Cervical Spine (Neck) Pain
Stem cell treatment and other regenerative treatments such as PRP for cervical spine (neck) pain and other degenerative conditions hold much promise in the revolutionary field of regenerative medicine. Studies show that stem cell therapy has many potential benefits for patients with certain types of cervical spine conditions. For example, a 2016 study published in the Journal of Translational Medicine found that patients with degenerative disc disease who received stem cell injections experienced significant improvements in pain, function, and quality of life.
In the case of cervical spine pain, stem cells may be used to help repair and regenerate damaged or degenerated spinal discs, as well as to reduce inflammation and promote tissue healing.
Stem cell therapy for cervical spine pain typically involves injecting the stem cells directly into the affected area of the spine. The procedure is minimally invasive and is typically performed on an outpatient basis.
There are many conditions such as the wearing down of cervical discs and joints due to arthritis, spondylosis due to nerve compressions, herniated discs, and tendon ruptures that are able to be treated successfully through stem cell therapy.
- Experience: 15+ years in stem cell therapies
- Effective Treatments: Using your stem cells or MSCs for pain relief, regeneration, and more.
Regenerative Treatments
How does it work?
Stem cells are special cells that have the ability to develop into different types of cells in the body, such as muscle, bone, and cartilage cells. By harvesting these cells from the patient’s own bone marrow, they can be injected into the damaged area to promote healing and tissue regeneration.
Stem Cell Therapy After Removal Of Cervical Discs
Today, cutting-edge stem cell therapy is able to promote the growth of bone tissue after the removal of cervical discs (the cushions between the bones and the neck) helping patients find relief for chronic pain.
The cervical disc is removed in procedures that aim to eliminate friction between the vertebrae and/or nerve compression, thus alleviating pain. Following surgery, spinal fusion is what is utilized for degenerative disc disease, which is a state where cushioning cartilage has worn away to leave only bone to rub against bone and herniated discs, and where the discs pinched or compressed nerves.
A lack of effective new bone growth following spine fusion surgery can be a major issue, and adequate spinal fusion fails to occur in 8 to 35 percent of patients with persistent pain occurring in more than half of patients with fusion failure, something that may need even further surgery.
Using adult stem cells derived from bone marrow, doctors are able to help bone tissue grow, which is crucial for spinal fusion following surgery.
There are millions of people in America who are affected by spine diseases, and almost half of all spinal fusion surgery is performed for cervical spinal fusion and the number of the potential patients increases every year by 2 to 3 percent.
Types of Stem Cells :
Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs)
Found in early-stage embryos. Super powerful, can become any cell in the body. They are not typically used in modern clinical settings in the U.S. We don’t offer treatments using ESCs.
Adult Stem Cells (ASCs)
Found in tissues like bone marrow and fat. Their job is to maintain and repair the tissue they come from. These are what we mostly use in regenerative medicine. We do offer treatments using ASCs.
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)
This is the type A subtype of adult stem cells found in bone marrow, fat, and umbilical cords. They're amazing at reducing inflammation, modulating the immune system, and helping damaged tissue heal. We do offer treatments using MSCs.
Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs)
Regular adult cells that scientists “reprogram” to act like embryonic stem cells. Big in research, not widely used yet in clinical care. We do not work with iPSCs.
Types
What are Stem Cells?
Stem cells are your body’s raw materials basically, the building blocks for all other cells. They’re special because they can:
1. Divide and make more copies of themselves (self-renew).
2. Turn into specialized cells like muscle, bone, nerve, skin, or blood cells (differentiate).
Think of them like the body’s repair system. If you get injured or sick, stem cells can go to the area and help regenerate damaged tissue.
Stem Cell Therapy
What Are Exosomes?
Exosomes are microscopic particles (about 1/1000th the size of a cell) naturally released by cells—especially stem cells. They’re loaded with growth factors, proteins, RNA, and other signaling molecules that tell other cells what to do.
Exosomes aren’t stem cells themselves. They’re what stem cells use to communicate and activate healing in your body. You could say they’re the “brains” behind the operation, coordinating the regenerative process.
We use Umbilical Cord-Derived MSC Exosomes derived from Wharton’s Jelly in donated umbilical cords. These are the most clinically used exosomes today due to their potency, safety, and ethical sourcing. They’re young, non-immunogenic, and highly active. They are excellent for orthopedic, autoimmune, and anti-aging protocols
