What Is Degenerative Disc Disease and Why Does It Cause Back Pain?
Degenerative Disc Disease can be a major cause of back pain, reduced mobility, and may negatively affect overall quality of life. In degenerative disc disease, certain structures of the spine, including nerve roots, muscles, and a host of support tissues can be compromised by direct pressure, inflammation, and reduced space between the vertebrae.
Our stem cell treatment for Degenerative Disc Disease consists of depositing allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells inside the damaged areas of the back to regenerate the worn-out tissue and cartilage that is affecting the joints and causing the pain, reducing the range of motion, inflammation and limiting the overall proper functioning of the back.
Benefits from stem cell treatment for Degenerative Disc Disease can vary from patient to patient depending on many factors including current health condition, medical history, level of damage and other factors. It is important to understand that although the use of allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell injections for nerves or muscles regeneration has shown some of the highest efficacy for treating this condition, patients considering this treatment should be aware that results can vary.

How Stem Cell Therapy for Degenerative Disc Disease Works
Our stem cell treatments for Degenerative Disc Disease uses allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells obtained from an exclusive cryopreservation process that ensures more than 97% viability at the time of transplantation, combined with Platelet Rich Plasma therapy in order to achieve optimal functioning properties in the regeneration process of the tissues affected, this is the highest efficacy process available in Mexico, which operates under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), national and international standards of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the American Association Tissue Bank (AATB) and Official Mexican Standards corresponding to the General Law of Health.

Benefits of Stem Cell Therapy in Tijuana for International Patients


Mexico is at the forefront of stem cell therapy, offering a well-regulated and advanced framework for these treatments. Unlike in the United States, where stem cell transplants are still in clinical trials, Mexico has established extensive regulations, specific licensing, certifications, and government-mandated guidelines to ensure the highest standards in stem cell therapy.
Only qualified patients and certain conditions are eligible for treatment, determined through a thorough screening process. Moreover, only a select number of clinics, recognized by Mexican health authorities, are certified to perform these procedures.
