobility, and help restore your quality of life without relying on joint replacement surgery.

Common Symptoms of Hip Arthritis (Osteoarthritis)

  • Deep aching pain in the groin or buttock
  • Stiffness, especially after rest or in the morning
  • Pain that worsens with walking, standing, or weight-bearing activities
  • Grinding, popping, or catching sensations in the hip joint
  • Limited range of motion, making it difficult to bend, cross legs, or put on shoes

What causes Hip Arthritis (Osteoarthritis)

Hip osteoarthritis develops gradually as the protective cartilage that cushions the hip joint breaks down. This leads to bone-on-bone friction, inflammation, and joint damage. Contributing factors include aging, prior hip injuries, repetitive stress from physical activity, obesity, genetics, or developmental issues such as hip dysplasia. As the condition progresses, bone spurs may form, pain increases, and hip function declines, making even simple daily tasks challenging.

Accurate Diagnosis is Key

At Integrative Rehab Medicine, we use a comprehensive diagnostic approach to identify the extent of cartilage loss, inflammation, and biomechanical dysfunction. This includes:

  • Comprehensive physical examination assessing hip movement and strength
  • X-rays or MRI to identify cartilage loss, joint space narrowing, or bone changes
  • Musculoskeletal ultrasound for real-time imaging of joint structures and surrounding tissues

This allows us to tailor a comprehensive regenerative treatment plan specific to your injury and functional goals.

Contrary to popular opinion not all hip arthritis needs to be treated surgically. Many patients can be effectively treated non-surgically with regenerative injections.

Regenerative Treatment Options

We specialize in non-surgical regenerative orthopedic solutions designed to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes and restore joint health.

  • Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy – PRP contains growth factors that accelerate tissue repair. PRP injections can reduce inflammation, improve collagen remodeling, and promote long-term healing of the joint. PRP works best for more mild to moderate arthritis.
  • Stem Cell Therapy – We utilize Bone Marrow Stem Cells to support tissue regeneration and repair, particularly for more severe hip arthritis. Through the release of growth factors, stem cells regulate the local immune response, decrease inflammation and stimulate tissue growth. Stem Cells have been shown to be very effective for treating hip osteoarthritis even moderate to severe arthritis.
  • Prolotherapy – For more mild arthritis or when people are dealing with tendinosis or instability Prolotherapy can be used to strengthen the ligaments and tendons surrounding the hip to provide improved stability and reduce pain.

Complementary Treatments

In addition to regenerative injections, we incorporate evidence-based complementary therapies to enhance recovery and long-term hip function:

  • 1-on-1 Physical Therapy – Work directly with a licensed physical therapist to strengthen and re-educate muscles of the hip. This neuromuscular reprogramming helps restore movement patterns and reduce reinjury risk.

I have seen spinal surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, and gotten trigger point injections. Nothing made my chronic low back pain better. Once I went to Dr. Sebastian and his clinic, they reviewed my MRIs and X-Rays, did a physical assessment, and quickly identified my issue in the first visit. I was hesitant to continue with the PRP procedure in my pelvis and low back, since I have been in constant pain for 11 months and had many failures with injections. I am now a little over 2 months post-PRP procedure, back to running and lifting with no pain. I am extremely grateful for Dr. Sebastian and his entire staff, who were welcoming and supportive every day I came into the clinic!
Response from the owner:Thank you for trusting Integrative Rehab Medicine in Estero, Florida with your back pain care. We understand how discouraging chronic low back pain can be after seeing multiple specialists without relief. We’re glad that a comprehensive assessment allowed Dr. Sebastian Klisiewicz to identify the source of your, and better yet, an effective back pain treatment with PRP injections and specific rehabilitation. Hearing that you’re back to running and lifting pain-free just over two months after your PRP procedure is incredibly rewarding. Our team is committed to providing care in a safe environment while supporting our patients every step of the way. We’re grateful to be part of your recovery and wish you continued health and strength.

