What is tissue support therapy?

Tissue support therapy is a treatment approach involving the injection of tissue support matrix cells. These cells contain your genetic material to stimulate your body to repair and rebuild damaged tissue.

You may need this type of therapy if you have chronic pain or dysfunction due to injury, illness, or a degenerative condition.

Tissue support matrix cells are a powerful source of undifferentiated cells, so the cells are essentially blank slates. As blank slates, they can morph into any type of cell your body needs, including bone, fat, cartilage, and tendon cells.

Astoundingly, tissue support matrix cells are self-renewing, which means they can make more undifferentiated cells for your body to use in the healing process. Tissue support matrix cells also demonstrate immune-mediating activity that helps prevent tissue and joint destruction. 

Where do tissue support therapy cells come from?

Leonard Kaplan, DO, has a decade of experience using the two primary sources of tissue support matrix cells, including:

Your own body

Your body is a rich source of matrix cells. The main two areas to harvest the cells are the abdomen (in the form of fat) and the bone at the top of your pelvis (in the form of bone marrow). Dr. Kaplan can increase the potency of your matrix cells using peptides. 

Exogenous sources

Exogenous (outside the body) sources of tissue support matrix cells include placentas and placental fluid following full-term births. All exogenous sources are screened and processed in high-end labs to ensure their safety.

Dr. Kaplan can discuss which option suits your individual needs the best and may recommend lab-cultured cells in cases of chronic illness where your body’s own cells aren’t strong enough.

How do I prepare for tissue support therapy?

Tissue support therapy works best when you optimize your body beforehand. This process, called preconditioning, helps the matrix cells be more active and gives you the maximum healing effects.

The OWM Integrative Wellness preconditioning program includes three days of intravenous (IV) infusions that contain essential nutrition molecules and supercharged oxygen therapy with three atoms of oxygen versus two. 

Tissue support therapy can work alongside other precision medicine treatments like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to facilitate optimal healing.
