Degenerative Disc Disease
Degenerative Disc Disease is a common spinal condition that develops as the discs between the vertebrae naturally wear down over time. As these discs lose hydration and flexibility, they may become less effective at cushioning the spine, leading to chronic neck or back pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
At Cendant Stem Cell Center, we provide advanced regenerative medicine therapies designed to support the body’s natural healing response and help patients explore non-surgical treatment options for Degenerative Disc Disease. Our personalized care plans focus on reducing discomfort, improving mobility, and helping patients maintain an active lifestyle.
Helping You Find Relief from Degenerative Disc Disease Starts Here
Living with Degenerative Disc Disease can make everyday activities such as sitting, standing, walking, bending, or lifting increasingly uncomfortable. While age-related changes are common, persistent spinal pain should not prevent you from living an active and fulfilling life.
At Cendant Stem Cell Center, our physicians perform comprehensive evaluations to identify the source of your symptoms. We develop personalized regenerative medicine treatment plans based on your spinal condition, overall health, and long-term wellness goals.
Common Symptoms of
Degenerative Disc Disease
Chronic Neck or Back Pain
Persistent discomfort that may worsen during movement, prolonged sitting, or standing.
Stiffness
Reduced flexibility that can make bending, twisting, or everyday movement more difficult.
Pain That Radiates
Pain may extend into the shoulders, arms, hips, or legs depending on the affected area of the spine.
Muscle Weakness
Pressure on nearby nerves may contribute to weakness or reduced physical function.
Numbness or Tingling
Some individuals experience tingling sensations in the arms, hands, legs, or feet.
Reduced Mobility
Difficulty performing daily activities due to pain, stiffness, or decreased spinal flexibility.
How Regenerative Medicine Works
Stem cells are often referred to as the body’s natural repair cells because of their ability to support tissue regeneration and healing processes. Depending on your spinal condition, physicians may recommend a combination of regenerative therapies including:
Stem Cells
Designed to support the body’s natural repair and regenerative capabilities.
PRP
Platelet-rich plasma containing natural growth factors that may support the body’s healing response.
Extracellular Matrix
Provides structural support that helps create an environment favorable for tissue repair.
The goal is to support the body’s natural healing response while helping patients reduce discomfort, improve spinal mobility, and enhance their overall quality of life.
