What if your body could heal itself without surgery, heavy medications, or months of rehabilitation? This isn't science fiction—it's the reality of regenerative orthopedics that Dr. Gayan Poovendran has pioneered through his own healing journey and professional practice.

Dr. Poovendran opens up about his personal path to regenerative medicine, which began with his own shoulder injury at age 20. After years of frustration with conventional treatments, he discovered regenerative approaches that transformed not just his shoulder, but his entire medical philosophy. Now, instead of relying on cortisone injections every few months, he maintains an active lifestyle with occasional regenerative treatments.

The fundamental difference between traditional and regenerative orthopedics becomes crystal clear as Dr. Poovendran explains how conventional medicine often creates a treatment gap—patients receive physical therapy and pain management until their condition deteriorates enough to warrant surgery. Regenerative medicine bridges this gap with healing alternatives that treat the body holistically, addressing entire joint systems rather than isolated injuries.

Perhaps most fascinating is Dr. Poovendran's revelation about diagnostic technology—how ultrasound can sometimes detect injuries that MRIs miss through dynamic testing that observes tissues during movement rather than in static positions. This approach exemplifies the innovative thinking that drives the PRO Institute's success with athletes ranging from high school competitors to professional sports players.

The conversation extends beyond clinical practice into the genesis of the PRO Institute itself, a family business Dr. Poovendran built with his wife after reconnecting during the pandemic. Their shared vision has created not just a medical practice but a platform for educating patients about their body's remarkable capacity to heal itself.
