EmCell Stem Cell Center provides programs for children from the age of thee years as well as for adults of any age who are able to travel to us. The main contraindications are active malignancy and active infection. We do not accept every patient, because the potential efficacy of treatment is just as important to us as safety. If we do not see a genuine possibility to help, we do not admit the patient and we never create false expectations about what stem cells can achieve. Above all, we remain committed to caring deeply for the well-being of every patient.
Scientific Background of Stem Cell Application for Sports and Orthopedic Injuries
Sports and orthopedic injuries often involve damage to muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, or bone, accompanied by local inflammation, pain, and impaired tissue regeneration. Standard treatments typically focus on symptom management rather than promoting natural tissue repair.
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) offer a regenerative approach, addressing the root causes of injury by modulating inflammation, stimulating tissue repair, and supporting functional recovery. Over the past decade, numerous clinical studies and publications have demonstrated the effectiveness of MSC therapy for sports and orthopedic conditions. Evidence shows significant improvements in pain reduction, joint function, tendon healing, cartilage regeneration, and overall mobility in patients receiving MSC-based interventions.
MSCs provide a multi-modal biological approach by:
Tissue Repair and Regeneration: MSCs release growth factors and cytokines that stimulate repair of muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and bone.
Anti-inflammatory Effects: MSCs modulate local inflammation, reducing swelling, pain, and secondary tissue damage.
Pain Reduction: By regulating the immune response and reducing pro-inflammatory signals, MSCs can alleviate pain and discomfort.
Support for Vascularization and Healing: MSCs enhance local blood flow and oxygen delivery, supporting faster recovery and improved tissue resilience.
Exosome and Paracrine Activity: MSCs release extracellular vesicles (exosomes) containing bioactive molecules that aid in cellular communication, regeneration, and tissue remodeling.
The growing body of peer-reviewed publications confirms that MSC therapy is safe, reproducible, and highly promising for musculoskeletal injuries, making it a compelling option for athletes and individuals with orthopedic conditions seeking natural, long-term recovery.

Advanced Cell Therapy Product
Mesenchymal stem cells
Allogeneic stem cells ethically sourced from umbilical cord tissue, a rich source of primitive adult mesenchymal stem cells that retain high proliferative potential.
GMP-compliant manufacturing
GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) guidelines provide a quality assurance framework for manufacturing cell therapy products intended for clinical use. Adherence to GMP standards ensures the identity, purity, potency, and overall quality of the cell product.
Cultivation protocol
We use preconditioning strategies to enhance the therapeutic function of MSCs. Low passage numbers are maintained to preserve optimal potency and reduce the associated risk of cancer. Our stem cell products are cultured in xeno-free media.
Safety control
Sterility testing is a crucial step in releasing MSC-based cell therapy products. We conduct safety checks at every stage of production, including microbial testing, endotoxin detection, and viral screening using PCR.
Quality control
Each batch undergoes a quality check that includes morphology control, phenotype analysis, proliferative potential, cell viability, differentiation control, and extracellular vesicle (exosome) secretion, all of which indicate the stability of our cell lines.
Final control before clinical use
Before therapy, we perform final viability and quantity checks on our preparations to ensure their quality. These assessments confirm the health, integrity, and functionality of the cells. Our viability.
No risk of rejection
HUCT mesenchymal stem cells are naturally compatible with the body, so there is no risk of rejection and no need for HLA matching.
Ready-to-use
No invasive procedures are required, no stimulation or depletion of the patient’s own body, and no risk of unsuccessful preparation (cultivation). In contrast, our highly effective mesenchymal stem cells are always available in convenient, ready-to-use dosages designed for safe and effective results.
Secretome
Our bodies are regulated by tiny messengers called secretomes — such as exosomes, cytokines, growth factors, and other active molecules. HUCT mesenchymal stem cells are one of the richest sources of these secretomes, naturally supporting growth, repair, and regeneration.
Expected Benefits of Our Sports and Orthopedic Injuries Stem Cell Therapy
Imagine experiencing:
- Faster recovery from injuries, allowing you to return to daily activities or sports more quickly
- Improved joint flexibility, muscle strength, and overall mobility, making movements smoother and more comfortable
- Decreased pain, swelling, and inflammation, reducing reliance on long-term medications or pain relievers
- Enhanced tissue repair and structural support for muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and bones
- Reduced risk of chronic degeneration or re-injury, supporting long-term joint and musculoskeletal health
- Improved athletic performance and endurance, helping you maintain or regain your competitive edge
- Overall enhancement of quality of life and physical well-being, promoting confidence, independence, and vitality
Stem cell therapy may also serve as a non-surgical alternative, potentially helping patients avoid or delay invasive procedures such as joint replacement or ligament reconstruction.
Note: Outcomes may vary depending on individual factors, including the type and severity of the injury, age, and overall health. A personalized stem cell program is designed to optimize recovery, support natural healing processes, and help patients regain strength, function, and comfort.

You Probably Have Questions.
We’re Here to Help.
What are the contraindications for stem cell treatment? Can anyone become a patient?
Are there any side effects?
Multiple peer-reviewed studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells are a safe cell product. At EmCell Stem Cell Center, we have never had any patients report harmful effects from their infusion or a worsening of their condition.
Common short-term side effects immediately following the cell infusion may include fatigue, headache, and nausea. Patients are under direct medical supervision for the entire treatment and a recovery period of 1–2 hours. We have not observed any side effects.
How long does it take to see results?
Patients have reported measurable results within 3–6 months following the program. This is indicated by a marked reduction in systemic inflammation and improvements in overall vitality, as measured by our follow-up questionnaire. However, it is common for patients to notice enhancements in their quality of life and a reduction in symptoms within the first few weeks after their infusion. Every patient is unique, and responses to the program may vary.
What are exosomes?
Exosomes are tiny particles naturally released by cells that carry important signals, proteins, genetic material and factors. They help cells communicate with each other, support tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and promote healthy brain and immune system function.
Why can’t I receive the same stem cell treatments in the USA?
In the United States, stem cell therapies are only available through FDA-approved clinical trials, and full approvals are still years away. U.S. regulations also restrict the number of cells used, since expansion (growing more cells) is not permitted. While some clinics in the U.S. may offer treatments outside these regulations, the key concern is whether patients are receiving safe, certified, and high-quality stem cells.
At EmCell Stem Cell Center, we are fully licensed and authorized by the Government of Antigua and Barbuda and its Stem Cell Oversight Committee, and our laboratory is also licensed by the Ukrainian national regulatory authority to perform expanded stem cell procedures. This enables us to provide patients with millions of high-quality, clinically tested cells per treatment—something not currently available in the United States.
