functions are generated. These cells can divide into what are known as "daughter cells." This can happen under the proper conditions inside the body or in a laboratory.

From there, the daughter cells can become new cells, which is called self-renewal. They also can become specialized cells, which is a process called differentiation. The specialized cells created through differentiation have a more specific function within the body. These can become brain cells, heart muscle cells, or blood cells. These cells are the only ones in the human body capable of generating new cell types.

Regenerative cells are harvested from the Wharton's Jelly of the umbilical cord on the day of birth. These cells are incredibly effective because they are young, healthy cells ready to help your body recover from pain or illness. The harvesting of these cells has no negative impact on the baby or the mother. Both are checked and monitored throughout the pregnancy to ensure the health of all involved. There is virtually no chance of rejection or adverse reaction with this type of regenerative treatment that contains cellular tissue.

As we age, our body's own cells age with us. Therefore, they lose much of the ability to rapidly multiply and heal us from injury or help us fight disease. The regenerative cells we use are young and healthy and do a much better job at helping our body's heal themselves. For the sake of illustration, think about how much more quickly a baby or a young person heals than do we as older people. This is because the young have a much larger number of young, healthy cells protecting them. At our medical clinic, we ensure the highest quality regenerative cells. We do this by testing every sample before administering it to our patients.

There are types of regenerative therapies that can be painful. This does not include the treatments containing natural growth factors that we administer. Bone marrow transplants are said to be the most painful type of cellular treatments. In this type of treatment, the doctor harvests some of the patient’s bone marrow. This is done by drilling a hole in the hip and extracting some marrow. The cellular tissue are then harvested from that marrow and re-introduced to the body.

There are several reasons that we feel our regenerative cells are better than bone marrow transplants. First, as mentioned earlier, as we age our cells age and may become less effective. Therefore the treatment is not likely to be as effective as using younger, healthier cells. And, second, there is no painful harvesting of tissue. We feel that it's more effective and more comfortable for you, our patient.

Regenerative therapies encourage the repair response of injured, diseased, or dysfunctional tissue. Also known as regenerative medicine, it has the potential to treat a wide range of health conditions.



For spinal injuries and joint conditions like osteoarthritis, injections containing cellular tissue and growth factors can reduce inflammation, support soft tissue repair, and minimize the formation of scars. When combined with complementary treatments, regenerative therapy for pain relief can help in recovery times and the quality of your day-to-day life.

One issue that can affect the results of regenerative therapy is the quality of the cellular tissue. It’s an unfortunate reality that many doctors seek out the lowest price when searching for tissue to use for their treatments. And as with most things in life, lower price often means lower quality.
