MUSE Stem Cell Therapy in Mexico
A breakthrough in natural regenerative medicine—without the celebrity price tag

In 2010, Dr. Mari Dezawa’s research team in Japan identified a rare type of mesenchymal stem cell that could survive in harsh conditions. Years of research and clinical trials followed, and the term "MUSE" was coined to distinguish these unique cells from the already-impressive regular mesenchymal stem cells that are commonly known. In 2024, our clinic in Puerto Vallarta began providing this novel therapy—MUSE Stem Cells®. In August 2025, Kim Kardashian raved about this therapy on social media. And here you are now, about to learn about one of the most exciting breakthroughs in modern regenerative medicine: MUSE Stem Cell Therapy available at Holistic Bio Spa® clinic!

Stress Resilience

Direct Regeneration

Lasting Results

What Exactly Are MUSE Cells?

MUSE Stem Cells® are a rare type of pluripotent mesenchymal stem cells that can survive and regenerate the body’s tissues under extreme stress—like low oxygen, inflammation, and poor circulation. Unlike regular mesenchymal stem cells, which often cannot survive or function in stressed or damaged environments, MUSE cells are pluripotent and can transform into nearly any type of cell the body needs for healing. This includes—but is not limited to—nerve and brain cells, muscle, bone, cartilage, and connective tissue, as well as lung, liver, and pancreas cells.

With so many people searching for the best stem cell therapy (including Kim Kardashian who recently raved about this treatment on social media) it’s important to do your due diligence and learn what MUSE cells are, where they come from, the latest findings of clinical trials, and where you can get this treatment safely. That’s what we’ll consider in this article.

MUSE stands for multilineage-differentiating stress-enduring cells. That’s a mouthful, but it simply means this: MUSE cells are your body’s most resilient repair team. Compared to regular MSCs, MUSE cells are small, but mighty and often more efficient. For holistic regenerative medical treatments, MUSE cells are safely extracted from healthy pre-screened donated tissues, purified, and carefully expanded in controlled laboratory conditions. This makes it possible to provide patients with a therapeutic dose much stronger than what the body could produce on its own.

For people with chronic illness, old injuries, or degenerative conditions, this makes all the difference. Where regular stem cells might slow down or die off, MUSE Stem Cells® keep going—repairing, rebuilding, and delivering real recovery.

Where Do MUSE Cells Come From?

MUSE cells were first discovered in Wharton’s jelly, the soft tissue inside the umbilical cord, and they also exist naturally in adipose tissue. These rare cells are often referred to as Dezawa MUSE Cells® as they were first discovered in 2010 by Dr. Mari Dezawa, a Japanese scientist at the Tohoku University Graduate School of Medicine. MUSE Stem Cells® remain “dormant” until the body experiences stress, injury, or disease. When that happens, MUSE cells sense the damage, activate, travel to the damaged area, and begin repairing it by turning into the exact type of cell that’s needed.

For holistic regenerative medical treatments, MUSE cells are safely extracted from healthy pre-screened donated tissues, purified, and carefully expanded in controlled laboratory conditions. This makes it possible to provide patients with a therapeutic dose much stronger than what the body could produce on its own. Since these cells repair more efficiently, they often require fewer treatments, smaller doses, less money.

MUSE Stem Cells® are pluripotent—meaning that these cells can become virtually any type of cell your body needs to regenerate! Think of what it means for MUSE Stem Cells® to be able to become many different types of cells:

  • Ectoderm: They can turn into nerve and brain cells, helping with stroke, Parkinson’s, or multiple sclerosis.
  • Mesoderm: They can rebuild muscle, bone, cartilage, and connective tissue, making them powerful for heart repair or orthopedic injuries.
  • Endoderm: They can even regenerate tissues in organs like the lungs, liver, and pancreas, offering hope for people with chronic diseases.

Most importantly, MUSE Stem Cells® are:

  • Non-embryonic: They do not come from embryos—we never harm unborn babies at our clinic.
  • Non-tumorigenic: They do not cause unwanted growths or tumors.
  • Clinically safe: They have been proven safe in extensive research and early clinical trials.
  • Very resilient: They survive where other stem cells can’t—making them able to repair faster even in areas with poor blood flow, low oxygen, or chronic inflammation.

