Regenerative Medicine also known as Stem Cell Therapy for Degenerative Disc Disease is an alternative option to help manage your symptoms.
With Regenerative Medicine Therapy, also known as Stem Cell Therapy for Degenerative Disc Disease, you have rebuilding and pain management options.
Whether you have recently experienced or battling this condition for years, this breakthrough in Regenerative Medicine may be a potential opportunity for an alternative option in your journey to wellness.
Studies have shown the following potential symptom improvements:
Low back pain is one of the most widely diagnosed conditions in the world. In the U.S., it’s common throughout adulthood but is especially prevalent for adults under the age of 50. Although there are many causes of low back pain, one common culprit is intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration or degenerative disc disease.
More than 3 million people in the U.S. are diagnosed with degenerative disc disease every year. The condition occurs when one more disc, which acts as padding between the vertebrae, breaks down, causing pain. These discs cushion the spine against stress during movement and weight-bearing activity, and they also help the spine bend. Factors such as aging, injury, and repeated daily stress can cause changes in disc structure and loss of fluid in the discs. The body may build bone spurs to compensate for the damaged discs. Discs can also bulge, known as a herniated disc. Other issues may include a narrowing of the spinal canal and cartilage breakdown.
Degenerative disc disease and its host of complications can produce a number of symptoms. In some cases, pain can be severe enough to interfere with daily activities. Symptoms typically progress with age and may include:
Because there is no cure for degenerative disc disease, treatment options are limited. Physical therapy and targeted exercises may help to strengthen and stabilize the affected areas while promoting mobility. Surgical interventions, including spinal fusions and decompression procedures to remove part of the joint, may also be used in cases characterized by persistent pain.
Regenerative medicine therapy is an emerging researched treatment that has the natural potential to address many chronic conditions. Stem Cell Therapy for Degenerative Disc Disease, in particular, is an option for those looking to manage their symptoms from a degenerative condition. Mesenchymal stem cells have the potential to differentiate into various types of cells, including bone, cartilage, and muscle cells. In studies, they have shown the ability to form cartilage-like tissue to regenerate intervertebral discs.
Stem Cell Therapy for Degenerative Disc Disease has been studied for safety and has been found to have few to no side effects. It is, therefore, an option to consider for patients who may not have responded to other therapies, or for those who wish to explore alternatives to invasive surgery.
Regenerative Medicine is still considered an experimental procedure and not approved by the FDA. Patients must consider realistic expectations in their research and possible therapy options.

Medical Review: Dr. Gerald Mastaw, MD – Board-Certified PhysicianLast Updated: October 2025 What Is Degenerative Disc Disease? Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) occurs when the spinal discs, the soft, cushion-like pads between vertebrae, begin to lose hydration, elasticity, and height.As discs deteriorate, they absorb less shock, which can lead to pain, stiffness, and nerve irritation if…
Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is one of the most common causes of chronic low back pain. It happens when the spinal discs, which act like cushions between the bones of the spine, begin to wear down over time. This process is often part of normal aging, but it can also be influenced by genetics, lifestyle,…
Chronic back pain is one of the most common health complaints worldwide, especially among older adults. As the population continues to age, spinal conditions such as intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) are becoming increasingly common. These conditions not only cause physical discomfort but also impact mental well-being, reduce mobility, and lead to increased healthcare costs. Researchers…
