Stem cell therapy in Pasadena, CA
Non-surgical pain relief using your body’s natural healing cells.
What is stem cell therapy?
Stem cell therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to repair damaged tissue, reduce chronic inflammation, and restore joint function. At Regain Health MD, we offer advanced, physician-guided stem cell protocols designed to treat orthopedic pain without surgery.
These adult stem cells are ethically sourced from umbilical cord tissue or bone marrow and injected directly into the injured area to stimulate regeneration.
Conditions treated
01
Knees & hips
Osteoarthritis, meniscus tears, labral tears
02
Shoulders
Rotator cuff injuries, bursitis
03
Tendons & Joints
Tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, ligament tears
How stem cells work
Mesenchymal stem cells release bioactive molecules that:
- Reduce inflammation
- Recruit healing cells
- Regenerate cartilage, tendon, and ligament tissue
- Prevent further degeneration
Unlike cortisone, which only masks pain, stem cells repair the root cause of the problem.
Key Benefits of Stem cell therapy
- Avoid Surgery – Effective alternative to joint replacement
- Long-Term Relief – Repairs tissue, not just symptoms
- Minimally Invasive – In-office procedure, no hospital stay
- Low Downtime – Most patients resume activities quickly
- Backed by Research – Supported in orthopedic literature
Our Process
- In-Depth Consultation:
We assess your pain, imaging, and medical history to confirm candidacy. - Stem Cell Source Selection:
We use either autologous (your own) or allogeneic (donor) MSCs depending on your needs. - Ultrasound-Guided Injection:
We inject stem cells precisely into the damaged tissue using real-time imaging. - Recovery & Monitoring:
You’ll receive customized aftercare and follow-up to monitor your healing trajectory.
FAQ
What should I expect after injections?
- Downtime: Light activity in 1–2 days; avoid high-impact movement for 1–2 weeks
- Initial Effects: Inflammation may increase briefly before healing begins
- Improvement Timeline: Results develop over 2–6 months with continued tissue regeneration
Who are ideal candidates for stem cell therapy?
You may benefit from stem cell therapy if:
- You suffer from chronic joint, tendon, or back pain
- Conservative treatments (PT, injections) have failed
- You want to avoid or delay orthopedic surgery
- You have early to moderate degenerative conditions
- You are in good general health
