Shoulder pain can make it hard to reach overhead, sleep on your side or get through a workout. Stem Cells LA offers non-surgical shoulder stem cell therapy for rotator cuff problems, tendon pain and shoulder arthritis from our clinic at 1970 S Prospect Ave, Suite #2, in Redondo Beach, serving patients across Los Angeles and the South Bay.
Patients come to us for shoulder stem cell therapy with problems like these:
Complete tendon tears with retraction, dislocations and some labral injuries may need a surgical opinion. If imaging suggests that, we tell you.
We use allograft stem cells from donated umbilical cords. The cord blood is processed into a solution with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), other supporting cells, exosomes, cytokines and growth factors. MSCs release signaling molecules associated with lower inflammation and tissue repair, and they can develop into tissue types such as tendon, cartilage and bone.
The solution is injected into the injured tendon, the joint or the tissue around it. The aim of shoulder stem cell therapy is to calm inflammation and support healing in tissue that has a limited blood supply and is often slow to recover on its own. Research is ongoing and results vary, so we explain the evidence for your shoulder before you decide.
Many shoulder patients pair treatment with physical therapy to rebuild strength and range of motion. Some also add exosome therapy.
Shoulder stem cell therapy is an injection-based option for patients who are not getting enough relief from conservative care and want to avoid or delay surgery. It does not replace surgery when a tear truly needs repair.
We review your shoulder history, imaging and past treatments, and how the pain affects your day.
If stem cell therapy fits, we explain where we will inject, whether to add exosomes and how many sessions to expect.
Treatment is done in our Redondo Beach clinic, with no surgery and no general anesthesia.
Most patients return to light activity quickly. We give you aftercare instructions and follow your progress.
Good candidates usually have rotator cuff tendon pain, a partial tear, tendinitis, bursitis or early shoulder arthritis that has not improved enough with rest and physical therapy. Athletes, people who work with their arms overhead and anyone hoping to avoid shoulder surgery often ask about it. A consultation is the only way to know whether shoulder stem cell therapy makes sense for you.
Dr. Paramdeep Bhasin, our Medical Director, earned an MD at Karnatak Medical College in 1995 and brings more than 20 years in anesthesiology and a background in pain management to every shoulder plan. Meet Dr. Bhasin.
Our shoulder patients in Los Angeles include swimmers, golfers, tennis and pickleball players, weightlifters and people whose jobs keep their arms overhead. We plan shoulder stem cell therapy around the activities you want to get back to and are clear about what it can and cannot do.
Bring any shoulder X-ray, ultrasound or MRI reports, a list of medications and a short history of what you have tried, such as physical therapy, cortisone injections or surgery. Tell us at booking if you take blood thinners or anti-inflammatory medication, because we may give you instructions before treatment.
After shoulder stem cell therapy, most patients go home the same day and return to light daily use of the arm soon after. We usually ask you to avoid heavy lifting and hard overhead training for a short period, then build back gradually, often with a physical therapist. Improvement in tendon pain tends to come over weeks to months, and we follow up to track your range of motion, strength and comfort.

For tendinopathy and partial tears, the aim is to calm inflammation and support the tendon’s own repair. Large or complete tears that have pulled back usually need a surgical opinion. We explain which applies to you.
Most patients feel pressure and some discomfort during the injection, and the shoulder may be sore for a few days afterward.
Usually not. Most patients return to light daily activity soon after treatment and follow our aftercare instructions for exercise.
It depends on your condition and goals. We explain the expected number of sessions at your consultation.
Results vary from person to person and can last from several months to years, depending on the condition and how you use the shoulder.
No. Allograft stem cell therapy is not an FDA-approved procedure and comes with no guarantees. We explain the evidence for your shoulder before you decide.
