Episode Notes

It's 2025, and many things that used to seem like magic are now commonplace - so why are we still walking (or limping) around with sore knees?

The truth is, while medical science has been advancing at an incredible speed, it sometimes takes a while for the latest and greatest techniques to filter down to the point where they're accessible to the general public. When it comes to stem cells, that time is now. I spoke to some local specialists to get all the details, and I'll give you the low-down, but to get all the facts, or to book a consultation with a specialist, just follow the link in the description.

While there are several treatments currently available that help temporarily treat the pain and stiffness of osteoarthritis, a new stem cell treatment may help you to regenerate the missing cartilage and treat the underlying cause. I spoke to some local experts from the London Cartilage Clinic, to explore how this new technique works, who it can benefit, and how to find a local expert.

You've probably heard of stem cells before. These treatments have been undergoing clinical research for more than 70 years, but it is only in the last decade or so that the treatments have started to become more commonly available. I found a local clinic that not only specializes in stem cell research and application, but also offers these techniques to the public.

They explained everything, from how stem cells help the body naturally heal and regenerate cartilage tissue, to how this can reduce pain or discomfort while improving the knee’s range of motion and joint function. I wouldn't say that stem cells are necessarily a cure, but they are a better treatment.

What you need to know is that while individual results can vary, as with any treatment, research suggests that stem cell treatments are a low-risk option, which can even help to reduce the need for invasive surgeries. They won't turn back the clock to when you were a teenager, but they can help to regenerate some cartilage, and sometimes that's enough to prevent the need for something more drastic.

What's really neat about stem cells, if you ask me, is what you actually get as a long-term result. Research suggests stem cell treatments can sometimes be effective at eliminating or reducing pain and stiffness for up to several years, and if you've been dealing with regular knee injections, you'll know that's a big deal.

However, please keep in mind, this strategy is not ideal for all conditions or patients, and experts recommend a comprehensive consultation with a specialist before scheduling the procedure.

I spoke with experts from the London Cartilage Clinic for two reasons, the first is that they're the best local experts on stem cell research and treatments. The second is that they offer a fast access program that allows any new or existing patients to schedule their own appointments, with no waiting lists and no GP referral required.

They make getting the care you need, easy.

You choose your own specialist online, and schedule appointments for consultation, diagnosis, or treatment, at your earliest convenience.

It's 2025, and medicine has advanced far past where it was in our youth. We have newer, better, longer-lasting options that would have been considered magical only a few decades ago.

You still need to take the first step, though, and make an appointment with a specialist. They can handle the bulk of the treatment, but the first phone call is all you.
