Cell Therapy

Cell therapy is a powerful form of medical care that uses cells to treat illness and injury. Popular cell therapies include mesenchymal stem cells, bone marrow and platelet rich plasma. Studies have tied cell therapy to improvements of up to 50% in joint pain and disability.

Cell therapy uses live human cells to replace or repair damaged cells and tissues. It may involve transplanting cells through surgery or injecting cells into a joint. Cell therapies can come from many different sources including blood, bone marrow and umbilical cord blood. Doctors use cell therapy to treat many conditions, including arthritis, back pain and broken bones.
