Vittilabs Wharton’s Jelly (WJ) Therapy

Natural Support for Cushioning & Joint Comfort

Wharton’s Jelly (WJ) is a next-generation allograft biologic derived from the umbilical cord matrix and processed under strict FDA-regulated tissue bank standards.

It contains naturally occurring structural proteins, hyaluronic components, cytokines, and extracellular matrix elements that may help support joint lubrication, tissue cushioning, and a healthy microenvironment for healing.

At Sikora Integrative Medicine, we offer Vittilabs Wharton’s Jelly as part of our regenerative medicine program for patients seeking gentle, non-surgical support for chronic joint pain, degenerative changes, and soft-tissue injuries. This therapy is ideal for individuals looking for an advanced biologic option when conservative treatments have not provided lasting improvement.

Interested in whether Wharton’s Jelly could support your recovery?

What’s Inside Wharton’s Jelly?

Wharton’s Jelly naturally contains:

  • Hyaluronic components that support lubrication
  • Structural proteins that help with cushioning
  • Cytokines and growth-supporting molecules
  • Extracellular matrix scaffolding
  • Anti-inflammatory elements
  • Collagen-rich supportive materials

Together, these components work to create a biologically supportive environment within joints or soft-tissue areas.

Key Benefits of Wharton’s Jelly Therapy

Wharton’s Jelly contains a rich combination of biological components that may contribute to improved comfort and mobility.

Benefits may include:

  • Enhanced joint cushioning and lubrication
  • Support for soft-tissue and cartilage health
  • Reduction in inflammation

Vittilabs products are processed using advanced quality controls, ensuring a high level of safety and consistency.

Conditions Commonly Treated with Vittilabs Wharton’s Jelly Therapy

Wharton’s Jelly may be considered for:

Knee, hip, or shoulder osteoarthritis

May help support joint comfort and mobility by providing cushioning elements to alleviate stiffness and joint irritation.

Chronic joint pain

Offers supportive biologic components that may help ease ongoing discomfort and promote soft-tissue balance.

Degenerative joint changes

May assist with lubrication and tissue support in areas affected by wear and reduced joint quality.

Ligament or soft-tissue irritation

 Provides biologic factors that may help calm irritation and support natural recovery processes.

Overuse injuries

May offer supportive proteins that help tissues affected by repetitive strain feel more stable and comfortable.

Reduced joint cushioning or lubrication

Helps introduce hydrating matrix components that may enhance joint glide and ease of movement.

Your provider will determine whether this approach is suitable based on your medical history and imaging results.

What to Expect During the Treatment

Most Wharton’s Jelly treatments take 30–45 minutes and are performed in our Vero Beach office.

Step-by-step:

1

Preparation

 Your provider completes a detailed evaluation, reviews imaging, and determines whether Wharton’s Jelly is appropriate for your condition.

2

Injection

The WJ allograft is injected directly into the targeted joint or soft-tissue structure under ultrasound or fluoroscopic guidance to ensure accuracy and comfort.

3

Recovery

Mild soreness may occur for one to two days following the injection. Most patients resume regular daily activity shortly after treatment.

4

Treatment Plan

While some patients benefit from a single injection, others may require additional sessions depending on their goals and the condition being treated.

When to Expect Results

Improvement develops gradually as the biologic material integrates into the targeted area.

Typical timelines may include:

  • Early improvements: 2–4 weeks
  • More noticeable changes: 6–12 weeks
  • Continued progress: up to 3–6 months

Lifestyle, age, severity of degeneration, and activity level may influence response. We also offer additional biologic options that complement Vittilabs WJ and support a range of regenerative needs.
