Treatment Process and Possibilities
Treatment at our clinic begins with an initial consultation and infection check. Stem cells are then harvested from the patient’s body and grown in a culture center. The proliferated stem cells are returned to the body in a fresh state, without being frozen, to maximize their natural healing power. This process offers new treatment possibilities for conditions that have been almost given up on.
Treatment by Experienced Orthopedic Surgeons
Dr. Hisatoshi Ishikura, a graduate of the University of Tokyo’s Faculty of Medicine, is a specialist in orthopedic surgery and has performed more than 160 cases of regenerative medicine at our clinic. Dr. Ishikura has accumulated specialized knowledge and skills in regenerative medicine through his work in orthopedic surgery at the University of Tokyo Hospital and several general hospitals, and has extensive experience in the treatment of arthritis in particular. Based on his clinical experience, he provides advanced and reliable treatments.
Advanced Cell Culture Technology
We work with a top-class cell culture and processing facility (CPC) in Japan and utilize advanced technology to culture a large number of stem cells from a small amount of cells. Stem cells cultured under a strict control system assures the quality of the cells and provides the best conditions for patient treatment. This allows us to maximize the effectiveness of stem cell therapy.
Safety and Personalized Care
Safety is a top priority at our clinic, and all treatments are performed in accordance with the regulations and protocols of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. When it comes to stem cell therapy, we offer the best treatment plan for each individual patient’s condition and provide thorough support to ensure that our patients feel comfortable with their treatment.
Reasons why our regenerative medicine is the treatment of choice
Our regenerative medicine, which supplements stem cells that decline with age and reactivates the natural healing power of the body, has provided new hope to many patients. Using culture technology, this therapy effectively supports the repair of damaged tissues and aims to improve the quality of daily life of patients. Would you like to take a new step forward with this cutting-edge treatment? If you are interested in treatment, please contact our office. Our experienced specialists will do their best to support you by proposing the best treatment plan for your condition. Let’s explore the possibilities of regenerative medicine together.
Stem Cell Decline and Its Effects
When we are young, our bodies have an abundance of stem cells and a high natural repair capacity against damage and disease. However, after the age of 20, the number of these stem cells gradually begins to decline; by the time we reach 40, the number of stem cells is much lower than in our youth, and the body’s ability to repair itself is also reduced. This results in slower recovery and a longer recovery from illness or injury.
However, we offer state-of-the-art regenerative medicine technology to supplement these diminished stem cells. Our technology effectively supplements lost stem cells by harvesting the patient’s own stem cells and growing them under strict control. This allows the body’s natural healing abilities to be re-established for faster recovery.
The Heart-Homing Effect and the Role of Stem Cells
Stem cells play a very important role in the body. Of these, a phenomenon known as the “heart homing effect” is of particular interest. Through this effect, stem cells gather in vital organs such as the heart and lungs, where they help maintain and repair the body.
Specifically, stem cells gather in the heart and lungs and function to help regenerate nerves and blood vessels in the event of damage or disease in these organs. However, if the number of these stem cells decreases, the body’s ability to repair itself may be impaired and recovery from illness or injury may be delayed.
Regenerative Medicine Increases Stem Cells and Restores Health
At our clinic, we offer a treatment to increase these important stem cells again and return them to the patient’s body. By increasing the number of stem cells that collect in the heart and lungs, we strengthen the body’s natural repair processes and support the regeneration of nerves and blood vessels. This helps patients regain their natural healing abilities and regain a healthy lifestyle.
This regenerative medicine is a revolutionary treatment to replace stem cells lost due to aging or disease. Why not join us to re-establish your body’s ability to repair itself and achieve a healthy and fulfilling life? Our specialists will do their best to support each patient with the best treatment plan for each individual.
