Stem Cell Therapy

Cascade Veterinary Referral Center and Vet-Stem, Inc. offer regenerative stem cell therapy. What is regenerative stem cell therapy?

Stem cells are cells found in many different tissues of the body. They are cells that can assist in healing and can help repair injured tissues. Fat is a good source of stem cells and a relatively small amount of healthy fat can be collected from a patient and sent to a laboratory for separation and concentration of stem cells. Within 48 hours these cells can be available for treatment of your pet.

Stem cell therapy has been used to treat arthritis of the knee, hip, and elbow joints. The can also be used for soft tissue repair of tendons and ligaments. Additional benefits are currently being investigated.

The nice thing about stem cells is they are your pet's own naturally occurring cells. They have the potential to develop into many types of cells. They are easy and safe to collect. They can help regenerate healthy tissue and can stimulate the body's own healing cells to concentrate in an area of injury. They can improve quality of life when other methods have failed.
