Overview

Chicago Stem Cell Therapy and Pain Management Institute is a private medical practice in Frankfort, Illinois, in the far southern Chicago suburbs. It was founded by and is medically directed by an anaesthesiologist who also practises interventional pain management, and the site states that all treatments are performed by a physician. The practice describes itself as accredited by the Joint Commission, an independent body that inspects United States healthcare organisations.

The practice offers two overlapping lines of care. The first is conventional interventional pain management for spine and joint pain. The second is regenerative medicine, using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) made from the patient's own blood, bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) taken from the patient's pelvis, fat (adipose) tissue, and donor-derived products including exosomes. Exosomes are tiny particles released by cells; the site says its exosomes come from mesenchymal stem cells collected from placental tissue after a healthy live birth, processed at a facility it describes as inspected by the United States Food and Drug Administration and compliant with Good Manufacturing Practice.

Beyond injections the practice lists shockwave therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, supplements and strength training consultations. Its published condition list is very wide, extending well past orthopaedics into autoimmune and neurological disease. The site is clear that this work is self-pay: it states these treatments are not covered by insurance.
