Why St. George Residents Choose The Stem Cell Club
St. George is known for its active lifestyle—from hiking the red rocks of Snow Canyon to golfing at Sand Hollow, from exploring Zion National Park to mountain biking along the trails. But an active Southern Utah lifestyle can take a toll on your joints, back, and overall mobility.
Traditional medicine often gives you limited options:
- Pain medications that mask symptoms
- Cortisone shots with diminishing returns
- Physical therapy that helps but isn’t enough
- Surgery with months of recovery and uncertain outcomes
- Being told to “slow down” or “accept the pain”
There’s a better way.
At The Stem Cell Club in St. George, we offer umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy—a non-surgical, regenerative approach that works with your body’s natural healing processes to reduce inflammation, support tissue repair, and help you get back to the active life you love.
What Makes Us Different
✅ Transparent Pricing
$2,499 includes everything—consultation, premium MSC stem cells, treatment, and follow-up care. No hidden fees, no upsells, no surprises.
✅ Physician-Led Care
Dr. Daren Brooks personally oversees every treatment. Not a physician assistant, not a rotating doctor—your care is guided by an experienced physician passionate about regenerative medicine.
✅ Premium Quality MSCs
We use ethically sourced umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells from non-vaccinated donors. These are the same quality stem cells used by clinics charging $10,000-$15,000.
✅ Education-First Approach
We don’t use high-pressure sales tactics. Our goal is to educate you about stem cell therapy, set realistic expectations, and only treat patients who will genuinely benefit.
✅ Membership Philosophy
We want you as a long-term member, not a one-time patient. That means earning your trust with honest medicine and real results.
✅ Local & Convenient
Right here in St. George—no need to travel to Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, or out of state for quality stem cell therapy.
What is Stem Cell Therapy?
Stem cell therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that uses your body’s natural healing mechanisms to address pain, inflammation, and tissue damage. At The Stem Cell Club, we use umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)—not your own stem cells, which decline in number and effectiveness as we age.
How MSC Stem Cells Work
Mesenchymal stem cells don’t just “turn into” new tissue. They’re far more sophisticated than that. MSCs act as healing coordinators in your body:
- Reduce Inflammation
MSCs send powerful anti-inflammatory signals throughout the affected area, calming chronic inflammation that causes pain and prevents healing.
- Support Tissue Repair
They release growth factors and proteins that encourage your body to repair damaged cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and other tissues.
- Modulate Immune Response
MSCs help regulate your immune system, which is particularly beneficial for autoimmune-related inflammation.
- Improve Blood Flow
They promote angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation), bringing more oxygen and nutrients to damaged areas.
- Protect Existing Tissue
MSCs create a better environment for healing, potentially slowing further degeneration.
Why Umbilical Cord MSCs?
As we age, our own stem cells decline significantly in number and potency. A 60-year-old has far fewer functioning stem cells than a newborn. That’s why we use umbilical cord-derived MSCs:
- Young & Potent: These cells are at peak effectiveness
- High Cell Count: Millions of viable stem cells per treatment
- Ethically Sourced: From donated umbilical cord tissue after healthy births
- Thoroughly Screened: All donors undergo rigorous health screening and testing
- Non-Vaccinated Donors: We carefully select our tissue sources
- Well-Researched: MSCs are the most studied stem cells in regenerative medicine

The St. George Stem Cell Process
Getting started with stem cell therapy at The Stem Cell Club is straightforward and transparent.
Step 1: Consultation with Dr. Brooks
Schedule an in-person or Zoom consultation to discuss your health history, current symptoms, and treatment goals. Dr. Brooks will:
- Review your medical history and any imaging (X-rays, MRIs)
- Discuss whether stem cell therapy is appropriate for your condition
- Set realistic expectations about potential outcomes
- Answer all your questions honestly
- Explain the treatment process in detail
No pressure, no hard sell. If we don’t think stem cells will help you, we’ll tell you.
Step 2: Schedule Your Treatment
If you’re a good candidate, we’ll schedule your stem cell therapy at our St. George clinic at a time that works for you. Most patients choose between two delivery methods:
IV Stem Cell Therapy (Most Common):
- Stem cells delivered intravenously over 1-2 hours
- Cells circulate throughout your body, finding areas of inflammation
- Systemic benefits—helps multiple joints or areas at once
- Relaxing, painless process
- Best for whole-body inflammation, multiple joint issues, or longevity
Direct Injection:
- Stem cells injected directly into a specific joint or area
- Targeted approach for single-joint issues
- Quick procedure (15-20 minutes)
- Minimal discomfort
- Best for isolated knee, hip, or shoulder problems
Step 3: Treatment Day
On treatment day, you’ll come to our St. George clinic for your stem cell therapy:
- Comfortable treatment room
- Full physician oversight by Dr. Brooks
- Premium umbilical cord MSCs prepared specifically for you
- Treatment takes 1-2 hours for IV or 15-30 minutes for injection
- Most patients find the process relaxing and painless
Step 4: Recovery & Results
What to Expect:
Days 1-3: Some patients experience mild soreness or fatigue as stem cells begin working (this is normal and temporary)
Week 1-2: Many patients start noticing reduced pain and improved mobility
Weeks 4-8: Continued improvement as stem cells reduce inflammation and support tissue repair
Months 2-3: Maximum benefits typically seen—reduced pain, better function, improved quality of life
Long-term: Many patients maintain results for 6-12+ months. Some choose to repeat treatment every 6 months as part of an ongoing wellness protocol.
