A Non-Surgical, Investigational Wellness Option
Are you exploring supportive wellness options that align with your body’s natural biological functions? At Optimal Health, located in Knoxville, we offer stem cell therapy (also know as advanced cell therapy)— an investigational, minimally invasive service intended to complement your body’s natural biological functions.
What Is Stem Cell Therapy?
Stem cells are a unique type of cell that have the potential to develop into different types of tissue. In the body, they are believed to contribute to natural repair and regeneration processes. This type of regenerative medicine contains naturally occurring compounds that are being studied for their potential healing properties within the body. Researchers are continuing to study how stem cell therapy may interact with the body related to overall tissue health and function. Particularly, its potential to support joint, soft tissue, and musculoskeletal repair, modulate inflammation, and promote the body’s natural regenerative processes.
At Optimal Health, we utilize Wharton’s Jelly-derived cell-based products, sometimes referred to as natural biologics or cell therapies. These products are collected from healthy, full-term umbilical cords and processed according to current safety standards. Unlike stem cells harvested from bone marrow or adipose tissue, Wharton’s Jelly products are ready-to-administer and do not require a separate collection procedure, making for a more streamlined, non-surgical experience.
We utilize these biologics in ways that are aligned with current scientific research and ongoing clinical investigations. While individual responses may vary, this approach offers a minimally invasive option that is being explored for its potential to complement the body’s natural healing processes.
