Joint pain is an ailment that becomes increasingly common as we age, with conventional care attempting to manage pain and inflammation in the joint until surgery becomes nearly unavoidable.
Given the clear need for a less-invasive solution, research is looking more and more into leveraging the unique properties of Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) to help address the underlying cause of most joint pain: inflammation.
As Founder and Medical Director of Root Causes Medicine, Dr. Derek Guillory’s specialization in the underlying cause of disease has led him to become a uniquely valuable resource on the therapeutic application of MSCs.
In a previous webinar, Dr. Guillory explained how MSCs are able to travel to sites of injury or inflammation to signal other cells to begin the body’s natural repair process. It’s thanks to these anti-inflammatory properties that joint pain is arguably one of the most promising areas for MSC therapy.
Join this webinar to hear from a leading expert on MSC therapy as we dive into how MSCs are uniquely suited for tackling joint pain. We discuss how MSCs can address joint inflammation, how therapy is administered to different joints, and strategies you can use to help keep your joints healthy.
