TAMPA, FLORIDA – September 2, 2026 – DR²SPINE, a regenerative pain medicine practice in Tampa, Florida, has introduced its structured clinical methodology for chronic pain patients who have exhausted conventional treatment options and are seeking alternatives to surgery.
The practice is led by Dr. Myrdalis Díaz-Ramírez, a double board-certified physician with more than 25 years of experience in pain medicine and more than 10 years focused specifically on regenerative therapies. DR²SPINE provides non-surgical, non-opioid treatment options while allowing patients to access regenerative care in the United States with continued physician oversight.
At the center of the practice is the DR2SPINE Motion Method, a five-stage clinical framework based on the principle that the spine functions as an integrated system rather than a collection of isolated structures.
The Five Stages PRIME: Establishes the patient’s baseline biological readiness and prepares the body’s environment before diagnostic or treatment work begins. MAP: Constructs a complete structural picture by evaluating discs, nerves, facet joints, sacroiliac joints, posture, muscular function, and movement patterns as an interconnected system. TARGET: Uses findings from the MAP stage to identify which specific tissues may be appropriate candidates for regenerative intervention and in what order they should be addressed. REPAIR: Delivers the selected treatment, which may include platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), or micronized fat therapy, based on the patient’s condition and individual biology. RESTORE: Addresses movement and postural patterns that may have contributed to the original breakdown, with the goal of supporting long-term function following treatment.
Not all chronic pain is appropriate for regenerative medicine. Dr. Díaz-Ramírez conducts a diagnostic evaluation to determine candidacy, and patients whose conditions fall outside the scope of regenerative care are advised accordingly.
Why One-Structure-at-a-Time Treatment Can Fall Short
The spine functions as an interconnected system, meaning a problem affecting one structure can influence how other areas of the body move and absorb force.
For example, a compressed disc may alter how weight is distributed through adjacent facet joints. Changes in facet loading can affect sacroiliac mechanics, while those changes may contribute to muscular and postural compensation. Over time, altered movement patterns can place additional stress on the original problem area.
When treatment focuses exclusively on one structure without evaluating the broader movement system, contributing factors may remain unresolved.
The MAP stage of the DR2SPINE Motion Method is designed to evaluate those relationships before a treatment decision is made.
A Path for Patients Facing a Surgical Recommendation
The DR2SPINE Motion Method is designed in part for patients who have spent months or years managing chronic back or neck pain, undergone treatments such as physical therapy or medication, and ultimately received a surgical recommendation they are not ready to pursue.
For these patients, the goal is to determine whether all contributing factors have been identified and whether an appropriate non-surgical treatment option remains available.
The methodology evaluates the patient’s condition as a whole before determining whether regenerative treatment may be appropriate.
U.S.-Based Regenerative Care With Continued Follow-Up
Some chronic pain patients explore traveling outside the United States for regenerative therapies. DR²SPINE provides regenerative evaluations and treatments in Tampa with continued oversight from the physician responsible for developing each patient’s plan of care.
“I am the physician who determines your plan of care, who does it, and who follows up with you,” said Dr. Myrdalis Díaz-Ramírez, founder of DR²SPINE. “You don’t have to travel outside the United States to a clinic that treats you once and never follows up. We don’t leave you alone.”
The practice’s model incorporates evaluation, treatment when clinically appropriate, and follow-up within a single practice rather than treating the procedure itself as the end of care.
A Patient Perspective
Patients who have already consulted multiple providers or received surgical recommendations may seek an additional evaluation to better understand the source of their pain and the treatment options that may be available.
“I’d seen three or four doctors who wanted to do expensive surgery, and nothing made sense until I brought my MRIs to Dr. Díaz-Ramírez. I came in with terrible pain and walked out with none. I’ll keep driving from Sarasota if that’s what it takes to make this pain go away and stave off surgery,” said one DR²SPINE patient.
Individual results vary, and the experience of one patient does not guarantee similar results for others. Regenerative therapies are not appropriate for every patient, and a clinical evaluation is required to determine candidacy and develop an individualized treatment plan.
