STEM CELLS CHARLOTTE
Our joints can’t repair themselves like the rest of our bodies because they don’t have arteries inside them to give them adequate circulation. Because of this, over time and after trauma, our joint cartilage starts to wear out, sometimes this can happen slowly over years, and other times rapidly over a few months. The only remedy for a worn out joint is no longer just joint replacement. Stem cell therapy has changed all that. It will revolutionize the treatment of arthritis.
Stem cells are essential for life, and they can be found throughout our entire bodies. The tissues in your body are not the same as they were 10 years ago. Our body tissues are constantly breaking down and building back up. There is a harmonious balance between tissue breakdown and new tissue formation. In fact, some scientists believe that because the balance slowly shifts over time to tissue breakdown that is the reason that we age! Our skin completely replaces itself every 30 days. Our blood cells completely turn over every 4 months. The lining of our GI tract sloughs off in tiny amounts every day and is completely replaced in a month.
Our bodies are a miraculous machine….able to repair damaged and worn out tissue with new tissue of exactly the same type! Think about it….if we replaced GI tissue with skin tissue we would all starve to death because we would no longer be able to absorb nutrients. So the body can heal itself to a large extent….cut the skin, break a bone, bite your cheek….it all heals because those tissues have good circulation, and the body can bring growth factors and stem cells to the injured area and repair it.

Where do you get the Stem Cells and Growth Factors from?
That is one of the most important questions you must ask any provider who wishes to treat you with stem cells. At Stem Cells Charlotte, we use your own stem cells from your body (called ‘autologous’).
Stem cells can be found in every single tissue in our bodies, but some tissues have more of an abundance. Bone marrow and adipose (fat) tissue are the two main sources of active, viable stem cells, and those are the two sources we use. And contrary to what you might have been told at other clinics, even older people have plenty of healthy, viable stem cells…plenty enough to get the job done.
By using your own body as the source of stem cells we are helping your body heal itself! And by using your own stem cells there is no risk of blood-borne viral infections like hepatitis, HIV, Zika, and many others.