As a medical professional ( anesthesiology) for 40 years Dr Sebastian helped me avoid debilitating back surgery with a six week recovery ( which I scheduled for ) two weeks before my Ozone/ lysated platelet epidural. I am beyond the moon happy with my results. His office is very professional and his PT therapist Christine is also excellent !
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing your experience. Coming from a medical professional with over 40 years in anesthesiology, your perspective truly means a great deal to our entire team.
We’re thrilled to hear that your ozone intradiscal treatment combined with lysated platelet (PRP) epidural injections helped you avoid a major back surgery and a prolonged recovery. At Integrative Rehab Medicine, we love helping patients with herniated and bulging discs find effective, non-surgical alternatives to spine surgery.
Your outcome highlights the power of biologic and regenerative spine treatments—using ozone to reduce disc inflammation and herniation, along with platelet-based therapies to support healing around irritated spinal nerves. We’re also glad to hear your experience with Kristine, our physical therapist, has complemented your recovery.
Thank you again for your words and confidence in our team.

I had suffered from degenerating discs, bulging discs and arthritis in my lower back for 25 years. I initially went to Integrative Rehab Medicine as they offered DiscSeel, which I heard was a great option for me. Although I was a candidate for this, I opted for PRP and prolotherapy. My recovery was a bit longer than o hoped at 8-12 weeks but I am finally pain free and only get discomfort for a day or so with movements that may have had me down for 2 months. The care in office was wonderful with great follow ups. They also allowed my personal trainer into my physical therapy to ensure we were on the same page with my recovery. Five stars and I would highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing your journey. We truly appreciate your trust after living with degenerative discs, bulging discs, and lumbar arthritis for more than 25 years.
While Discseel® can be an excellent option for certain patients, we’re glad you found success with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and prolotherapy—two powerful non-surgical treatments designed to reduce inflammation, support tissue healing, and improve spinal stability. As you experienced, biologic spine treatments often require patience, with healing occurring over weeks to months, but the long-term improvement can be life-changing.
We’re especially happy to hear that you’re now pain-free and that movements which once caused months of setback now result in only brief, mild discomfort. That kind of functional recovery is exactly what we aim for at Integrative Rehab Medicine.
We truly appreciate the recommendation and are honored to be part of your long-term spine health.

I’m so glad that I found Integraive Rehab Medicine and specifically Dr Sebastian. Dr Sebastian was the only doctor who provided a solution to my damaged lower back that made sense and actually worked. After six months after the procedure I can say that Dr Sebastian gave me back the ability to move pain free and enjoy life as I could at my age. He said he is sorry that he couldn’t make me young again, but he and his staff did a miracle for me.
Thank you Integrative Rehab Medicine for changing my life

A true professional, Dr. Sebastian immediately identified my problem and recommended additional injections, which started working literally the next day. I felt initial relief in an area that had been in spasm for the past eight years.

Maggie Castro
From the moment I walked in, I was treated with genuine warmth and respect. The entire team from the front desk staff to the nurses and Dr Floyd & Dr Sebastian were incredibly attentive and professional. They took the time to understand my concerns, explain the treatment plan thoroughly, and ensure all my questions were answered. I never felt rushed. I received calls & emails to check on my progress, ensuring that everything was going smoothly after my visit. I have done PRP & the discseel procedure. It has been a few months now and I am heeling well. Thank you so much to the entire Team!

I have not been here but I have seen Dr. Shiple in PA. He is one of the world's most flawless injectors! From PRP, Stellate Ganglion Block, Vagus Nerve Block, Hydrodissection etc...

He has gotten me out of a bedbound life.

He does even better when Bruce Hornsby is playing during the session 😁
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing such kind words about Dr. Brian Shiple! He is indeed one of the most skilled and experienced regenerative injection specialists in the world, and we’re honored to have him on our team here at Integrative Rehab Medicine in Estero, Florida. It’s inspiring to hear how his advanced techniques—like PRP, Stellate Ganglion Block, Vagus Nerve Block, and ultrasound-guided hydrodissection—helped you reclaim your health and quality of life.
Patrick Gendreau
Dr. Sebastian and his team conducted a thorough review of my MRI, scheduled a Zoom consultation, and performed this transformative procedure—all within one month of my initial inquiry. The procedure was carried out at a state-of-the-art facility, which I would rate as exceptional.

Two months post-procedure, my lower back pain has improved by approximately 95%. Although I still have four months remaining in my recovery timeline, I already feel like a new person. I am now able to sleep comfortably, drive, and sit for extended periods without experiencing persistent discomfort or pain.

I highly recommend scheduling an MRI review to determine whether this procedure may be appropriate for individuals suffering from sciatica, degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, or other spinal issues. This technique represents a remarkable advancement in treatment.
