What is Stem Cell Therapy?

Stem Cell Therapy, also known as Cell Therapist treatment, is a breakthrough in orthobiologics that harnesses the body’s own regenerative potential to repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and restore function. Unlike traditional surgery, Stem Cell Therapy focuses on stimulating healing at the cellular level, making it a preferred option for patients who want minimally invasive yet effective solutions for joint pain, tendon injuries, and cartilage degeneration.

At SD Clinic, led by Dr Sashi, a leading orthopaedic specialist in Malaysia, we offer personalised Stem Cell Therapy for patients seeking alternatives to surgery or long-term medication for musculoskeletal conditions.

How Stem Cell Therapy Works

Stem cells are unspecialised cells capable of transforming into bone, cartilage, tendon, or muscle cells. When injected into injured or degenerative tissue, they:

  • Promote natural tissue regeneration
  • Reduce inflammation and swelling
  • Slow down degenerative changes
  • Support long-term joint health

At SD Clinic, Cell Therapist Stem Cell Therapy uses advanced harvesting and processing techniques to ensure high-quality stem cells for optimal results.

Conditions Treated with Stem Cell Therapy

Stem Cell Therapy is widely used in orthopaedics and sports medicine for patients who want faster recovery without invasive surgery. Common conditions include:

  • Osteoarthritis (knee, hip, shoulder, ankle)
  • Cartilage damage due to injury or wear and tear
  • Ligament and tendon injuries (e.g., ACL, rotator cuff, Achilles tendon)
  • Chronic joint pain unresponsive to conventional therapy
  • Sports injuries requiring accelerated healing
  • Back pain and disc problems (select cases)
