The Healthy Aging Workshop
An educational workshop with Dr. Brian Petrie exploring why the body doesn't recover the way it used to, what changes with age, and how understanding the biology of healing can help you make better decisions about your health and recovery.
A short teaching session from Dr. Petrie on the biology behind healthy aging and recovery.
What you will learn
The science of healing, explained so you can use it.
Why Your Body Doesn't Recover Like It Used To
How the balance between tissue breakdown and repair changes with age—and why an injury that once recovered quickly may begin to linger.
What Your Body Actually Needs to Repair
A simple explanation of collagen, structural building blocks and the biological signals involved in normal tissue repair.
The Biology Behind Regenerative Medicine
What regenerative medicine actually means, including important differences between approaches using your own blood and products derived from donated birth tissue.
The Three Foundations of Recovery
Control Inflammation → Provide the Building Blocks → Restore Function. Learn why the environment in which recovery occurs may be just as important as the procedure itself.
Right Patient. Right Diagnosis. Right Biology.
Why regenerative medicine isn't appropriate for everyone—and why evaluation should come before treatment.
How to Separate Science From Hype
Understand the difference between responsible regenerative medicine and exaggerated claims about "stem cells," miracle injections and guaranteed regeneration.
What to expect
Come with questions. Leave with answers.
About an hour, in plain language
A focused presentation from Dr. Brian Petrie — no jargon, no prerequisites, and nothing you need to prepare beforehand.
Live Q&A
Time set aside at the end for real questions about your situation, including the ones you have not been able to get a straight answer to.
Small groups, local setting
Held in Raynham, MA and serving Southeastern Massachusetts, in a group small enough that questions actually get answered.
