Consider Stem Cell Therapy for Neck Pain

If you experience regular neck pain from injury, disease, or muscle overuse, you should consider stem cell therapy, especially if you want to avoid more invasive treatments or if your age or active lifestyle prevents you from pursuing a surgical solution to your pain. Traditional treatments for neck pain – including muscle relaxers, physical therapy, immobilization with a neck brace, steroid injections, and ultimately surgery – may not be effective for you, or you may be concerned about the risks and inconvenience of a traditional surgical procedure. If you want a relatively safe option for decreasing neck pain without surgery, you should consider stem cell therapy at Regenesis.

What are the Advantages of Stem Cell Therapy for Neck Pain?

Stem cell therapy uses the body’s system for regrowing and repairing itself, called regeneration, so it is less complicated and risky than traditional orthopedic or spinal surgery. Our stem cell procedures require no anesthesia, have no downtime, and offer a much shorter recovery time. Most importantly, cellular therapy works effectively to reduce neck pain. We have seen our patients dramatically reduce their neck pain and increase their mobility and quality of life through stem cell therapy.

What to Expect from Stem Cell Therapy for Neck Pain at Regenesis

Conveniently, your stem cell therapy will be performed by Dr. Lee at the Regenesis Stem Cell Center in Huntsville, Alabama. You do not need to go to a hospital for the procedure. Since your neck is so complex with vertebrae and spinal attachments to the skull, your precise diagnosis is essential before starting stem cell therapy. Beginning with your initial consultation, Dr. Lee will independently review your medical history, conduct a medical examination in our clinic, and perform high-tech imagery and ultrasound to identify damage in your neck and the source of your neck pain. Then we will tailor a comprehensive plan to your specific condition.

If stem cell therapy is part of your plan, the first step on the day of your procedure will be to prepare your own stem cells and platelet-rich plasma. Stem cells are formed beginning at conception, giving rise to all the different cell types in your body. Although many types of stem cells exist throughout the body, we use your entire bone marrow entourage of cells, including mesenchymal stem cells (MSC’s). MSC’s can divide into various vital cells, including bone, ligaments, tendons, muscle, and cartilage. Robust reservoirs for these cells exist in your Iliac bone marrow. Our advanced and research-backed stem cell therapy process also includes concentrating platelet-rich plasma from your red blood to use alongside the stem cells. These platelets set loose a flurry of growth factors to encourage healing in damaged tissue by stimulating stem cells.

To prepare for your stem cell therapy, Dr. Lee will gently remove some of your bone marrow using oral or IV sedation and local anesthetic for your comfort. While you wait comfortably, we take your sample to our lab to concentrate and remove your stem cells from the bone marrow. After about two hours, the stem cells are ready for us to use in your procedure. With IV sedation, real-time fluoroscopy, and ultrasound, Dr. Lee will precisely inject your live stem cells and platelet-rich plasma into your neck joints or muscles, according to your therapy plan. These careful injections take about 20 to 40 minutes to complete. The live stem cells and platelet-rich plasma supercharge the body's regenerative healing process. You will leave the clinic with the same mobility as when you arrived, but pain relief may be noticeable over the next few weeks. The injured tissue and bone may be able to repair themselves over the next three to six months.
