Heal Naturally With Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cell therapy harnesses your body's own regenerative cells to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and relieve chronic joint pain — without surgery or long downtime.
Why Patients Choose Stem Cell Therapy
A minimally invasive path to natural healing and long-term relief.
Regenerative Healing From Within
Stem cell therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses concentrated stem cells — often sourced from your own bone marrow or adipose (fat) tissue — to stimulate the body's natural repair process. These cells have the unique ability to transform into different tissue types, helping regenerate cartilage, tendons, and other damaged structures.
- ✓ Uses the body's own regenerative cells, not synthetic drugs
- ✓ Minimally invasive, performed as an outpatient procedure
- ✓ Targets inflammation and tissue damage at the source
- ✓ Suitable for joint, tendon, and soft tissue conditions
Types of Stem Cells Used
DVM uses autologous (self-derived) stem cells, sourced through:
• Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC)
• Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (fat tissue)
• Both processed and concentrated in the same visit
• No donor tissue or lab-grown cell lines used
From Collection to Healing, in One Visit
The entire process is completed in a single outpatient appointment, using your body's own cells to trigger a targeted healing response.
Cell Collection
Stem cells are harvested from your bone marrow or fat tissue using a minimally invasive technique.
→Concentration
The sample is processed in a centrifuge to isolate and concentrate the regenerative cells.
→Guided Injection
Concentrated cells are injected precisely into the damaged area using imaging guidance.
→Natural Regeneration
Cells begin signaling tissue repair, reducing inflammation and stimulating healing over weeks.
What Stem Cell Therapy Can Help With
Stem cell therapy is used across a wide range of orthopedic and joint-related conditions to reduce pain and restore function.
Knee Osteoarthritis
Reduces inflammation and supports cartilage health in early to moderate arthritic knees.
Rotator Cuff Injuries
Supports tendon healing and reduces pain from partial rotator cuff tears.
Hip Joint Degeneration
Helps manage early hip arthritis and joint stiffness without invasive surgery.
Tendon & Ligament Injuries
Accelerates repair in chronic tendon strain and partial ligament tears.
Spinal Disc Degeneration
May help reduce inflammation and pain associated with early disc wear.
Sports-Related Injuries
Speeds recovery from soft tissue injuries common in active and athletic patients.
Why Patients Choose Stem Cell Therapy
A natural, low-risk path to healing with none of the downsides of major surgery.
Minimally Invasive
No large incisions, no general anesthesia, and a much faster return to daily activity.
Uses Your Own Cells
Autologous cells eliminate rejection risk and donor tissue concerns entirely.
Reduces Inflammation
Targets the underlying inflammatory response driving chronic joint pain.
Supports Tissue Repair
Stimulates regeneration of cartilage, tendon, and soft tissue over time.
Outpatient Procedure
Completed in a single visit with no hospital stay required.
May Delay Surgery
Can help postpone or reduce the need for more invasive joint procedures.
What Happens During Treatment
The stem cell procedure is performed under local anesthesia in an outpatient setting, typically completed in under two hours from start to finish.
- Local anesthesia is applied to the collection and injection sites
- Cells are harvested from bone marrow or adipose tissue
- Sample is processed and concentrated on-site
- Cells are injected into the target area using ultrasound or imaging guidance
- Patient is monitored briefly, then discharged the same day
What to Expect After Treatment
Most patients resume light activity within days, with gradual improvement over the following weeks as regeneration progresses.
Mild Soreness at Injection Site
Some swelling and discomfort is normal and typically resolves with rest and ice.
Light Activity Resumes
Most patients return to desk work and light daily activity within a few days.
Early Healing Response
Inflammation begins to subside as regenerative cells activate the body's repair process.
Noticeable Improvement
Many patients report reduced pain and improved mobility during this stage.
Continued Tissue Regeneration
Full regenerative benefits typically develop gradually over several months.
Understanding the Risks
Stem cell therapy is generally well-tolerated, but as with any medical procedure, it's important to understand the potential risks.
Injection Site Discomfort
Temporary soreness, swelling, or bruising at the collection or injection site is common and usually resolves within days.
Infection Risk
As with any injection-based procedure, there is a small risk of infection, minimized through sterile technique.
Variable Results
Response to treatment varies by patient, condition severity, and overall health — results are not guaranteed.
Not a Cure-All
Stem cell therapy supports healing and pain relief but does not reverse advanced structural joint damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions patients ask about stem cell therapy.
Yes. Because the procedure uses your own cells, the risk of rejection or adverse immune reaction is very low. It is performed using sterile, image-guided technique.
Local anesthesia is used at both the collection and injection sites, so most patients experience only mild discomfort during and after the procedure.
The full process, from cell collection to injection, typically takes 1–2 hours and is completed in a single outpatient visit.
Some patients notice improvement within a few weeks, while full regenerative benefits often develop gradually over 3–6 months.
Many patients see benefit from a single treatment, though some conditions may require a follow-up session for optimal results.
Cells are sourced from your own body — typically bone marrow or fat tissue — during the same appointment as your treatment.
Candidacy depends on your specific condition, its severity, and overall health. A consultation and imaging review at DVM will determine suitability.
Coverage varies by provider and is often limited, since many regenerative treatments are considered elective. Our team can help review your options.
It may delay or reduce the need for surgery in early to moderate cases, but it is not a guaranteed replacement for surgical intervention in advanced damage.
Most patients resume light activity within a few days, with a gradual return to full activity over several weeks depending on the treated area.
