Two common problems causing neck pain is degenerative disk disease and facet arthropathy (a type of arthritis) of the cervical spine. Not all disk problems are amenable to regenerative therapy and patient selection is very important to optimize outcomes. Many forms of spine pain are actually due to arthritis of the facet joints (small joints where vertebra connect to their adjacent neighboring vertebrae)...

Arthritis of joints of the upper extremity is a form of degenerative joint disease that disables millions of Americans. Certain types of elbow and wrist joint problems including certain tendon problems and ligamentous injuries may not be amenable to cell therapy. It is important to evaluate each individual case to assess likelihood of success with attempting regenerative therapy...

Chicago Stem Cell Treatment Center, a research affiliate of Cell Surgical Network (CSN) provide stem cell therapy for a variety of degenerative conditions by deploying non-embryonic adult mesenchymal stem cells from a patient’s own adipose tissue or fat (also called Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF)). The Stromal Vascular Fraction is a broth that contains stem cells […]