 

This combination of being both natural and safe is what makes Dezawa MUSE Cells® one of the most trusted and exciting options for regenerative medicine today.

When analyzing the research in the table above, it is important for a patient to find their own independent conclusions regarding their healthcare. It’s important to emphasize that because each person’s condition is unique, patients and results will vary regardless of the chosen method or type of stem cell. This is why we perform extensive lab tests and medical examinations before prescribing stem cells.

Because many family physicians and doctors are still undereducated when it comes to the topic of stem cells, our doctors go the extra mile to educate patients and answer any questions. It’s unrealistic to think that all doctors will have the same level of expertise in all areas. Therefore, in order to help you make an educated decision, our medical professionals have done their best to compile this extensive research supporting the efficacy of these stem cell treatments.

What Conditions Can Be Treated with MUSE Cells?

Patients come to Holistic Bio Spa in Puerto Vallarta from around the world because MUSE stem cell treatment offers real potential for conditions that traditional medicine has struggled to heal. Unlike conventional therapies that may only manage symptoms, MUSE stem cells go deeper—helping to repair, regenerate, and restore tissue at the source of the problem.

  • Neurological Diseases

    MUSE cells are especially promising for brain and nerve repair because of their ability to survive in low-oxygen, high-stress environments—exactly what you see after a stroke or in chronic neurological illness. These cells can transform into neurons and glial cells, helping to restore connections in the nervous system. Some examples: 

    • Stroke recovery: Improved motor function and reduced disability.
    • Multiple sclerosis: Reduction of nerve damage and immune regulation.
    • Spinal cord injuries: Repair of nerve pathways and restoration of mobility.
    • Parkinson’s disease: Support for dopamine-producing cells to improve movement and quality of life.
  • Cardiovascular Disorders

    After a heart attack or years of poor circulation, tissues often remain starved of oxygen. Standard stem cells struggle here—but MUSE cells can thrive and rebuild even in this “hostile” environment. Some examples:

    • Heart attacks: Regeneration of damaged heart muscle.
    • Chronic ischemia (poor circulation): Restoration of blood flow by forming new vessels and strengthening existing ones.
    • Cardiomyopathy: Support for heart muscle function and long-term repair.
  • Autoimmune Disorders

    Autoimmune diseases occur when the body mistakenly attacks itself. MUSE stem cells bring balance by calming overactive immune responses while also repairing damaged tissues. Here are some examples:

    • Lupus: Reduction of inflammation and tissue damage.
    • Rheumatoid arthritis: Repair of joint tissues and decreased autoimmune flare-ups.
    • Crohn’s disease & ulcerative colitis: Healing of the intestinal lining and improved quality of life.
  • Orthopedic Conditions

    Athletes, active adults, and those suffering from age-related wear and tear often look to MUSE therapy to restore mobility and reduce pain. Unlike injections that only reduce inflammation, MUSE cells help rebuild what’s broken.

    • Cartilage repair: Support for worn joints, like knees and hips.
    • Ligament and tendon healing: Faster recovery after sports injuries.
    • Bone repair: Acceleration of fracture healing and strengthening.
  • Anti-aging & Aesthetics

    Beyond internal diseases, MUSE cells also support external healing and anti-aging. Their ability to turn into multiple tissue types makes them effective for both medical and aesthetic applications to promote skin rejuvenation, collagen support, and overall tissue vitality.

  • Chronic Degenerative Diseases

    For conditions that slowly worsen over time, long-term cellular repair is essential. MUSE cells provide sustainable regeneration, helping patients maintain their independence and vitality.

    • Lyme disease: Potential to restore neuronal connections and improve cognitive function.
    • COPD (chronic lung disease): Repair of lung tissue and improved breathing.
    • Diabetes-related complications: Restoration of blood vessels and tissues affected by years of poor circulation.

And many more! Whatever your condition, our doctors can help you regain your life and vitality.

How Do MUSE Cells Perform in Regenerative Medicine Applications?

