Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) Therapy
Support joint and nerve healing with your body’s own repair cells.
Mesenchymal stem cells are specialized repair cells found in tissues like bone marrow, fat, and umbilical cord. They don’t “turn into anything overnight,” but they calm inflammation, release growth factors, and support tissue repair in cartilage, ligaments, and nerves. Clinical studies in conditions like knee osteoarthritis show meaningful improvements in pain and function for many patients, with generally good short-term safety, though not everyone responds.
At NexGenEsis Healthcare, MSC-focused care is always part of a personalized regenerative protocol, not a one-size-fits-all injection. Your provider will evaluate your imaging, health history, and activity goals, then decide whether to use:
MSC-rich preparations from your own bone marrow or fat
Donor umbilical cord–derived MSC products, sourced from carefully screened, full-term births and processed under strict standards.
What MSC therapy may help with
You’ll typically have a same-day procedure with image-guided injections, followed by a structured rehab plan. Improvement, if it happens, tends to build gradually over weeks to months—not overnight.
Straight talk on Safety and Regulation
The FDA currently approves stem cell therapies mainly for blood and immune disorders, not for most forms of arthritis, back pain, or neuropathy.
That means MSC therapies for joint and nerve pain are considered experimental/alternative and elective.
Side effects can include temporary pain, swelling, or stiffness; serious complications are rare but possible.
