How Stem Cell Therapy Is Used for Osteoarthritis
CellsTime Clinique uses mesenchymal stem cells as part of its regenerative medicine approach for osteoarthritis. The cells are administered to the affected joint or treatment area according to the patient's diagnosis and physician recommendations.
The treatment is intended to support the joint environment and may be used in an effort to influence inflammatory and regenerative processes associated with osteoarthritis. Individual responses vary, and stem cell therapy cannot guarantee restoration of lost cartilage or elimination of joint pain.
Patients should have the severity and cause of their joint symptoms assessed before treatment. Imaging such as X-rays or MRI scans may be reviewed to help determine whether regenerative therapy is appropriate or whether another treatment, including physical therapy, medication, injection therapy, or surgery, should be considered.

FAQs About Stem Cell Therapy for Osteoarthritis in Tijuana
Is stem cell therapy for osteoarthritis painful?
The treatment may involve injections into or around the affected joint. Patients can experience temporary pressure or discomfort during the procedure, and local numbing medication may be used when appropriate.
How many joints are included in the $4,599 package?
The package generally covers the primary joint area being treated. Patients considering multiple joints should request a personalized quote because the final price and treatment plan may change.
Can stem cell therapy be used for basal joint or thumb CMC arthritis?
Yes. CellsTime lists basal joint arthritis and thumb CMC arthritis among the conditions considered within its osteoarthritis regenerative medicine program. Eligibility depends on physician evaluation.
How long can the effects of stem cell therapy last?
Treatment response and duration vary between patients. Factors such as osteoarthritis severity, joint mechanics, activity level, age, previous injuries, and post-treatment care can influence how long any improvement lasts.
When can I resume normal activity?
Activity recommendations depend on the joint treated and the patient's condition. The CellsTime medical team may recommend limiting high-impact exercise for a period after treatment while allowing lighter activity as tolerated.
Are the stem cells used by CellsTime tested?
CellsTime describes using mesenchymal stem cells that undergo laboratory processing and quality-control procedures. Patients should ask the clinic about cell sourcing, screening, viability testing, preparation, and potential risks before treatment.
Can stem cell therapy be used for spine osteoarthritis?
CellsTime includes spine osteoarthritis within its regenerative medicine program. Whether targeted treatment is appropriate depends on the cause and location of the patient's spinal degeneration and medical evaluation.
Do I need to stay in a hospital?
No. The treatment is structured as an outpatient procedure. Patients generally return to their hotel or accommodation after completing treatment and post-procedure observation.
Is stem cell therapy better than joint replacement surgery?
Stem cell therapy and joint replacement serve different patients and medical situations. Regenerative therapy is less invasive, but it cannot reliably replace surgery for advanced structural joint damage. Patients with severe osteoarthritis should discuss both non-surgical and surgical options with an orthopedic specialist before deciding.
How do I start treatment at CellsTime Clinique?
The first step is a remote review of the patient's medical history and relevant imaging. The CellsTime medical team can then determine whether the patient may be a candidate and recommend an appropriate treatment plan.