Most stem cell clinics use mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). While MSCs can provide healing, they often struggle in hostile environments caused by chronic disease. MUSE cells don’t just signal healing—they become the healing. Here’s how MUSE cells are different:

MUSE Survival in Stressful Conditions Icon
Survival in Stressful Conditions

Unlike regular mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that often die off when placed in a damaged or inflamed environment, MUSE cells thrive even when oxygen, blood flow, or nutrients are low. This is exactly the kind of environment found in long-term injuries, heart disease, strokes, or chronic illnesses.

Think of it this way: regular MSCs are like plants that only grow in fertile soil with perfect sunlight. MUSE cells are like desert plants—they keep growing even in harsh conditions, making them reliable where healing is most needed.

Direct Repair Ability MUSE Icon
Direct Repair Ability

Whether you tore your shoulder working out or you have extensive damage caused by an autoimmune disorder, MUSE cells directly integrate into the injured area and transform into the exact type of cell the body needs—nerve cells for the brain, muscle cells, skin cells for wounds, etc.

Imagine your body as a house with damaged walls. MUSE cells are the skilled builders that arrive with the right tools and materials to rebuild the walls of your house and they work day and night, even when it’s cold and raining.

MUSE Cells Long-Term Effectiveness ICON
Long-Term Effectiveness

Because of their resilience, MUSE stem cells don’t just provide short-term relief—they offer sustainable, lasting repair. For patients with degenerative conditions, this long-term activity means a better chance at not only managing symptoms but also restoring function and quality of life over time.

Think of it as the difference between a quick patch-up job and a full, long-lasting renovation. MUSE cells create lasting foundations for healing.

At Holistic Bio Spa® clinic in Puerto Vallarta, we meet people every day who are traveling from all over the world to get real lasting results, not just quick fixes. Many of our patients have tried traditional treatments back home and still struggle with pain, fatigue, or illness—everything changed once they tried MUSE Stem Cells®. That’s why we’re so passionate about offering this exciting breakthrough in modern regenerative medicine: MUSE stem cell therapy!

How Is Stem Cell Therapy Performed at Holistic Bio Spa?

Holistic Bio Spa’s team of doctors and clinicians combine their skills and experience in all disciplines of medicine. For what purpose? To make sure your body is in optimal condition to receive and adequately use the stem cells. This is how we do it:
Prepare the soil

Every good farmer knows that for something to grow, you need the right type of seeds and healthy soil.

So, our doctors conduct extensive laboratory blood tests for over 64 markers to determine which type of stem cells will work best for your goals and health condition. We then recommend various detoxing and metabolic-balancing treatments to maximize your investment. For example: cleaning your blood plasma by removing cellular waste and heavy metals, balancing your hormones, and a clinically personalized nutritional program. This preparation phase is a crucial factor because if the stem cells do not have the right building blocks and environment to create new healthy tissue, your results will be suboptimal.

Plant the seeds

Time to plant the seeds! Far better than options available in the USA, our doctors can administer 100% safe and ethical cellular therapies approved by the Federal Health Ministry such as exosomes, PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma), Pluripotent Multilineage-Differentiating Stress-Enduring (MUSE) Stem Cells,  Pluripotent Adult Stem Cells (PASCs), Natural Killer Cells, and Mesenchymal Stem Cells (from the placenta and umbilical cord) combined with holistic medical treatments to prompt your body to regenerate cells and tissues at a faster rate.

The stem cells will turn into healthy new cells, thus regenerating affected regions for several months. But it doesn’t have to stop there!

Fertilized growth
Seeds grow best when given proper nutrients and care, and the same goes for stem cell therapy! Our doctors recommend complementary treatments like Hyperbaric Chamber sessions, Red Light Therapy, PEMF, Cryogenic Therapy, intravenous medical-grade therapies with essential vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, peptides, and trace minerals, along with NAD therapy and ozone therapies, high-quality nutritional supplements, joint formulas, and FMT. These therapies help your body maintain a balanced, healthy environment, allowing stem cells to effectively support tissue repair and regeneration. Each injection contains millions of stem cells that work to renew your body over a period of 6 months to 2 years. We’re dedicated to ongoing support and follow-up care to monitor your progress and achieve the best possible outcomes.

