What is Wharton’s jelly?

Wharton’s jelly, available at Advanced Integrated Medical, consists of substances sourced from tissues that cushion and support the umbilical cord. Wharton’s jelly injections also contain hyaluronic acid, collagen, elastin, and other substances stimulating cell growth and natural healing.

Wharton’s jelly is a naturally found connective tissue that surrounds arteries and a vein in umbilical cords. These injections are safe when obtained from a lab; they’ve been tested for quality and purity.

How is Wharton’s jelly used?

Your Advanced Integrated Medical provider could recommend Wharton’s jelly if you struggle with:

• Joint pain
• Muscle, tendon, or ligament injuries
• Stiffness
• Inflammation
• Tissue damage
• Age-related wear-and-tear
• Achiness
• Reduced range of motion
• Limited mobility
• Joint friction
• Other musculoskeletal problems

Wharton’s jelly helps reduce inflammation, pain, and damaged tissues naturally. It also reduces the need to take pain medicines or undergo invasive procedures. The substance lubricates your joints to ease friction and the discomfort it causes.

Is Wharton’s jelly right for me?

To determine if Wharton’s jelly or other injections are right for you, the Advanced Integrated Medical specialists review your medical history and symptoms. They ask about your treatment preferences and lifestyle.

They examine your joints and other painful areas of your body. They could suggest blood tests, X-rays, an MRI, or other imaging procedures to diagnose your condition and develop an effective treatment plan.

What should I expect during Wharton’s jelly injections?

Before completing Wharton’s jelly injections, your provider numbs the treatment area to ensure maximum comfort. They gently inject stem cells into your body’s painful or injured areas while you relax on an exam table. The treatment is fast and painless.

What happens after receiving Wharton’s jelly injections?

After treatment with Wharton’s jelly, you might have redness or tenderness at the site of the injections. Ice the treatment area to reduce swelling. As new cells grow, you can expect faster healing, reduced swelling, and less pain.

Your provider could suggest several treatments using Wharton’s jelly over time to achieve the best results. They let you know when to schedule your subsequent treatment.
