Exosome therapy is not currently available in our practice.
Your body contains an astonishing capacity to heal itself at the cellular level. The administration of exosomes – little fluid sacs called extracellular vesicles – stimulates anti-inflammatory and reparative processes in your body to heal injuries and reduce pain. The exosomes send messages to cells throughout the body, instructing them to repair degenerated or injured tissue.
Why are Exosomes an Important Part of Regenerative Medicine?
Exosomal therapy is applied to a range of ailments:
- Osteoarthritis
- Inflammation
- Injury
- Poor healing
- Chronic pain/joint pain
Exosome treatment uses autologous exosomes collected from your own processed blood to repair older, deteriorated cells.
Here’s how a typical treatment session goes: You relax in the treatment chair. Your blood is collected and mailed to an exosome processing laboratory in Florida. The concentrated exosomes are mailed back to us and ready for injection. Please make an appointment to discuss further.
In order to let the exosomes do their work, you will need to not use anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen for 4 weeks.
How Do Exosomes Work?
Exosomes expose your cells to new growth factors. A growth factor is a protein, and it stimulates cells to grow, differentiate, proliferate and heal.
Exosomes are basically a by-product of a stem cell. In your body, exosomes are released from certain cells, and then travel throughout the body carrying messages to other cells. They contain genetic information and prompt cells to behave in certain ways.
In regenerative medicine applications, exosomes are injected superficially into the treatment area. Some exosome products come from mesenchymal stem cells harvested from human placenta.
The exosomes that we use come from your own blood. The cells undergo rigorous testing for safety and purity standards. These young exosomes communicate with the cells in the treatment area, stimulating the healing process and reducing inflammation.

Consult with Julia Bramwell MD to find out if exosome treatments may be right for you. As a first step, your current symptoms and health conditions must be assessed. After an exam and consultation, you will be armed with the right information to make this choice.
Cost- Exosomes are priced per volume indicated for the body part involved. Exosomes are collected and processed by a US-based FDA-approved pharmacy. They have rigorous safety and quality standards. Prices range from $1500-5000 per procedure and exosome product.
