How Back & Disc Degeneration is treated

Chronic back pain frequently stems from degenerative disc disease—loss of hydration and structural integrity in intervertebral discs—compounded by facet joint arthritis and paraspinal muscle atrophy. Stem cell strategies target the nucleus pulposus (disc centre), where placental mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may regenerate proteoglycan matrix and restore biomechanical function. Exosomes derived from stem cells penetrate the avascular disc environment and deliver anti-inflammatory proteins that suppress catabolic pathways. Unlike surgical fusion, which immobilises segments, cell-based approaches aim to restore disc biology whilst preserving motion. MSCs also modulate neuropathic pain via immune suppression, addressing pain signalling independent of structural restoration. Thirty-five registered trials globally investigate disc regeneration and pain outcomes; two actively recruit new participants. It is delivered under a physician-led protocol and designed to complement your existing care.

Evidence: Reported reductions in disc-related pain in selected patients. (clinical studies). Offered as an individualised programme, not a guaranteed cure.
