A New Option for Arthritis Relief in Vancouver

Arthritis affects millions of Canadians, often limiting mobility, daily function, and quality of life. At RMIC, we offer a next-generation, minimally invasive treatment called Regenerative Matrix Therapy™ — developed by Canadian physicians and reviewed by Health Canada with no objection.

Using a small sample of your own adipose (fat) tissue, we isolate and concentrate biologically active components through our proprietary Precision Adipose Modulation™ process. This purified tissue is re-injected into affected joints to help support repair, modulate pain, and promote long-term relief.

Why More People in Vancouver Are Choosing This Approach:

Types of Arthritis We Commonly Treat

  • Knee osteoarthritis
  • Hip Osteoarthritis
  • Shoulder Osteoarthritis or Degeneration
  • Early Joint Degeneration in Active Adults

Looking for Stem Cell or PRP Alternatives?

Many Vancouver patients visit us after exploring options like PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or stem cell therapy. While Regenerative Matrix Therapy™ is not advertised as a stem cell therapy, it uses purified autologous tissue — rich in diverse cell types and biologically active components — to support joint function, reduce inflammation and even reverse some of the causes of arthritis.

Our proprietary Precision Adipose Modulation™ technique purifies the adipose tissue, resulting in a powerful, targeted biologic injection tailored to your anatomy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore science-backed answers to some of the most common questions about Regenerative Matrix Therapy™.

Regenerative Matrix Therapy™ (Regenerative Matrix Therapy) is RMIC’s signature, patent-pending treatment protocol. It’s a minimally invasive, non-surgical therapy that uses your body’s own adipose (fat) tissue to help patients with joint pain, orthopedic degeneration, and soft tissue injuries. Through our proprietary Precision Adipose Modulation™ process, we collect, purify, and re-inject your tissue into the area of concern, targeting the source of pain to support your body’s natural recovery.

Although adipose tissue does contain a large population of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), called adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), Regenerative Matrix Therapy™ is not marketed as a “stem cell therapy”.

Our protocol is designed to be consistent, compliant, and personalized. Regenerative Matrix Therapy™ uses purified adipose tissue in a physician-led clinical setting to provide a refined next-generation approach to orthopedic care. Our protocol has been reviewed by Health Canada with no objection.

Adipose tissue — commonly known as body fat — is one of the most complex and versatile tissues in the human body. Far beyond storing energy, it plays an active role in tissue maintenance and biological support.

What makes adipose tissue so unique is its diversity of cell types, including:

  • White and brown adipocytes — energy-storing cells with metabolic function
  • Endothelial cells — which line blood vessels and support microvascular structure
  • Fibroblasts — key players in the structural integrity of connective tissue
  • Immune cells — including macrophages, T cells, B cells, and others
  • Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) — known as adipose-derived stem cells, present in concentrated numbers within fat tissue

At RMIC, we developed Precision Adipose Modulation™ to carefully process and purify this tissue — preserving its unique characteristics and preparing it for targeted use as part of our Regenerative Matrix Therapy™ protocol.

In short: your own fat may be one of the most powerful resources your body has. We’ve built a way to use it, purposefully and precisely.
