What is Stem Cell Therapy?

Stem Cell Therapy is a revolutionary regenerative medicine treatment that uses your body's most powerful healing cells to repair and rebuild damaged tissues. Rather than masking pain with medications or rushing into surgery, stem cell therapy addresses the root cause of your discomfort by promoting actual tissue regeneration.

How Stem Cells Heal: These specialized cells have the unique ability to differentiate into various tissue types such as cartilage, tendon, ligament, bone, and muscle. When injected into injured or degenerative areas, stem cells activate your body's repair mechanisms by releasing growth factors that accelerate healing, reducing inflammatory responses that cause pain, recruiting additional healing cells to the area, and regenerating damaged cartilage and soft tissues.

For Riverside patients looking for a natural, minimally invasive approach to healing, stem cell therapy offers a clinically proven alternative that works with your body.

Our Riverside stem cell therapy clinic specializes in treating a wide range of orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions:

• Knee, hip, shoulder, and spine arthritis

What to Expect During Stem Cell Treatment

Initial Consultation
We'll discuss your pain history and previous treatments, examine the affected area thoroughly, review your activity level and recovery goals, and explain how stem cell therapy works and what results you can expect. We'll also address all your questions and concerns before moving forward.
Personalized Treatment
We'll determine the most appropriate stem cell source for your condition, decide the optimal number of treatment sessions, identify any complementary therapies that may enhance results, and establish a realistic timeline for recovery.
Treatment Procedure
The process includes preparation of your stem cell solution using advanced laboratory techniques, local anesthetic to ensure your comfort, image-guided injection for maximum precision and effectiveness, and a brief observation period before you're cleared to go home. Most procedures take 60-90 minutes total, with the actual injection lasting just a few minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a good candidate for stem cell therapy?

Ideal candidates are people with joint pain, arthritis, or tendon injuries who want to avoid surgery, haven't found lasting relief with conservative treatments, are healthy enough for a minimally invasive procedure, and are committed to following post-treatment protocols. The best way to know if you're a candidate is to schedule a consultation with our team.

How is this different from surgery?

Stem cell therapy is minimally invasive with no incisions, requires little to no downtime compared to months of surgical recovery, preserves your natural anatomy rather than replacing or removing structures, has minimal risk compared to surgical complications, and can often be repeated if needed without the same consequences as multiple surgeries.

Will it hurt?

Most patients report minimal discomfort during the procedure due to local anesthesia. Afterward, you may experience some soreness similar to a deep bruise, which typically resolves within a few days. Any discomfort is generally mild and manageable with ice and over-the-counter pain relief.

What's the success rate?

Success rates vary depending on the condition, severity, and individual patient factors. Research shows promising results for many conditions, with many patients experiencing 50-80% pain reduction and significant functional improvement. During your consultation, we'll discuss success rates specific to your condition.

Can I combine stem cell therapy with other treatments?

Absolutely. Stem cell therapy often works best as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. We may recommend combining it with physical therapy, nutritional optimization, PRP therapy, or other regenerative treatments to maximize your results.

How much does it cost?

Cost varies based on the area treated, number of injections needed, and the specific protocol recommended. Our team provides transparent pricing and will discuss all costs during your consultation. We also offer various payment options to make treatment accessible.
