Unlocking a healthier future
How innovations in stem cell therapy may improve our quality of life.
Will stem cell therapy become a better way?
At Moda companies, we’re looking for better ways to improve the health and overall wellbeing of our communities. Our curiosity often extends to the innovations of researchers and health organizations breaking new ground in healthcare.
Stem cell therapy, also known as regenerative biotherapeutics, is one of those innovations that we’re watching closely. Statistically, people are living longer; unfortunately, that often means we suffer from a lower quality of life in our advanced years from chronic diseases and the gradual deterioration of our bodies. But organizations like the Mayo Clinic, are part of a growing group of scientists and providers shifting the healthcare paradigm from fighting diseases to rebuilding your health using your own stem cells.
The research is ongoing. Ultimately, we expect we all will need to adapt and respond to these exciting innovations, which may become the best solution to treat chronic condition, injuries, and conditions related to aging.

What are stem cells?
How can one stem cell transform itself into almost any type of cell? And what does that mean for future treatment? The National Institutes of Health provides the facts about stem cells, so you can better understand the possibilities of this innovative treatment.
How do you use your own stem cells?
Today, many have decided to save their stem cells for future treatment, whether for an injury or a chronic health condition. Extracting your stem cells is a quick, painless procedure, done by companies like Celltex, which then banks your stem cells, keeping them safe until you need them.
What exactly is stem cell therapy?
While not all stem cell therapy has acquired FDA approval, research is underway in the U.S. and worldwide, and the advancements are exciting. As researchers continue their work to prove the safety and efficacy of stem cell therapy, we’re watching the advancements in conditions like autoimmune disorders, vascular diseases, degenerative conditions and neurological disorders. The Center for Regenerative Medicine at Mayo Clinic released a video describing the process.
What are doctors are saying
If you’re curious about what doctors who are currently using stem cell therapies to treat their patients are seeing, this physician panel on advanced techniques in regenerative medicine covers why they use stem cell therapy, the conditions they treat, and techniques unique to stem cell therapy.
