Why Choose Stem Cells for Knee Pain?

Traditional medicine offers limited options for knee pain:

  • Pain medications – Temporary relief, doesn’t address the problem
  • Cortisone injections – Short-term relief, can weaken tissue over time
  • Physical therapy – Helpful but often not enough alone
  • Knee replacement – Major surgery, months of recovery, 10-15 year lifespan

Stem cell therapy offers a different approach:

  • Non-surgical and minimally invasive
  • Targets inflammation at the source
  • Supports your body’s natural healing
  • Most patients return to activity within days, not months
  • Can be repeated if needed
  • Many patients avoid or delay surgery

Common Knee Conditions We Treat

Knee Osteoarthritis

The most common reason for knee pain in adults over 40. Cartilage wears down, causing bone-on-bone grinding, inflammation, and pain. MSC stem cells send anti-inflammatory signals and may support cartilage repair.

Meniscus Tears & Damage

Whether from sports, twisting injuries, or age-related degeneration, meniscus tears are extremely common. Small tears often heal poorly on their own. Stem cells can support the healing process and reduce inflammation.

Ligament Injuries (ACL, MCL, LCL)

Partial tears or chronic ligament laxity can cause instability and pain. Many athletes use stem cells to support ligament healing without surgery or to accelerate post-surgical recovery.

Patellar Tendonitis (Jumper’s Knee)

Common in athletes and active adults, tendonitis causes pain below the kneecap. Stem cells target tendon inflammation and support healing.

Chondromalacia Patella

Softening of the cartilage under the kneecap causes pain, especially when climbing stairs or kneeling. Stem cell therapy can help reduce symptoms.

Bursitis

Inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs around the knee. Stem cells’ anti-inflammatory properties can provide relief.

Post-Surgical Pain

Some patients continue to have pain after arthroscopy or other knee procedures. Stem cells may help address lingering inflammation and tissue damage.

How Stem Cell Therapy Works for Knees

The Science Behind MSC Stem Cells

We use umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) because they:

  1. Reduce Inflammation – MSCs send powerful anti-inflammatory signals throughout the knee joint
  2. Support Tissue Repair – They coordinate your body’s natural healing processes
  3. Protect Existing Cartilage – May slow further degeneration
  4. Improve Joint Environment – Create better conditions for healing

Why Umbilical Cord MSCs?

Unlike your own stem cells (which decline with age), umbilical cord MSCs are:

  • Young and highly potent
  • Present in much higher numbers
  • More effective at reducing inflammation
  • Ethically sourced from donated cord tissue
  • Thoroughly screened and tested

What to Expect: The Knee Treatment Process

Step 1: Consultation & Evaluation

Dr. Brooks will review your knee history, imaging (X-rays, MRI if available), and discuss your goals. We’ll determine if stem cell therapy is appropriate for your specific knee condition.

Step 2: Treatment Day

You have two options:

Option A: Direct Knee Injection

  • MSCs injected directly into the knee joint
  • Takes about 15-20 minutes
  • Ultrasound guidance for precision (when needed)
  • Minimal discomfort

Option B: IV Therapy

  • MSCs delivered via IV over 1-2 hours
  • Stem cells circulate and find areas of inflammation
  • Systemic benefits beyond just the knee
  • Many patients choose this for multiple joint issues

Step 3: Recovery & Results

Day 1-3: Some patients experience temporary soreness (normal inflammatory response)
Week 1-2: Many patients start noticing reduced pain
Week 4-8: Continued improvement as stem cells work
Month 2-3: Maximum benefits typically seen
Month 6+: Many patients maintain results; some choose repeat treatment

Step 4: Follow-Up Care

We monitor your progress and provide guidance on activity levels, supplementary treatments, and whether additional stem cell therapy would be beneficial.

Real Results: Knee Pain Success Stories

Individual results vary. Not all patients experience the same outcomes.

“At 54, I was told I needed knee replacement. Both knees, bone-on-bone arthritis. I tried stem cell therapy as a last resort. Six months later, I’m hiking, skiing, and pain-free. I can’t believe it.” – Tom, Park City

“Tore my meniscus playing basketball. Doctor said surgery or live with it. Got stem cells instead. Three months later, back on the court with zero pain. Best decision I made.” – Marcus, Las Vegas

“20 years of running destroyed my knees. Tried everything – PT, injections, braces. Nothing worked until stem cells. I’m not saying I’m running marathons again, but I can walk pain-free and that’s huge.” – Linda, St George

Knee Pain Stem Cell Therapy FAQs

How effective is stem cell therapy for knee pain?

Results vary significantly by person and condition. Studies show 60-75% of patients with knee osteoarthritis experience meaningful pain reduction and functional improvement. Younger patients, less severe arthritis, and recent injuries tend to respond better. We can’t guarantee results, but many patients find significant relief.

Is knee stem cell therapy painful?

The injection itself is brief and most patients describe it as similar to a cortisone shot. Some experience temporary soreness for 1-3 days afterward as the stem cells begin working. This is normal and usually resolves quickly.

Can stem cells regrow knee cartilage?

Current evidence suggests MSCs support cartilage health and may slow degeneration, but they don’t “regrow” large amounts of cartilage. The main benefits are reducing inflammation, protecting existing cartilage, and improving the joint environment – which for many patients means less pain and better function.

How long do knee 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 knee health strategy, especially if physically active.

Can I avoid knee replacement with stem cells?

Some patients successfully avoid or delay surgery for years. Others eventually need surgery but appreciate having tried a non-surgical option first. Stem cells don’t work for everyone, but for those they do help, it can be life-changing.

Do I need to stop activities before treatment?

Generally no, but we may recommend reducing high-impact activities for about a week after treatment to give stem cells optimal conditions to work.

Is stem cell therapy covered by insurance for knee pain?

Most insurance plans don’t cover regenerative stem cell therapy as it’s still considered investigational. However, our $2,499 transparent pricing is often less than deductibles and copays for knee surgery, making it accessible out-of-pocket.
