Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint condition characterized by the gradual breakdown of cartilage, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
It commonly affects:
- knees
- hips
- spine
🧠 Disease Progression
As cartilage wears down, bones begin to rub against each other, causing:
- inflammation
- pain
- joint deformity
⚠️ Limitations of Conventional Treatment
Standard treatments include:
- anti-inflammatory medications
- injections
- joint replacement surgery
However, these approaches do not regenerate cartilage.
🔬 Stem Cell Therapy Approach
Stem cell therapy is being studied as a way to:
- support cartilage repair
- reduce inflammation
- improve joint function
In Barcelona, a specialized team with over 25 years of experience is developing regenerative protocols for joint conditions.
