Additional information
Designed for patients experiencing chronic lower back discomfort, disc degeneration, or age-related spinal wear and tear who are seeking a supportive regenerative approach alongside conventional care.
This program utilizes UC-MSCs (Umbilical Cord–Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells) administered directly into the affected lumbar spine levels. Treatment is commonly performed across L3–L5 levels, with approximately 10-25 million cells per level depending on MRI findings, severity, age, and overall patient condition.
The procedure is performed by our neurosurgical team in an operating room setting at our partnered hospital under fluoroscopic (real-time X-ray) guidance for precise injection placement
Treatment aims to support lower back comfort, mobility, daily function, and spinal health, while potentially helping slow further degeneration progression in some patients depending on their condition and lifestyle factors.

How are we doing?
About the clinic
Stem cell therapy for back pain is available at EDNA Wellness in Bangkok, Thailand. This regenerative treatment uses allogeneic umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells to help manage chronic pain and disc degeneration. The clinic is known for its GMP-certified laboratory and oversight by a board-certified neurosurgeon, though specific pricing depends on the required cell dosage and injection method.
Advanced Stem Cell Protocol
The clinic uses mesenchymal stem cells sourced from the Wharton’s jelly of healthy, full-term umbilical cords. These cells are processed in a laboratory certified by the Thailand Institute of Scientific and Technological Research. The therapy works through paracrine signaling. This process helps reduce inflammation and supports the repair of the disc microenvironment. While it does not regrow lost tissue, it helps manage pain caused by mild-to-moderate disc degeneration and facet joint inflammation. Patients typically see peak benefits within one to three months after the procedure.
Specialized Medical Oversight
Dr. Pongwat Polpong leads the medical team as the Chief Physician and a board-certified neurosurgeon. Dr. Pongwat Polpong reviews every case personally to determine if a patient is a suitable candidate. The clinic focuses on honesty, informing patients if their spinal condition requires surgery rather than regenerative therapy. Candidates usually include individuals aged 25 to 50 with early-stage degenerative disc disease or discogenic pain without severe herniation.
Procedure and Delivery
Treatment at EDNA Wellness involves two main delivery methods depending on the patient's specific needs. Doctors may perform a local injection directly into the affected disc or area. They also offer intravenous infusions for a systemic effect. Local doses range from 10 million to 100 million cells. For systemic support, the dosage is calculated at 1 to 2 million cells per kilogram of body weight. Most injections are outpatient procedures performed in a sterile clinical setting.
Safety and Quality Standards
EDNA Wellness holds multiple international certifications, including ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 17025:2017. These standards ensure the traceability and quality of the cells used. If a case requires precise image guidance, the clinic has access to partner private hospitals for fluoroscopy-guided injections. Patients receive 24-hour support after the procedure, with follow-up appointments scheduled over the following six months to monitor progress.