Nobody comes close to our holistic protocol for regenerative medicine with stem cells.

We understand that, while worthwhile, this is a big investment in your health. That’s why (unlike others) we don’t just inject stem cells in you and walk away hoping for the best. Our proprietary procedure for administering stem cells makes sure you get the best results possible. Watch how:

Frequently Asked Questions about MUSE Cells

Learn some of the most frequently asked questions about MUSE Cells
  • Where are MUSE cells sourced from?

    MUSE cells were first discovered in the umbilical cord (Wharton’s jelly) and in adipose tissue. For medical treatments, they are safely collected from donated tissues and carefully expanded in controlled clinical settings, providing patients with a therapeutic dose much higher than the body could produce on its own.

    IMPORTANT: At our clinic, we only use 100% ethically-sourced MUSE stem cells from the umbilical cord and adipose tissue — NEVER endangering babies or their mothers.

  • Are MUSE cells safe?

    Yes. MUSE stem cells are non-embryonic, non-tumorigenic, and have been proven safe in research and early clinical trials. Because they already exist naturally in the human body, the risk of complications is very low. This strong safety profile is one reason why many patients consider them the best stem cell therapy option in Mexico.

  • How long before I notice results?

    Many patients report improvements within weeks, while others notice gradual recovery over months. Each case is unique, depending on the severity of the condition and overall health.

  • Why do people go to Mexico for stem cell treatments?

    In the U.S. and Canada, regulations limit access to advanced stem cell options like MUSE therapy. Patients are often restricted to low-dose or less effective alternatives. Here in Mexico, under ethical medical standards, we can provide treatments with expanded stem cells, giving patients access to higher-quality, higher-dose treatments that simply aren’t available back home.

  • Why choose Holistic Bio Spa in Puerto Vallarta?

    Patients prefer our clinic because we are able to prove the source and viability of the stem cells they will be receiving. We work with the only laboratory that is federally licensed to provide MUSE Stem Cells® (also known as Dezawa MUSE Cells®) in the entire country. Each patient receives a sealed vial and a certificate from the laboratory to verify the authenticity and viability of the stem cells prior to administering them.

    Our doctors have been helping international patients for over 40 years, combining advanced regenerative medicine with compassionate, personalized care in a safe and supportive environment. At our clinic, patients not only receive world-class treatments but also enjoy Puerto Vallarta’s natural beauty as part of their healing journey. We’ve completed thousands of stem cell procedures, and the good results have earned us a good name in the international medical tourism industry.

  • How is MUSE stem cell therapy different from standard stem cell therapy in Mexico?

    Standard therapies rely mostly on mesenchymal cells. Unlike regular mesenchymal stem cells, which often cannot survive or function in stressed or damaged environments, MUSE stem cells are pluripotent and are more adaptive, more resistant, and capable of direct tissue repair.

    They can transform into nearly any type of cell the body needs for healing. This includes—but is not limited to—nerve and brain cells, muscle, bone, cartilage, and connective tissue, as well as lung, liver, and pancreas cells. That’s why many patients seeking the best stem cell therapy in Mexico are turning to MUSE treatment in Holistic Bio Spa.

  • What conditions are being studied with MUSE cells?

    Clinical studies and patient experiences show that MUSE cells may help with a wide range of conditions, including:

    • Neurological diseases like stroke, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, and spinal cord injury.
    • Cardiac conditions such as heart attack recovery and poor circulation.
    • Autoimmune diseases like lupus, Crohn’s disease, and rheumatoid arthritis.
    • Orthopedic injuries including cartilage, tendon, and bone repair.
    • Chronic degenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s, COPD, and diabetes complications.
    • Skin and tissue regeneration for burns, wounds, and anti-aging therapies.
  • Do MUSE cells require genetic manipulation?

    No. MUSE cells do not need to be genetically altered or reprogrammed. They are naturally pluripotent-like, meaning they can become multiple cell types safely without lab modification.
