There is a moment many patients reach where conventional medicine has done what it can. The pain is still there. The inflammation keeps coming back. The options on the table are more medications, more management, or surgery. And none of them feel right.
Stem cell therapy offers a different path.
At Haven Medspa, Dr. Virpal Thiara offers physician-supervised stem cell therapy using high-quality allogeneic biologics, meaning the stem cells come from a carefully screened external source, not from your own body. This approach allows us to work with young, potent stem cells that carry significant regenerative potential, delivered with the precision and oversight of a board-certified physician.
Dr. Thiara is an affiliated provider with R3 Stem Cell, one of the leading regenerative medicine networks in the country. That affiliation means our protocols are grounded in clinical standards that go well beyond what most medical spas or wellness clinics offer.
Stem cells are the body’s raw material. They are undifferentiated cells with the ability to develop into specialized cell types and to signal surrounding tissue to repair and regenerate. When introduced into a site of damage or dysfunction, stem cells can help reduce inflammation, support the formation of new tissue, and modulate immune responses that may be driving chronic conditions.
The stem cells we use at Haven Medspa are allogeneic, sourced from umbilical cord tissue donated after healthy births. This tissue is rich in mesenchymal stem cells, growth factors, and anti-inflammatory compounds. Because these cells come from a young, healthy source, they tend to carry more regenerative activity than cells harvested from an older patient’s own body.
Every product we use goes through rigorous testing and quality screening before it reaches our clinic. Dr. Thiara reviews each patient’s health profile individually to determine the right approach, the right dosing, and the right delivery method for their specific situation.
Stem cell therapy is not a single-condition treatment. It is a regenerative tool that supports the body across a wide range of conditions.
If your condition is not listed here, that does not mean stem cell therapy cannot help. Schedule a consultation and Dr. Thiara will give you an honest assessment.
Dr. Thiara uses stem cell protocols to address:
Knee arthritis and tendonitis. Hip arthritis. Shoulder and elbow arthritis. Rotator cuff injuries. Sacroiliac joint pain. Plantar fasciitis. Achilles tears and ankle injuries. Carpal tunnel syndrome.
Rheumatoid arthritis. Autoimmune diseases. Lyme disease. CRPS/RSD. Interstitial cystitis. Lichen sclerosis.
Peripheral and diabetic neuropathy. Multiple sclerosis. Parkinson’s disease. Alzheimer’s. Stroke recovery. Migraines and tension headaches. . Postherpetic neuralgia.
Cellular regeneration and longevity. Skin rejuvenation. Hair restoration. Energy and vitality.
Muscle recovery. Immune system support. Hormonal balance support. Cognitive function.
Not all stem cell products are created equal. At Haven Medspa, we work primarily with two of the most potent and well-researched allogeneic sources available.
Together, these two sources give Dr. Thiara a powerful and versatile biological toolkit. Depending on your condition and goals, she may recommend one, the other, or a combination approach.
Wharton’s Jelly is the connective tissue found inside the umbilical cord. It is extraordinarily rich in mesenchymal stem cells, cells that are particularly effective at reducing inflammation, signaling tissue repair, and supporting immune modulation. Because these cells come from umbilical cord tissue collected at birth, they are young, highly active, and ethically sourced. They carry minimal risk of rejection.
Cord blood, the blood found in the umbilical cord after birth, contains a concentrated supply of hematopoietic stem cells alongside growth factors and regenerative compounds. Cord blood stem cells have been used in clinical medicine for decades and bring a well-established track record of safety and efficacy.
Stem cell therapy at Haven Medspa is not a walk-in procedure. It begins with a thorough consultation.
Dr. Thiara will review your health history, current symptoms, imaging and lab results if available, and prior treatment history. She will explain what stem cell therapy can and cannot realistically offer for your situation. If you are a good candidate, she will outline a protocol, including the type of cells, delivery method, number of sessions, and what to monitor afterward.
The treatment itself is typically administered via injection, targeted to the area of concern. Most patients tolerate it well. There is no general anesthesia, no hospital stay, and most people return to normal activity quickly.
