Advanced regenerative therapy for knees, hips, shoulders, and the spine
If you’re suffering from chronic pain in your knees, hips, shoulders, or spine, and are looking for a non-surgical, regenerative treatment option, Wharton’s Jelly injections may offer the relief and healing you’ve been searching for.
What Is Wharton’s Jelly?
Wharton’s Jelly is a natural, gel-like tissue found in the umbilical cord. It’s rich in powerful healing components that make it ideal for treating joint and spinal conditions. These include:
•Growth factors – stimulate tissue repair
•Cytokines – help regulate inflammation
•Hyaluronic acid – lubricates and cushions joints
•Extracellular matrix proteins – support tissue structure and regeneration
•Mesenchymal stem cell-derived signals – promote healing at the cellular level
Wharton’s Jelly is obtained from ethically donated, full-term umbilical cords and processed in FDA-compliant, sterile laboratories. No fetal tissue is used, and there are no live cells, reducing risk of rejection or side effects.
How Does It Work?
When Wharton’s Jelly is injected into large joints (such as the knees, hips, or shoulders) or along the spine, it delivers regenerative signals that help:
•Reduce inflammation
•Relieve pain
•Stimulate healing of cartilage, ligaments, and soft tissue
•Improve joint mobility and function
These injections are precisely guided using ultrasound or fluoroscopy to ensure the regenerative material reaches the targeted area effectively.
Conditions That May Benefit from Wharton’s Jelly Injections:
•Knee osteoarthritis
•Hip degeneration or labral damage
•Rotator cuff injuries or shoulder arthritis
•Spinal arthritis (facet joints)
•Degenerative disc disease
•Sacroiliac joint dysfunction
Whether your pain is due to aging, overuse, or injury, Wharton’s Jelly may help support your body’s natural healing processes.
What to Expect During the Procedure
•Outpatient, in-office procedure
•Performed by a board-certified pain management physician
•Ultrasound or fluoroscopy is used for guidance
•Minimal downtime – most patients return to normal activity within 24–48 hours
•A typical session takes about 30–45 minutes
Some patients feel improvement within a few weeks, while others may benefit from a series of treatments depending on their condition.
Are There Risks or Side Effects?
Wharton’s Jelly injections are considered very safe when performed by trained professionals.
Side effects are rare and may include:
•Mild soreness or swelling at the injection site
•Temporary stiffness
•Rare allergic or inflammatory response
Because there are no live cells or donor DNA, the risk of rejection or serious reaction is extremely low.
Why Choose a Pain Specialist?
These injections should only be performed by a board-certified pain management or interventional regenerative medicine physician. They have the training to:
•Accurately diagnose your condition
•Use advanced imaging guidance for precise injections
•Safely perform procedures in a sterile environment
•Develop a personalized treatment plan for your specific needs
Is Wharton’s Jelly Right for You?
If you’re dealing with chronic joint or spine pain and want to avoid invasive surgery or long-term medication use, Wharton’s Jelly may be a natural, effective alternative.
This regenerative treatment is especially beneficial for those:
•Looking to delay or avoid joint replacement
•Wanting to stay active without daily pain
•Seeking a more natural, biologic approach to healing
