Advanced Regenerative Joint Support Without Surgery

What Is WJ-MSC IA Therapy?
(Wharton’s Jelly Mesenchymal Stem Cells Intra-articular injection)


WJ-MSC IA therapy is an advanced regenerative treatment designed to support joint health, mobility, and overall function. This therapy uses biologic material derived from Wharton’s Jelly and is administered directly into the joint space using ultrasound-guided precision. Many patients explore this option as part of a non-surgical approach to joint discomfort, stiffness, reduced mobility, or active lifestyle support.

WHO MAY BE A CANDIDATE?

This treatment may be appropriate for individuals experiencing:

-Knee discomfort or stiffness

-Shoulder, elbow, wrist, ankle or other peripheral joint concerns

-Reduced mobility

-Exercise-related wear and tear

-Joint inflammation

-Active lifestyle recovery goals

-Interest in non-surgical options

WHO MAY NOT BE A CANDIDATE

Not every patient is an ideal candidate for regenerative joint therapy.

During your medical evaluation, our providers will review:

-Your medical history,

-Medications,

-Current joint condition,

and any potential contraindications to determine whether treatment is appropriate for you. This treatment may not be recommended for certain medical conditions, infections, or other health-related concerns.

*We don't currently offer Spinal, S/A or Hip joint treatments

What to Expect

STEP 1 — FREE CONSULTATION

Meet with our team to discuss your concerns, goals, and questions.

We’ll explain:

-How the treatment works

-What the process looks like

No pressure. Just education and guidance.

STEP 2 — MEDICAL EVALUATION

Medical Evaluation with a Nurse Practitioner

If you decide to move forward, you’ll meet with one of our nurse practitioners for a detailed evaluation.

Your provider will:

-Review your medical history

-Evaluate the treatment area

-Discuss contraindications and

-Develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

STEP 3 — TREATMENT DAY

Ultrasound-Guided Treatment

On treatment day, the joint area is first numbed for comfort.

Your provider then uses ultrasound guidance to precisely administer the injection into the targeted joint space.

Patients receive detailed pre- and post-care instructions to support the recovery process.

STEP 4 — FOLLOW-UP CARE

Follow-Up Support

Patients return for a follow-up appointment approximately 2 to 4 weeks after treatment.

This allows your provider to:

-Monitor progress

-Answer questions and

-Ensure your recovery plan is progressing appropriately.

SAFETY & PROVIDER-LED CARE

Our team prioritizes patient education, individualized treatment planning, and safety-focused care.

Every treatment is performed by licensed medical professionals using ultrasound-guided precision and a comprehensive evaluation process.

FAQs

What does WJ-MSC IA stand for?

WJ-MSC IA refers to Wharton’s Jelly-derived mesenchymal signaling cell therapy administered through an intra-articular (joint) injection.

This regenerative treatment is designed to support joint wellness, mobility, and overall function using biologic material delivered directly into the targeted joint area.

What joints can be treated?

Treatment may be considered for several joints depending on your individual needs and provider evaluation, including:

-Knees

-Ankles
-Shoulders
-Elbows
-Wrists

-Fingers
-Toes

Your provider will determine whether treatment is appropriate during your consultation and medical evaluation.

How long does the procedure take?

The actual treatment is fairly quick and should take about 30 minutes

Is there downtime after treatment?

Most patients are able to return to normal daily activities shortly after treatment, although activity modifications may be recommended depending on the treatment area and your provider’s instructions.

You’ll receive detailed pre- and post-care guidance to support the recovery process.

Does the injection hurt?

Most patients tolerate the procedure well.

To help maximize comfort, the treatment area is numbed prior to the injection. Ultrasound guidance is also used to ensure accurate placement during the procedure.

Some patients may experience temporary soreness or mild discomfort afterward, which is discussed during your appointment.

How soon can I return to normal activities?

Every patient responds differently, and results can vary based on several factors including the treatment area, severity of symptoms, lifestyle, and overall health.

How many treatments may be needed?

Treatment recommendations vary from person to person.

Some patients may only require one treatment, while others may benefit from a more personalized treatment approach depending on their goals and provider recommendations.
