Struggling with back pain is something many Americans deal with on a daily basis. In fact, back pain is one of the most common reasons people have to miss days of work, which means either using up paid vacation hours or going unpaid for the day. Athletes and active people are especially prone to back problems, but these symptoms can also be caused by injury or disease.

Stem cell therapy, umbilical cord stem cells, or as we prefer to use the term Human Umbilical Cord Cellular or Tissue-Based Products is a non-surgical back pain treatment that may be effective for you. Arrange a consultation to discuss how it works, why it works and whether it can address the root cause of your symptoms.

Back Problems and Stem Cell Therapy / Human Umbilical Cord Cellular or Tissue-Based Products

This treatment protocol involves the use of umbilical cord tissue products which contain the ingredients to repair damaged tissue. These cells have been helping your body heal injuries and repair damaged tissue your entire life. By reinjecting them in a concentrated form, the stem cells stimulate the healing process while building new tissue and reducing inflammation.

Some of the back problems commonly addressed with stem cell therapy include:

  • Lumbar spine pain
  • Muscle and ligament strain
  • Herniated disc
  • Sciatica
  • Bulging disc
  • Degenerative Disc Disease
  • Spinal arthritis
  • Degenerative Joint Disease
