What Are Stem Cells?

Stem cells are fundamentally the building blocks of life and have the potential to differentiate into many different types of cells within the body. Stem cells are actively involved in repairing, regenerating, and rebuilding damaged or absent tissue in the body that has been affected by disease, infection, or injury.

How Do Stem Cells Heal?

Receptors on stem cells allow them to migrate to areas that need healing and effect change in that area, potentially becoming new cells in the area and create new tissue to help improve functionality. They secrete chemicals which activate and attract your body’s native stem cells to initial tissue regeneration. There are numerous scientific evidence that shows amazing reparative potential of these cells.

Are Stem Cell Therapy Procedures Safe?

After numerous clinical trials and thousands of stem cell treatments worldwide, stem cell therapy has been proven to be safe and an effective tool for tissue regeneration. Umbilical cord stem cells are extensively tested and, in our experience, after treating many thousands of patients for years, we have never seen a serious, adverse event.

How Do I Know If I Am a Candidate for Stem Cell Treatments?

While stem cell therapy may be appropriate for certain conditions, it is not applicable for every condition. However, it has proven to be a viable option for several individuals seeking wellness, anti- aging and longevity or suffering from pain and discomfort. Your physician may ask for a history of your injury and a physical examination along with any X- rays, MRI, or other imaging. To find out if you are a candidate for a stem cell procedure, please contact us. We will set you up with a complimentary 15-minute consultation to discuss your case to determine your eligibility.

How Long After Stem Cell Therapy Do You See Results?

Stem Cells can unlock an almost limitless array of healing powers. All of our patients have experienced amazing results. Depending on the nature of the injury and/or progression of a condition, every patient’s journey to recovery is different. Regenerative medicine can be a great and effective alternative to surgery. Stem Cells combat inflammation and help trigger a healing rejuvenating response within the body. Many of our patients report seeing results in as little as 3 weeks. However, some improvements may take around 2-12 weeks after the initial treatment with continued healing for up to 12 months.

What to Expect from Stem Cell Therapy for Orthopedic Joint Injections?

Stem cell therapy can be highly effective for treating joint pain or injury in the knees, shoulder, hip, elbow, neck and spine. It is non-invasive and mostly pain free. Nevertheless, it is common for patients to notice a positive treatment outcome in only few weeks. A reduction in pain, inflammation, improvement in range of motion, and joint repair are some of the benefits of one stem cell treatment. In some cases, this form of regenerative therapy can slow down the progression of a degenerative condition and potentially eliminate the need for harsh surgeries.

The most important part of any stem cell therapy is adhering to your pre and post-procedure guidelines. (Which will be discussed in detail before and after your procedure). Good healing during the first two months after the procedure will give you the best chance for success. The cells are fragile, and you need to be cautious that there isn't an overload on the newly treated joint.
