Stem Cell Therapy for Arthritis in Mexico

How Stem Cells Help in Osteoarthritis

​✔​  Stem cells hold the power to develop an entire body from an embryo.

​✔​  They have a unique property to divide infinitely, and can develop into more specialized cell types.

​✔  ​We have the technology to isolate stem cells and re-administer them into the body.

​✔  ​On re-infusing them back into the body, the stem cells populate in the degenerated areas, and change their properties to match those of the resident cells.

​✔​  After isolating and enriching the viable stem cells, these are re-infused to the body through:

Direct Infusion: In this mode, stem cells are directly administered into the targeted joints.

IV Administration: In intravenous administration, cells are infused through veins. By expanding blood volumes using mannitol, it is ensured that a good number of cells reach the affected regions.

​✔​  By paracrine signalling (which is a form of communication at cellular level), the cells develop into damaged cartilage and bone, and improve blood flow.

​✔​  According to many research bodies such as the Canadian Stem Cell Foundation, Mesenchymal cells (MSCs) are flexible enough to differentiate to a number of osteogenic cell types, such as bones, fat, muscles, cartilage, bone marrow, and tendons.

​✔​  MSCs are known to:

    * Calm down the immune system

    * Fight inflammation

    * Promote development of blood vessel network

    * Repair damaged tissue

    * Assist in stem cell engraftment

    * Cartilage regeneration

We have the technology in Mexico to harness stem cells, and use them to treat arthritis.

As Seen On

Our Aim is to Make Stem Cells Therapy Affordable, Accessible, and Effective

For osteoarthritis, Stem cell treatment in Mexico is a new ray of hope for people for whom conventional therapy has not been successful. We also provide stem cell therapy for rheumatoid arthritis and other forms of arthritis.

Medical Tourism Corporation has teamed up with GIOSTAR in Mexico for making this unconventional therapy more accessible to the North Americans. The latter is a stem cell therapy and research institute founded by Dr. Anand Srivastava, a globally-recognized luminary in the field.

What Makes Our Arthritis Stem Cell Treatment Program Different?

We Analyze Each Case Individually

Top Centers in Mexico

Los Algodones

Our center in Los Algodones features the latest equipment and an OR to perform any kind of stem cell application.

Playa Del Carmen

Playa Del Carmen is located in Quintana Roo, Mexico. It is a beautiful beach-side city with lots of tourists from various nationalities and ages. The advantage of coming to this paradisiac destination is that there are 100+ direct (non-stop) flights from the U.S. and Canada to the Cancun International Airport (CUN)

The incredible and warm weather year-round attracts tourists from all over the world, so English has become a common language in the city. Most people on the Cancun Riviera speak English and Spanish, and some even other languages.

Guadalajara

Located in the picturesque city of Guadalajara in Jalisco, San Javier Hospital is the first in Mexico to receive the Specialty Hospital certification.

The hospital features 91 patient rooms (out of which 14 are master suites), 8 intensive care units, and 7 trauma centers. Since Guadalajara has its own international airport, this city is quite accessible for international patients.

What is Osteoarthritis?

It is a degenerative disease primarily affecting the knees, hips, back, and finger joints.

​✔  ​It is caused by breakage of the cartilage, which provides cushioning to the joints and a friction-less surface between them.

​✔  ​Breaking down of cartilage can result in:

​      *  Pain

​      *​  Swelling

​      *​  Problem moving joints

​✔​  Further degeneration with passage of time results in bones becoming brittle and developing extra growth called “spurs.”

​✔​  Chipped off pieces of bones and cartilage may also float around in the joints.

​✔​  This is followed by an inflammatory response in the body, which may result in development of enzymes and protein; this may further destroy the cartilage.

​✔  ​With further progression of arthritis, the cartilage comes off and the exposed joints rub against each other further damaging them and resulting in pain.
