Exosome Therapy: What Is It and How Does It Work?

As I’ve mentioned in a previous post, ICBR will be offering the option of exosome therapy in 2020. We are so excited about adding this truly beneficial service to our repertoire! The coming year has so much in store for our clinic, and we feel so grateful to you for making what we do possible.

Curious about what this therapy is and how it can help you stay young at heart (and in body)? Keep reading for a brief overview of this exciting new service from ICBR.

What Are Exosomes?

An exosome is an extracellular vesicle, which is just a fancy way of saying it is a tiny container that can move in and out of a cell. Over a decade ago, scientists thought that exosomes were nothing more than a way for the cells to get rid of waste, microscopic little garbage trucks that take out the trash as it piles up. More recently, however, the scientific community has recognized that they are more than that. When it was discovered that cells sent them out when there was no waste, they knew that something was up. Eventually, they discovered that exosomes did more than take out the garbage—they allowed cells to communicate with one another.

As scientists continue to research these extracellular vesicles, it is clear that when a cell sends them out, it does it for a specific purpose. Sometimes, the purpose is to cause or suppress inflammation. Other times, exosomes support immune function.

How Can Exosome Therapy Benefit You?

Current studies suggest that exosomes can be beneficial for the overall rejuvenation of the body. What this means is that with this type of therapy, you could heal from an injury or recover from an illness more quickly. As our bodies age, this is an especially hopeful revelation because the more we age, the less our bodies are able to fight off disease and heal properly.

The uses of exosomes are not purely medical, though. When the body is healthy, it starts to look and feel better. That’s why many people use exosomes to rejuvenate their skin, regrow hair, and strengthen their joints.
