Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stromal cells with well-documented anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties. At Rejuvenate & Wellness Center, we use MSCs derived from Wharton's jelly — the connective tissue of the umbilical cord — ethically obtained from consenting donors after healthy, full-term births.
Wharton's jelly MSCs are among the most potent and well-studied sources of mesenchymal stem cells. They are processed at FDA-registered, cGTP-compliant laboratories and have been the subject of numerous peer-reviewed studies exploring their potential in orthopedic and regenerative applications.
Regulatory transparency: These therapies are investigational for orthopedic and regenerative uses. They are not FDA-approved for the treatment of arthritis or ligament injuries. We provide full informed consent and encourage patients to research the current regulatory landscape.

The following represent areas where MSC therapy is currently being studied. These are not guaranteed outcomes. A medical evaluation determines whether you are a candidate.
Osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, shoulder, and other joints. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from Wharton's jelly have been studied for their ability to modulate inflammation and support the body's natural repair processes in joint tissue.
Partial ligament tears, chronic tendinopathy, and soft tissue injuries that have not responded to conventional treatments. MSC-based therapies are being explored for their potential to support tissue remodeling and reduce chronic inflammation.
Wharton's jelly is the gelatinous substance within the umbilical cord, rich in mesenchymal stem cells. These cells are ethically sourced from consenting donors, processed at FDA-registered labs, and are known for their potent anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties.
Beyond orthopedic applications, MSC therapy is being studied for its potential role in supporting overall cellular health, reducing systemic inflammation, and promoting tissue homeostasis as part of a comprehensive wellness protocol.
We exclusively source MSC products from laboratories registered with the FDA and compliant with 21 CFR Part 1271 Current Good Tissue Practice (cGTP) regulations — ensuring sterility, safety, and quality control.
We are transparent about the investigational status of these therapies. Every patient receives a thorough informed consent process that explains what is known, what is unknown, and the current FDA regulatory position.
No treatment is administered without a comprehensive medical evaluation. Our provider reviews your history, imaging, medications, and goals to determine candidacy and create an individualized plan.