Step 5: Follow-Up & Ongoing Care
We stay connected with you after treatment to:
- Monitor your progress
- Answer questions
- Provide guidance on activity levels and complementary therapies
- Determine if additional stem cell therapy would be beneficial
- Support your long-term health goals

Frequently Asked Questions
Is stem cell therapy legal in Utah?
Yes! Regenerative medicine and stem cell therapy are legal in Utah when performed according to FDA guidelines for minimally manipulated tissue products. Dr. Brooks is a licensed physician in Utah providing medical oversight for all treatments.
Does insurance cover stem cell therapy?
Most insurance plans currently don’t cover regenerative stem cell therapy as it’s still considered investigational by many carriers. However, our transparent $2,499 pricing makes it accessible out-of-pocket, and some patients successfully use HSA/FSA funds.
How effective is stem cell therapy?
Results vary significantly by individual, condition, and severity. Studies on MSC therapy for knee osteoarthritis show 60-75% of patients experience meaningful improvement. We’ll discuss realistic expectations during your consultation—we won’t promise miracles, but many patients experience significant pain reduction and functional improvement.
Is stem cell therapy safe?
When properly sourced, tested, and administered under physician supervision, MSC stem cell therapy has a strong safety profile. All our umbilical cord tissue undergoes rigorous donor screening and laboratory testing. Serious side effects are rare.
How long do stem cell results last?
Highly variable. Some patients experience benefits for 6-12 months, others for several years. Many choose to repeat treatment every 6-12 months as part of an ongoing health optimization strategy. We’ll help you develop a personalized plan.
Can I avoid surgery with stem cells?
Some patients successfully avoid or delay surgery for years using stem cell therapy. Others eventually need surgery but appreciate having tried a non-surgical option first. Stem cells aren’t a guarantee against surgery, but they may help you avoid it or push it out further.
Will stem cells regrow my cartilage?
Current evidence suggests MSCs support cartilage health and may slow degeneration, but they don’t typically “regrow” large amounts of cartilage. The primary benefits come from reducing inflammation, protecting existing cartilage, and improving the joint environment—which often translates to less pain and better function.
Can I stay active after stem cell therapy?
Yes! We encourage gentle movement and activity. Most patients return to light activity within days. We recommend avoiding high-impact exercise for about a week, but walking and gentle movement are beneficial. We’ll provide specific guidelines based on your treatment.
Do I need to prepare for stem cell therapy?
Minimal preparation required. We recommend:
- Stay well-hydrated before treatment
- Avoid anti-inflammatory medications (ibuprofen, naproxen) for 3-5 days before and after
- Eat normally
- Plan for light activity the day of treatment
- Arrange a ride if you prefer (not required)
How is this different from PRP therapy?
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) uses your own blood and growth factors. MSC stem cells are more potent, have broader anti-inflammatory properties, and come from young, healthy tissue rather than your own aging cells. Many patients try PRP first and upgrade to MSCs for better results.
Real Stories from St. George Patients
Individual results vary. These testimonials are real patient experiences but not guaranteed outcomes.
Mike R., St. George:
“After 20 years of hiking these red rocks, my knees were completely shot. I was facing knee replacement at 58. Three months after stem cell therapy at The Stem Cell Club, I’m back on the trails pain-free. I can’t believe the difference.”
Susan T., Hurricane:
“I tried everything for my back pain—chiropractors, PT, injections, you name it. The stem cell IV finally gave me real relief. I can golf again without pain, and at $2,499 instead of the $15,000 other clinics quoted me, it was actually affordable.”
David K., Washington:
“As an Ironman athlete training in St. George, recovery is everything. I get stem cells every 6 months now as part of my performance protocol. Dr. Brooks really understands athletes and knows his stuff.”
Linda P., St. George:
“I was skeptical, but at 66 with hip arthritis, I was willing to try anything before surgery. Six months later, I’m still pain-free and haven’t needed the surgery. This gave me my active retirement back.”
