Chiropractic and holistic primary care practice in Lexington, Kentucky offering injections of amniotic-derived cells for joint and soft tissue pain.
Skinner Wellness Center, also known as Skinner Chiropractic & Wellness, is a practice in Lexington, Kentucky that describes itself as holistic primary care and combines chiropractic treatment with a range of general wellness services.
Its stem cell service is an injection treatment. The website states the injected material contains amniotic stem cells, hyaluronic acid and cytokines — that is, a donor-derived product from amniotic tissue rather than cells taken from the patient. It is offered for bone and soft tissue problems and for arthritis in the knee, shoulder, hip, elbow, ankle and wrist.
Two things are worth noting before contacting them. First, no physician or other treating clinician is named anywhere on the stem cell page, so it is not clear from the site who performs the injections or what their qualifications are. Second, no price is given. Both are reasonable questions to ask on the phone. Readers should also be aware that products described as amniotic stem cell injections are a contested area; ask what specifically is in the product and what evidence supports its use in your condition.
The list covers most major joints. Ask what evidence supports the injection in your specific joint and condition, and who will be performing it.
The product is donor-derived rather than taken from the patient.
