Portland, Oregon

MFAT Stem Cell Therapy

Why Stem Cell Banking?

Banking your stem cells is the process of harvesting and preserving your own cells so that they can be replicated ("cultured") and ordered on-demand for your health needs. This allows for you undergo a single cell harvest procedure in our office followed by a lifetime supply of your own mesenchymal stem cells. â€‹â€‹

​

Mesenchymal stem cells are abundant in fat tissue well into 80+ years of age and, just like in our MFAT Stem Cell Therapy for orthopedic procedures, easily obtained in-office. 

​

Banked Mesenchymal Stem Cells have a variety of beneficial properties and can be used for:

  • Autoimmune conditions

  • Neurological disorders

  • Pulmonary dysfunction

  • Biohacking and Wellness

​​

We believe the evidence shows that our MFAT Stem Cell Therapy is best for orthopedic conditions like osteoarthritis, tears, and joint pain. Stem Cell Banking offers a premium method of administering stem cells for systemic health concerns. 

​

Banked Stem Cells are ordered through our partner, American Cell Technology, then administered in our office via intravenous (IV) infusion. 

​

By using your own, personalized cells, you eliminate rejection risk, ensure cell viability, and know the source.
