While you may have heard about stem cell therapy already, getting to know the important benefits of stem cell therapy can help you make an informed decision about the right treatment option for your condition or pain.
Treatment for Orthopedic Injuries
Many orthopedic conditions and injuries are now being treated with stem cells. This shift has occurred simply because stem cells hold the potential to aid repair and rejuvenation of orthopedic tissues. Stem cells can differentiate into and form healthy, new tissues such as muscle, bone, cartilage, ligaments and tendons.
Stem cells that have been harvested from umbilical cord blood (with donor consent) can be used for orthopedic conditions, such as –
- cartilage replacement
- bone repair
- soft-tissue repair
Injecting stem cells directly into damaged or injured tissues can help to alleviate chronic pain, heal chronic injuries, and improve overall function and mobility.
Treatment for Cardiovascular Diseases
Research shows that stem cells can also be used to help repair the heart and blood vessels, in order to treat common cardiovascular diseases.
Stem cells have been shown to help in the following ways –
- Stimulate blood vessel tissue repair and growth
- Grow new tissue by generating specialized muscle cells of the heart
- Reduce the formation of scar tissue
- Restore blood flow
- Restore blood pressure capacity
- Restore normal cardiac output by decreasing over stretching of cardiac cells
- Improve the formation of new capillaries
Accelerate Healing
Stem cell therapy allows tissues to repair and regenerate themselves. Various stem cell treatments have also shown to be beneficial in–
- growth of healthy new skin tissue,
- stimulating hair growth
- improving collagen production
- replacing scar tissue with new, healthy tissue
Stem cells can accelerate the healing process by increasing collagen concentration, which can strengthen the damaged area. This can also prove beneficial in the treatment of connective tissue injuries related to collagen or cartilage loss, including osteoarthritis or the overuse of ligaments and tendons.
If you are wondering whether you are a good candidate for stem cell therapy for your condition or injury, consult a stem cell expert. They can review your history, symptoms, severity of pain and lifestyle, along with scans, such as X-rays, and MRIs, and conduct a thorough physical examination to help you understand whether stem cell therapy is the right treatment for your condition or injury.
