Efficient Stem Cell Treatment Application
Commonly, intravenous (IV) administration allows for cells to be infused to circulate throughout the body. Other administration protocols include direct injection to the specific treatment area. Depending on the patient’s condition to treat, the administration type may be:
-
Intravenous (IV) - Simplest application method to distribute stem cells throughout the body, doesn’t require anesthesia. Administration usually takes up to 30 min.
-
Intramuscular (IM) - Injection of stem cells directly into the muscle, doesn’t require anesthesia.
-
Intra-articular (IA) - Injection of stem cells directly into the affected joint by a licensed physician, commonly used to treat orthopedic and sports injuries including arthritis, doesn’t require anesthesia.
-
Intrathecal - Injection of cells directly into the spinal canal to treat neurological conditions, usually requires anesthesia.

Is stem cell therapy right for me?Please contact us for a free consultation to discuss the specific health condition and treatment needs. Stem cell therapy is a new field and it may not be suitable to treat some diseases, or disorders.

Why is stem cell therapy not available in the U.S?Stem cell treatment is considered a new field in medical science, because clinical trials are limited given their ample potential as an alternative in regenerative medicine, the FDA advises people interested in stem cell treatment within the U.S to be careful of unscrupulous providers. The FDA has the authority to regulate stem cell products strictly within the U.S and does not have oversight of treatments done in foreign countries.
