Allogenic Stem Cell Therapy
Offered by Dr. Luis Martínez at Body Rejuvenation
A new Florida law now allows qualified physicians to use autologous and allogeneic adult stem cell products for very specific purposes — when treatments are related to:
At Body Rejuvenation, under the direction of Dr. Luis Martínez, M.D., MPH, we offer allogeneic stem cell therapy within these clearly defined therapeutic indications, using products sourced from FDA-registered, accredited facilities in Florida that meet the state’s new quality standards. (The Florida Senate)
What is Allogeneic stem cell therapy?
“Allogeneic” means the stem cells come from a carefully screened donor, not from your own body. In Florida, these adult or perinatal cells (for example, from umbilical cord or placental tissue after live birth) must be ethically sourced and cannot come from embryos or aborted fetal tissue. (FIDJ)
These cells are processed in cGMP-level, FDA-registered labs and must be certified or accredited by recognized organizations (such as AABB, AATB, NMDP, or WMDA) before a physician can use them under Florida’s stem cell statute. (The Florida Senate)
At Body Rejuvenation, allogeneic stem cell therapy is positioned as a regenerative option to support the body’s natural ability to repair tissue and modulate inflammation — only in the areas that Florida law allows.
How florida law frames this therapy
Under Florida Statute § 458.3245, licensed physicians (MDs and DOs) may perform stem cell therapies that have not yet been approved by the U.S. FDA, as long as: (The Florida Senate)
- The treatment is within the physician’s scope of practice, and
- Orthopedic conditions (e.g., selected joint, tendon, or musculoskeletal issues)
- Wound care / wound healing (e.g., select non-healing wounds under physician oversight)
- Pain management (e.g., certain chronic pain conditions where a regenerative approach may be appropriate)
The law also requires that products be obtained only from facilities that are FDA-registered and accredited for cellular therapies and that robust informed consent and specific written patient notices be provided, explicitly disclosing that these therapies are not yet FDA-approved and encouraging patients to speak with their primary care provider before proceeding. (Online Sunshine)
We fully adhere to these legal and ethical requirements.
Therapeutic Areas we may address
(within Florida’s authorized indications)
Allogeneic stem cell therapy may be considered as part of a comprehensive plan for musculoskeletal and joint-related problems where your physician determines it is appropriate and within the scope of Florida law, for example:
- Degenerative changes in joints
- Certain tendon or ligament injuries
- Post-traumatic joint issues
Orthopedic stem cell therapy at Body Rejuvenation is never “one size fits all” — it is integrated with imaging, functional assessment, and your overall health status.
For select, non-healing or complex wounds, Florida’s law allows physicians to explore stem cell therapy as an adjunct to standard wound care protocols. (The Florida Senate)
Examples may include:
- Chronic wounds that have not responded to conventional approaches
- Post-surgical wound complications where a regenerative strategy may be appropriate
Every case is evaluated individually; not all wounds are candidates for stem cell-based interventions.
In the context of pain management, Florida law allows non-FDA-approved stem cell therapies when they are used for qualifying conditions and within the physician’s scope of practice. (The Florida Senate)
This may apply to:
- Chronic musculoskeletal pain
- Certain spine-related pain issues
- Localized pain linked to orthopedic pathology
Our focus is on multi-modal pain management, where regenerative therapy may be one component alongside physical therapy, lifestyle interventions, and, when appropriate, other interventional procedures.

Safety, Ethics & Accredited Cell Sourcing
Body Rejuvenation follows the requirements of Florida’s stem cell statute and goes beyond them in several ways:
We use stem cell products obtained from FDA-registered facilities that are certified or accredited by recognized bodies such as AABB, AATB, NMDP, or WMDA, consistent with Florida law. (The Florida Senate)
Only ethically sourced adult or perinatal tissues (e.g., post-birth umbilical cord or placenta where permitted) are used. Florida explicitly prohibits the use of embryonic stem cells and cells derived from aborted fetuses. (WIRED)
- You will receive written disclosures that:
- Explain the nature and goals of the proposed treatment
- Clearly state that these therapies have not yet been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for these indications
- Explain the nature and goals of the proposed treatment
Outline known risks, potential benefits, and alternatives — including the option of not proceeding
Florida law encourages you to consult with your primary care provider, and we support that fully. We can provide documentation for you to share with your existing medical team. (The Florida Senate)
Your Journey at Body Rejuvenation
Step 1 – Blood Work & Comprehensive Evaluation
Your first step is advanced blood work and a consultation with Dr. Martínez.
During this visit, we will:
- Review your medical history, imaging, and medications
- Assess whether your orthopedic, wound, or pain condition fits the therapeutic purposes allowed under Florida law
Evaluate your overall health, cardiovascular risk, metabolic status, and other factors that may influence safety and outcomes
Step 2 – Personalized Treatment Plan
If you are a candidate for allogeneic stem cell therapy, Dr. Martínez will design a tailored plan that may include:
- Location, route, and dosing strategy for stem cell administration (within legal indications)
- Adjunctive therapies (physical therapy, peptides, PRP, shockwave, or others where appropriate)
- Lifestyle and recovery recommendations to support tissue repair
If stem cell therapy is not appropriate, we will discuss other evidence-based options instead.
Step 3 – Procedure Day
On the day of treatment:
- You’ll review the procedure again and sign final consent forms
- The stem cell product, obtained from an FDA-registered, accredited lab, is verified with batch data and viability metrics before use (The Florida Senate)
- Dr. Martínez performs the procedure in a controlled clinical environment, using imaging or guidance techniques when indicated
Most patients can return home the same day, with specific post-procedure instructions.
Step 4 – Follow-Up & Ongoing Monitoring
Regenerative therapies unfold over weeks to months. We’ll:
- Schedule follow-up visits to assess progress
- Monitor pain, function, and wound healing parameters as appropriate
Adjust your overall plan (rehab, supplements, peptides, etc.) based on response
Ready to Explore Allogeneic Stem Cell Therapy?
If you’re dealing with an orthopedic issue, a hard-to-heal wound, or a chronic pain condition — and you’re exploring regenerative options now available under Florida law — the first step is a thorough evaluation.

Important Considerations & FAQs
For orthopedic, wound-healing, and pain-management indications, these specific allogeneic stem cell uses are authorized by Florida law but are not currently FDA-approved. That’s why state law mandates clear notices and informed consent. (The Florida Senate)
No. Eligibility depends on your diagnosis, overall health, risk profile, and whether your condition falls under the orthopedics, wound care, or pain management categories defined by Florida law.
Not under this Florida statute. Body Rejuvenation’s allogeneic stem cell therapies under this framework are limited to the therapeutic purposes specified by law: orthopedics, wound care, and pain management. (The Florida Senate)
Many patients come to us in addition to their existing specialists. We encourage coordination and are happy to share records and communicate with your other physicians.
No. This page is for educational and marketing purposes only and does not replace individualized medical advice. A one-on-one consultation is required to determine if allogeneic stem cell therapy is appropriate for you.
