What Causes Back Pain?

Irritated and inflamed spinal discs or facet joints are the main causes of severe and debilitating back pain. In the past, surgical intervention or simply living with the pain were the only two options available for those suffering from back pain.

But oh, how times have changed. Non-surgical regenerative and rehabilitative therapies such as stem cell therapy have been studied, tested, and proven to alleviate pain with enduring results. In order to understand how stem cells can help repair and rehabilitate the spine and back, it is important to understand how stem cells work and what their functions are. 

A stem cell is a type of cell in the body that is undifferentiated, meaning it is not yet defined as a specific type of cell or tissue. It has the power to secrete various soluble factors that can alter the tissue microenvironment to which it is introduced.[1] These soluble factors include cytokines that control joint inflammation and growth factors that stimulate cartilage repair.[2] In other words: your body repairs itself by transforming Allograft stem cells into thriving, reparative tissue at the site of your back pain.

In some cases, Dr. Haasis combines stem cell therapy with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment to stimulate and repopulate tissue in the spinal region. Once inside, the stem cells have the ability to repair the cartilage and begin healing.

One injection session is usually sufficient to alleviate back pain, consisting of one or two injections per problematic disc or facet. That’s it; one session can result in lasting alleviation and increased quality of life.

Recovery and Results

Recovery after stem cell treatment is quick, usually requiring just a couple days of rest. After that, patients can return to their normal routine. The internal healing itself takes approximately six months as the stem cells integrate within their new location to rehabilitate the injury. The stem cells will secrete growth factors and eventually turn into nucleus cells. To get a glimpse of how satisfied you will be with your back treatment, please visit our reviews page
