How Stem-Cell Therapy Repairs Discs & Facet Joints
Tiny annular tears and inflamed facet capsules bathe nearby nerves in cytokines that trigger chronic pain. Concentrated autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs):
1
Seal micro-tears: in the disc’s collagen ring.
2
Release growth factors: that rebalance inflammatory cascades.
3
Stimulate new extracellular matrix: restoring disc height and shock absorption.
Early human trials show meaningful pain and disability reductions for 18–36 months after a single intradiscal MSC injection.
Are You a Candidate?
Degenerative disc disease or annular tear confirmed on MRI

Sciatica from a contained disc bulge (< 6 mm)
Adjacent-segment pain after laminectomy or fusion
Symptoms > 3 months despite PT, meds, or epidural steroids
Contraindications: severe spinal instability, cauda equina, active infection, coagulopathy, or cancer.

What to Expect
Your 2-Month Regenerative Spine Plan
Day 0
- Same Day Consult
- MRI & Dynamic Ultrasound
- Stem-Cell Collection
- 45-min Lab Concentration
- Image-Guided Injection

Results Timeline
Week 1–4
- Stiffness eases; sitting tolerance improves.
Week 8–16
- Disc rehydrates; nerve irritation settles—greatest pain drop.
Month 6–24
- Continued collagen remodeling sustains results; many patients resume high-impact sports.
Safety & Risks
Because we use your own cells, the rejection risk is essentially zero. Infection occurs in < 1 % of cases, and nerve injury is extremely rare thanks to continuous imaging and a sterile laminar-flow suite.
Science & Evidence
- Phase III MSC trial for discogenic pain shows significant ODI improvement over placebo
- Dallas studies demonstrate that fluoroscopy-guided MSC injection reduces re-operation rates compared with blind techniques.
- Meta-analysis of 14 animal studies confirms that MSCs help maintain disc height and biomechanical strength.

Patient Feedback
“I almost signed up for fusion. Three months after stem-cell disc injection, I backpacked Big Bend without pain meds.”
—Eric S., Frisco
“Tingling fingers wrecked my guitar gigs. Stem cells plus targeted PT had me back on stage in eight weeks.”

FAQs
We draw ≤ 60 mL marrow from your hip, centrifuge it to isolate MSCs, then inject under X-ray/ultrasound into painful discs, facets or SI joints. The cells release anti-inflammatory and reparative cytokines.
Ideal if PT and epidurals failed, MRI shows contained disc or arthritic facet, and you want to avoid hardware.
Desk work in 48 hrs, core exercises at week 2, full sports by week 8, barring setbacks.
Expect the biggest change between weeks 8–16; results often last 18–36 months.
Short-term soreness and small bruises are common. Infection < 1 % thanks to sterile ISO-7 suite; no donor-tissue risks because cells are autologous.