Stem cell therapy is not a one-appointment-and-done solution for every patient. Some people notice meaningful improvement within weeks. Others see gradual change over several months as the regenerative process unfolds. Dr. Thiara monitors your progress and adjusts the approach based on how your body responds.
Stem cell therapy works best for patients who are informed, realistic, and committed to the process. It is not a replacement for surgery in every case, but for many patients, it represents a genuine opportunity to improve function, reduce pain, and potentially avoid a procedure they were dreading.
The best candidates tend to be people who have tried conservative options without satisfactory results, who want to explore a regenerative approach before committing to surgery, or who are looking to support their body’s long-term health and resilience.
If you are not sure whether you qualify, the answer is simple: come in for a consultation. Dr. Thiara will tell you honestly whether stem cell therapy makes sense for your situation – and if it does not, she will tell you that too.
Haven Medspa’s stem cell therapy program is available at our Yuba City, Rocklin, and Lincoln locations. We serve patients from across the greater Sacramento area, including Roseville, Folsom, Auburn, Granite Bay, and surrounding communities.
We've got answers!
Stem cell therapy introduces regenerative cells into the body to reduce inflammation, support tissue repair, and signal the body’s own healing processes. At Haven Medspa, we use allogeneic stem cells sourced from umbilical cord tissue, Wharton’s Jelly and cord blood, because these young, healthy cells carry significant regenerative activity. Dr. Thiara determines the right protocol for each patient individually.
Wharton’s Jelly stem cells are mesenchymal stem cells harvested from umbilical cord connective tissue. They are particularly effective for reducing inflammation and supporting musculoskeletal and immune system function. Cord blood stem cells come from the blood inside the umbilical cord and include hematopoietic stem cells with a long track record in clinical medicine. Both are ethically sourced, rigorously tested, and carry minimal rejection risk. Dr. Thiara will recommend the right option based on your condition.
Stem cell therapy is FDA regulated, not FDA approved for most conditions. Haven Medspa uses only biologics that comply with FDA regulations and meet rigorous safety and testing standards. Dr. Thiara will walk you through the current regulatory landscape and what it means for your specific treatment during your consultation.
This depends on your condition, its severity, and how your body responds. Some patients see meaningful improvement after a single session. Others benefit from a series of treatments spanned over several months. Dr. Thiara will give you a realistic protocol outline during your consultation, not a generic answer designed to sell you more sessions.
For some patients, yes. Stem cell therapy is not a surgical alternative in every case, but many patients with joint conditions,, rotator cuff injuries, and similar issues have been able to improve function and reduce pain significantly enough to delay or avoid surgery altogether. Whether this is realistic for your specific situation is something Dr. Thiara will assess during your consultation.

Dr. Thiara is knowledgeable and very accommodating to her clients.
What a nice environment combined with an excellent quality appointment. The staff and Dr. go above and beyond to meet your goal. I will visit again.
I’m so glad to have found a LOCAL Med Spa that carries top notch products I normally have to order online and delivers on superb service. Highly recommend!
Dr. Thiara is one of the most sweetest and understanding doctors I know! I went to her in 2022 after my sister recommended her to me and safe to say it was the best decision I ever made. The doctor is very attentive and willing to listen to all your concerns. I was dealing with painful hormonal acne and was prescribed hormonal medications, retinol, and skin care products catered to my skin type all in one visit.
Loved my experience – Dr. Thiara is wonderful! She listens to what you want and does not push anything extra or tries to sell you on “more” which I really appreciated. I wanted a very minimal natural look and it’s exactly what I feel like I got. She is also VERY responsive and called me herself for reassurance on something I was not sure about. Would recommend 100 percent.
“Haven Med Spa is an awesome facility offering a wide variety of services. Staff and Dr. are very personable and knowledgeable providing a high level of comfort. I have been coming to Haven for various services for approximately 8 months and would without a doubt recommend. Very satisfied.”
