A Torrance, California pain management practice led by a board-certified pain anaesthesiologist, offering spinal injections, nerve procedures and regenerative injections.
Arora Pain Clinic is a pain management practice in Torrance, California, run by Dr Ripu Arora, a board-certified anaesthesiologist who specialises in pain medicine. The practice treats people with long-standing pain, mainly from the spine and joints, and offers both conservative care and minimally invasive procedures done through a needle or a small incision rather than open surgery.
The interventional side of the practice includes epidural injections, nerve blocks, radiofrequency ablation (using heat delivered through a needle to interrupt a pain-carrying nerve), spinal cord stimulation, and percutaneous endoscopic laser discectomy, a keyhole procedure on a disc in the spine. Alongside these, the clinic offers physical therapy and acupuncture as non-procedural options.
The clinic also lists what it groups under orthobiologics: platelet-rich plasma (PRP, made by spinning a sample of the patient's own blood to concentrate platelets), stem cell therapy and regenerative cell therapy. The website does not say where the cells come from, whether they are taken from the patient's own bone marrow or fat or supplied from donated birth tissue, how they are processed, or what regulatory status the product has. Those are important questions to ask before agreeing to treatment.
The site names cell-based treatments but does not say what the cells are or where they come from.
