What Is Personal Cell Therapy?
Personal cell therapy is an innovative treatment that uses the body's own resources to accelerate healing and repair. At Vitality Health and Wellness Center in Toledo, OH, the team specializes in this cutting-edge approach by extracting cells from a patient's blood, bone marrow, or fat, and concentrating essential elements like growth factors, proteins, and stem cells. These concentrated cells are then strategically reintroduced into the body, specifically targeting areas such as injured joints, ligaments, and tendons. This advanced therapy enhances the body's natural healing processes, offering an effective alternative to traditional treatments that may rely on medications.
How Does Personal Cell Therapy Work?
Personal cell therapy at Vitality Health and Wellness Center involves several advanced techniques that harness the body's own cells to promote healing and regeneration. Patients can expect a personalized treatment plan that may include one or more of the following methods:
- Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP): This involves drawing a small blood sample, which is then processed to concentrate the platelets. These platelets are rich in growth factors that initiate the healing process. The PRP is injected into injured or degenerated areas to accelerate tissue repair.
- Bone Marrow Concentrate: In this procedure, bone marrow is extracted from the pelvis and processed to concentrate stem cells and other healing factors. The concentrate is injected into targeted areas, often under imaging guidance, to improve cellular function and promote regeneration.
- Stem Cells from Fat: Fat tissue, particularly in older patients, is a valuable source of stem cells. A small amount of fat is removed via mini-liposuction, and the stem cells are isolated and concentrated. These cells can then be injected into areas needing repair or administered intravenously for broader therapeutic effects.
Patients undergoing these treatments can expect a minimally invasive process to enhance the body's natural ability to heal itself, leading to improved function and reduced pain. Additionally, patients are encouraged to consider cell banking as part of their treatment plan. This allows them to preserve their stem cells for future use, ensuring that they have a ready supply of regenerative cells available for any potential medical needs down the road.
What Are the Benefits of Personal Cell Therapy?
Unlike steroids, which provide temporary pain relief but can ultimately damage joints, ligaments, and tendons, personal cell therapy offers a regenerative approach to healing. Instead of merely masking the pain, this innovative treatment works to repair and strengthen damaged tissues, promoting long-term recovery. Here are some key benefits of personal cell therapy:
- Harnesses the body's natural healing processes
- Targets and repairs injured joints, ligaments, and tendons
- Reduces the need for potentially harmful drugs or invasive surgeries
- Minimizes the risk of further injury or complications
- Promotes long-term recovery and improved function
This therapy not only addresses the root cause of the pain but also supports the overall health of the affected tissues, providing a more sustainable solution for patients.
Vitality Health and Wellness Center Reviews
I absolutely LOVE the staff and Amanda has changed my life for the better! She reviewed my labs and figured out my issue and I could not be happier! 10/10 recommend!
I received my first ever Botox injections from Gabrielle Parr and I had an amazing experience. I was nervous and unsure of exactly what I was looking for at first, but with an in depth consultation I felt confident that she was going to be able to provide great results! She is so kind and knowledgeable. I am extremely happy with my results and I feel like they enhance my natural beauty. I can’t wait to book my next appointment with her!
I went to Vitality and was seen by Gabrielle P RN and had a wonderful experience ! She was professional, knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable for my treatment. I would recommend her for any and all of your health, regenerative and wellness needs! All of my questions were answered and the information that was shared was very helpful! I will definitely be coming back ! Thank you Gabrielle and Vitality!
Earlier this Spring my husband and I were researching HRT, what it might do for us, weighing the pros & cons, cost, etc. Vitality came up the top result, and we scheduled our appointment. The staff at The Vitality Center is very welcoming. Amanda (NP) is the best. She shared with us her own story, answered all of our questions, the serious and the ridiculous. She addressed our concerns, possible side effects, nothing was left on the table. We decided to move forward. We both responded very well soon after our first round, and now living with amazing results. Energy is back, also better sleep, metabolic function is improved, sharper mental focus, confidence. If you are lacking in any of the above, or just don't feel "right" in your body & mind as I did, stop reading this review and call Vitality. You will be glad you did. We are both mid-50's and feel 20 years younger. It's incredible.
