First Visit & General
What should I expect during my first visit?
Your first visit typically lasts 45-60 minutes and includes a comprehensive health history review, physical examination, and if necessary, diagnostic imaging. Dr. Lonnie Peets will discuss your symptoms, goals, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Do I need a referral to see you?
No, you do not need a referral to schedule an appointment with us. You can call our office directly at (505) 404-9555 or contact us through our website.
What should I wear to my appointment?
We recommend wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for easy movement. Avoid restrictive clothing like tight jeans or dresses. If needed, we have gowns available.
How long do appointments typically last?
Initial consultations last approximately 45-60 minutes. Follow-up treatment visits are typically 30-60 minutes depending on the procedures being performed.
Is regenerative medicine safe?
Yes, regenerative treatments like HCT therapy, PRP, and exosome therapy are safe, minimally invasive alternatives to surgery. Dr. Lonnie Peets has extensive training and uses proven protocols to ensure the safest, most effective outcomes for each patient.
HCT & Regenerative Therapy
What is HCT therapy?
Human Cellular Tissue (HCT) therapy capitalizes on the unique properties of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and promote natural healing. These cells can differentiate into various tissue types, making them effective for treating joint pain, arthritis, and musculoskeletal conditions.
What is PRP therapy and how does it work?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses your own blood, processed to concentrate healing platelets, which is then injected into the injured area. The growth factors in platelets accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation.
What is exosome therapy?
Exosome therapy uses powerful cell-signaling molecules that direct your body's repair processes. Exosomes carry growth factors and proteins that reduce inflammation, promote tissue regeneration, and accelerate healing.
How long until I see results from regenerative treatments?
Results vary by treatment and individual. Some patients notice improvement within weeks, while optimal results from treatments like PRP or HCT therapy may take 2-3 months as the body regenerates tissue.
How many treatments will I need?
Treatment plans vary based on your condition, severity, and health goals. Some patients find significant relief after a single treatment, while others benefit from a series of treatments. Dr. Lonnie Peets will recommend a personalized plan during your consultation.
Pain & Conditions
What conditions do you treat?
We treat a wide range of musculoskeletal and chronic pain conditions including back pain, knee pain, hip pain, shoulder pain, arthritis, sciatica, neuropathy, spinal stenosis, sports injuries, and more.
Can regenerative medicine help me avoid surgery?
Many patients who were told they need joint replacement or other surgery find lasting relief through our regenerative treatments. Stem cell therapy and PRP can repair damaged cartilage, tendons, and ligaments naturally.
What is shockwave therapy?
Shockwave therapy uses acoustic wave energy to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. It's effective for chronic pain, tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and musculoskeletal conditions, with no surgery or medication needed.
What is ozone therapy?
Ozone therapy uses activated oxygen to stimulate your body's natural healing mechanisms. It increases oxygen delivery to tissues, activates the immune system, and is effective for joint pain, infections, and chronic conditions.
Aesthetics & Wellness
What aesthetic services do you offer?
We offer PRP facials, stem cell facials, exosome facials, Alma Opus plasma treatments, BioSculpt body contouring, and red light therapy. These treatments rejuvenate skin, reduce signs of aging, and promote a youthful appearance.
What is body contouring?
Body contouring is a non-invasive treatment that helps reduce stubborn fat and tighten skin. Our BioSculpt technology targets specific areas, helping you achieve your desired body shape without surgery or downtime.
How many aesthetic treatment sessions do I need?
Most patients see optimal results with a series of treatments, depending on the specific service and individual goals. We'll create a customized treatment plan during your consultation.
Is there downtime after aesthetic treatments?
Most of our aesthetic treatments have minimal to no downtime. You can typically return to normal activities immediately. Specific aftercare instructions will be provided based on your treatment.
Weight Loss & Additional Services
What weight loss programs do you offer?
We offer medically supervised weight loss programs that combine advanced treatments with nutrition guidance and lifestyle support. Our approach addresses the underlying factors that contribute to weight gain.
What is red light therapy?
Red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular energy production, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue healing. It's effective for pain relief, skin rejuvenation, and overall wellness.
Do you treat neuropathy?
Yes, we offer specialized neuropathy treatment programs that combine multiple regenerative therapies to restore nerve function, reduce numbness and tingling, and improve sensation in affected areas.
What is wound care treatment?
Our advanced wound care uses regenerative medicine techniques to accelerate healing of chronic or non-healing wounds. Treatments may include PRP, stem cells, and ozone therapy to promote tissue repair.
