Stem Cell Therapy for Osteoarthritis
What is Osteoarthritis?
This condition occurs when the articular cartilage that covers the ends of each bone begins to break down from normal ageing or continued wear and tear. With constant degeneration, bone begins to rub against bone and causes chronic joint pain, inflammation and stiffness. This can all be treated with stem cell therapy.
Why are Stem Cells so special?
Arthritis is one form of osteoarthritis. Stem cells which are located in the body have the ability to divide and duplicate themselves.
These cells do not serve the body in any way but have the ability to develop into a cell which serves a purpose. Stem cells can develop into may cells such as cartilage and even bone. When placed into a certain area of the body, stem cells can transform to accommodate the need of new cartilage tissue. This is what serves the ability of stem cells to heal pain in patients suffering from arthritis. Living with pain and limitations to your daily lifestyle is no longer an option!!!
The human body is made up of billions of specialised cells with unique roles that form organs such as muscles, tendons, ligaments and bone. These cells regenerate and degenerate daily. Stem cells are responsible for regenerating the dead cells and create multiple types of cells. The issue arises when tissues are injured and the body does not regenerate enough of this tissue. These structures then become much weaker and prone to being less functional. While several types of stem cells exist in the human body, the highest concentration of stem cells was found to be that present in the adipose (fat) layer in the abdomen and are harvested by liposuction. Stem cells in this region remain potent throughout the life of a human being. These stem cells are then reintroduced into the area required for regeneration and accelerated healing.
Who can get Stem Cell Therapy?
People of any age can make use of stem cell therapy. If you are suffering from a joint injury or degenerative condition such as osteoarthritis, stem cells can be the best procedure. Do not hesitate to contact our clinic reception on the numbers listed below to book your own consultation with the stem cell specialist.
