Human Cellular Tissue Therapy
Human Cellular Tissue – Use in Regenerative Medicine
Enhancing Healing and Reducing Pain
Human Cellular Tissue Therapy (HCTT) is an innovative medical procedure (a form of regenerative medicine) that has gained attention for its potential to enhance healing, reduce pain, and provide a non-surgical alternative for various conditions. This therapy utilizes the regenerative properties of human cellular tissue products to promote tissue repair and stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. It is able to achieve this by helping to reduce inflammation markers and modulating the immune system.
What Is Regenerative Medicine & How Can It Help You?
Regenerative medicine is a multifaceted field involving repair, replacement, and regeneration of damaged or impaired organs, tissues, and cells. It is a cell-based therapy that consists of the injection of human tissue or progenitor cells. The goal is to mitigate the negative effects of disease by reducing symptoms and halting medical conditions.
Each adult cell has regenerative properties that can be reprogrammed to repair or replace tissue or organ function. Regenerative medicine holds the potential to revolutionize how we treat illness and disease.
Consider Benefits of Human Cellular Tissue Therapy
- Enhanced Healing: HCTT can enhance wound healing and tissue repair by delivering cells that promote the growth of new tissue. It has shown promising results in treating conditions like chronic wounds, orthopedic injuries, and musculoskeletal disorders.
- Reduced Pain: Many patients experience long-term pain relief with HCTT. By addressing the underlying cause of pain and promoting tissue regeneration, this therapy can potentially provide lasting relief without the need for invasive surgical procedures or long-term medication use.
- Minimally Invasive: HCTT is a minimally invasive procedure, often performed in an outpatient setting. This means that treatment and recovery time are typically minimal, allowing patients to resume their daily activities sooner.
- Customizable Approach: The versatility of HCTT allows it to be tailored to the specific needs of each patient. Whether it is joint pain, sports injuries, or degenerative conditions, the therapy can be customized to target the affected area effectively.
- Natural Healing: HCTT harnesses the regenerative potential of the body’s own cells to promote healing. By utilizing human cellular tissue products, this therapy avoids the use of synthetic substances and focuses on stimulating the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
The Process & Procedure and What Should You Expect
There are several key processes that contribute to the successful implementation of regenerative medicine techniques such as HCTT. This form of therapy begins with a patient evaluation that ultimately leads to the actual injection of cellular products into the affected area. The precise technique and dosage will vary depending on your current medical condition.
While the specific details of this form of therapy vary with each patient depending on the nature of the treatment and the patient’s condition, below is an overview of the general steps involved:
Patient Evaluation
The initial step involves a comprehensive evaluation of your medical history, physical condition, and suitability for the procedure. This will help Dr. Jason Kaster and the team at West Coast Integrative Wellness determine if you are a suitable candidate for Human Cellular Tissue therapy.
Cell Harvesting
Depending on the treatment, cells may be harvested from your own body or obtained from an external source. Autologous cell harvesting involves extracting cells from your own tissues, such as adipose tissue or bone marrow, through minimally invasive procedures. Allogeneic cell harvesting involves utilizing cells from a donor source that have undergone thorough screening and testing. Allographs are donated from a planned birth and come from the umbilical cord known as Whartons jelly.
Cell Processing
Once harvested, the cells undergo processing in a laboratory setting. This process may involve isolation, purification, and expansion of the cells to ensure an adequate number of viable cells for therapeutic use. Cell processing techniques adhere to strict regulatory guidelines and quality control measures to maintain safety and efficacy.
Preparation & Allocation
Following cell processing, the prepared cellular product is typically combined with a carrier material or scaffold. This scaffold provides structural support and guidance for the cells to promote proper tissue regeneration. The choice of scaffold material can vary, ranging from natural proteins to synthetic substances.
Delivery & Implementation (The Procedure)
The cellular product combined with the scaffold is then delivered to the target area in a minimally invasive manner. This involves injections or other specialized techniques depending on the treatment’s objectives and the area being treated. The precise placement of the cellular product will optimize its effectiveness and encourage tissue repair and regeneration.
Post-Procedure Care
After the Human Cellular Tissue procedure, you will receive from our team specific guidelines for post-procedure care and follow-up. This typically includes recommendations for rest (avoiding strenuous activities), limited activity, proper wound care, applying cold packs to reduce swelling, and taking any prescribed medications as directed. Regular monitoring and follow-up appointments with Dr. Kaster will be essential to assess progress, address any concerns, and tailor the treatment plan if necessary.
Who is a Good Candidate for HCTT?
Human Cellular Tissue Therapy may be suitable for individuals seeking alternative treatment options for conditions such as chronic pain, orthopedic injuries, sports injuries, and certain degenerative disorders. However, each case is unique, and that is why here at West Coast Integrative Wellness we help determine if this therapy is appropriate for your specific condition and medical history.
It is worth noting that while HCTT shows promising results, it may not be a viable option for everyone. Factors such as age, overall health, and the severity of the condition will be taken into consideration when determining candidacy for the treatment.

What are Cytosomes?
Cytosomes, which are small extracellular vesicles enclosed in membranes, are released by the developing fetus, placenta, and mother into the amniotic fluid. These vesicles, also known as extracellular vesicles (EVs), play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication, thereby aiding the natural regenerative process. Acting as effective messengers within the body, cytosomes serve as carriers that package and transmit signals between cells.