I could go on and on about how Vitality Health and Wellness saved me! I have been seeing Amanda and the team for 2 years and have seen and felt nothing but great results! I have referred family, friends and co workers, who also have had great results! Feeling foggy, lethargic and unmotivated doesn't have to be you, see Amanda for a better life!!

Am I A Candidate For Personal Cell Therapy?
Determining if you are a good candidate for Personal cell therapy depends on several factors, including your overall health, the specific condition you're looking to treat, and your body's response to traditional treatments. Ideal candidates are typically those who suffer from chronic joint, ligament, or tendon issues that have not responded well to conventional therapies like steroids or physical therapy. Additionally, if you prefer a more natural, regenerative approach to healing and want to avoid surgery or long-term medication use, Personal cell therapy may be an excellent option. It's important to consult with the team at Vitality Health and Wellness Center, who will evaluate your medical history, current health status, and treatment goals to determine if this innovative therapy is right for you.
Personal Cell Therapy FAQs
Are these treatments designed to cure diseases?
While regenerative medicine is rapidly advancing with promising developments, it's essential to understand that treatments such as PRP, BMA, fat-derived stem cells, and other regenerative products are not intended to diagnose, cure, or prevent any diseases. Healthcare professionals involved in the Cell Surgical Network contribute data to Regenetrak, a database that records patient outcomes from regenerative treatments, particularly those involving SVF or fat stem cells. If you're curious, we can provide you with this data.
Where do the stem cells originate?
Stem cells or stem cell products can be sourced from bone marrow, fat, and placental tissues. Although placental tissues share similarities with your own cells, they are not identical to your personal cells. Stem cells that come directly from your body are called autologous and are generally regarded as the most effective source.
What is adult autologous stem cell therapy?
Autologous refers to stem cells harvested from the individual's own body. This approach offers significant benefits, including the elimination of rejection risks. When used correctly, these cells can significantly improve healing and help manage symptoms effectively.
Is the procedure painful?
Local anesthetic is used to reduce discomfort during bone marrow or fat harvesting procedures. While intravenous sedation is available if desired, it is not necessary for the procedure to be performed safely and comfortably.
How do Bone Marrow and Fat-Derived Stem Cells Compare to Placental/Umbilical/Fetal Stem Cells?
Limited evidence supports the survival and differentiation of live stem cells from the placenta when used in treatments. However, these cells do contain valuable growth factors. Some dehydrated placental products may have FDA RMAT approval, but it's important to understand that they do not contain live cells. Using your stem cells, whether from adipose tissue or bone marrow, is generally considered the best option.
What side effects or complications can occur with regenerative therapies?
Stem cell harvesting and deployment are generally regarded as safe for patients. After the extraction of stem cells, some patients may experience mild discomfort or bruising at the harvesting site, which can last for a few days or longer. The deployment process through injection or infusion is also considered safe, though rare complications or side effects may still occur. These procedures are typically performed on an outpatient basis, and your healthcare provider will explain any potential risks before your treatment.
How long does the treatment take?
Most injection procedures are completed within 15 – 30 minutes. However, certain spine injections, especially those targeting a lumbar disc, may require more preparation time and take longer. Collecting and processing blood for Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) typically takes around ten minutes. Harvesting and processing bone marrow usually take about 30 minutes or more. While fat extraction takes approximately 30 minutes, separating stem cells from fat takes an additional 90 minutes.
How much does treatment cost?
The cost can vary depending on the procedure, technique, and individual patient needs. We can discuss your options and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your situation.
How long does it take to see results from treatment?
While some patients might notice an immediate response from their stem cell treatment, most may not see results until up to 6 months after the procedure. It's important to remember that each patient's situation is unique and influenced by various factors. Additionally, like any medical treatment, results can vary, and not all patients may experience improvements from stem cell therapy.
Is this procedure FDA-approved?
Regenerative medicine treatments do not have specific FDA approval. The FDA does not regulate the practice of medicine, and regenerative therapies are considered a part of medical practice. At Vitality Health and Wellness Centers, we follow FDA guidelines in administering these treatments and do not make medical claims about their effectiveness. While there is growing evidence of potential benefits for various conditions and diseases, regenerative therapies like PRP, Bone Marrow concentrate, and Stromal Vascular Fraction from fat are not used to diagnose, treat, or cure any disease.
