About Tennessee Regenerative Sports Medicine
Located in Knoxville, Tennessee, Tennessee Regenerative Sports Medicine (TRSM) is a leading orthopedic center dedicated to non‑surgical orthopedic medicine. The practice specializes in regenerative orthopedics, offering advanced biologic therapies such as platelet‑rich plasma (PRP), prolotherapy, and hydrodissection to address a broad spectrum of musculoskeletal injuries. Emphasizing a minimally invasive, evidence‑based approach, the TRSM team utilizes ultrasound‑guided PRP injections and prolotherapy to stimulate tissue repair, strengthen ligaments and tendons, and improve joint stability. By focusing on natural, non‑surgical joint pain relief, the practice helps athletes and active individuals recover faster while reducing reliance on surgery. Founded in 1996 by Dr. Michael J. Carlson, D.O., a board‑certified family physician and certified interventional regenerative orthopedic specialist, TRSM benefits from decades of clinical experience and leadership within the American Academy of Orthopedic Medicine. Dr. Carlson’s role as President of the AAOM and his extensive teaching of ultrasound‑guided injection techniques underscore the practice’s authority and commitment to cutting‑edge regenerative medicine.
