Stem cells are the body's master cells. Here at Dr. Stem Cell we give you the choice to harvest mesenchymal stem cells from your own adipose tissue. The specialized cells can now be banked and cultured to provide you with your own cells whenever you might need them. 

How is Cellular Therapy beneficial in orthopedic medicine?

Cellular therapy aims to assist your body in the regeneration of new healthy tissue to replace damaged or diseased tissue. As a result, the new tissue aids in the restoration of joint function and the relief of pain.

Mesenchymal Cellular Therapy has the ability to self-renew and  form cells into a variety of tissue, including cartilage, tendon, and ligament tissue. When Dr. Fishman injects MSC's into a specific area, they can help the natural healing process and reduce pain. 

Now, let’s bust some of the myths surrounding stem cell therapy. 

Myth 1: Stem cells only come from embryos

Truth 1:  Yes, embryonic stem cells exist. and are illegal to use in the United States. However, there are a variety of options that don’t require fetal tissue. One of the best-known methods is to use MSC's coming from umbilical cord tissie, or using ones own cells, coming from adipose fat tissue.

Myth 2: Cellular therapy is unproven

Some patients haven’t taken advantage of Cellular Therapy because they believe it may not help them.

Truth:Cellular therapy has been used successfully in clinical practice to help degenerative knees, hips, shoulders, and lumbar discs with excellent results

Patients report significant pain relief as well as an improvement as well as a regorwth in cartilage. A number of studies in regenerative medicine and orthopedic literature have demonstrated positive outcomes from Cellular Therapies. 

These procedures are rapidly becoming a first-line treatment for degenerative joint disease and certain types of low back pain, offering a natural, minimally invasive alternative to surgery. 

Myth 3: Cellular Therapy requires a significant recovery period

Cellular Therapy for joint pain is a prime example of how patients can potentially improve pain and mobility while avoiding invasive joint replacement surgery. Cellular Therapy is performed as an outpatient procedure. 

Truth:Patients can usually return to work within a day or two, and they can resume most daily physical activity much sooner than they could after surgery.
