FAQs

Answers before you book.

Clear planning questions for local Makati patients and international travelers comparing regenerative wellness, NAD+ IV therapy, NMN, and labs.

What is stem cell therapy?

Stem cell therapy is a regenerative medicine category that may involve cells or cell-derived products. Patients should treat it as a physician-reviewed medical decision, not a guaranteed cure or one-size-fits-all wellness package.

Where can I get stem cell therapy in Manila?

StemCell Manila provides regenerative wellness consultations at Centuria Medical Makati. International and local patients should start with medical history, goals, screening questions, and clinician review before treatment timing is finalized.

What is NAD+ IV therapy?

NAD+ is a coenzyme involved in cellular metabolism. NAD+ IV therapy is discussed in wellness settings for cellular energy and recovery support, but dose, tolerance, medical history, medications, and supervision matter.

What is NMN therapy?

NMN, or nicotinamide mononucleotide, is a precursor involved in the body's NAD+ pathway. Patients should ask how NMN compares with NAD+ IV therapy, whether labs are useful, and whether it fits their health history.

Is NAD+ IV therapy safe?

NAD+ IV therapy should be administered with screening and medical supervision. Individual suitability depends on medical history, medications, hydration, infusion tolerance, and treatment goals.

Do you serve international patients?

Yes. International patients can begin planning by WhatsApp before traveling to Makati for consultation, laboratory testing, and selected regenerative wellness services. Travel plans should include enough time for screening, review, rest, and follow-up.

How do I book an appointment?

Appointments may be requested through the website, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, or direct clinic contact channels. A requested time is not a confirmed treatment appointment until the clinic reviews suitability and availability.

What should I ask before choosing a stem cell clinic in the Philippines?

Ask who reviews your case, what medical history is required, which claims the clinic will not make, what screening is needed, what aftercare is provided, and how follow-up works after you return home.

Are exosomes the same as stem cell therapy?

No. Exosomes are cell-derived signaling particles and are usually discussed separately from cell-based therapies. Patients should ask what product category is being discussed, what evidence applies, and what risks or uncertainties remain.

Why might blood tests be recommended before IV therapy or regenerative wellness planning?

Blood tests can give the clinician more context about vitamin status, metabolic health, hormones, inflammation, and other baseline markers. Lab results support consultation; they do not replace diagnosis or physician judgment.

What should international patients send before traveling to Manila?

Send the service you want to discuss, your goal, home country, timezone, preferred dates, relevant medical history, medications, allergies, recent labs, and whether you are already in Manila or still planning flights.

Can FAQ schema or AI search visibility guarantee that ChatGPT will cite StemCell Manila?

No. Schema and clean FAQs help search systems understand content, but no website can force AI tools to cite it. The best approach is crawlable pages, clear authorship, visible sources, medically careful claims, and useful answers that match real patient questions.

What stem cell therapy options are available?

The clinic welcomes inquiries about stem cell and exosome categories. The exact source, formulation, route, dose, laboratory, regulatory basis, and availability should be confirmed for the option discussed in consultation.

Can international patients plan stem cell therapy before arriving?

Yes. International patients can begin remotely, discuss the service that interests them, share relevant health information, and coordinate possible Manila dates with the clinic.

Are treatment and results guaranteed?

No. Suitability and possible outcomes depend on the person, condition, exact product or formulation, route, and evidence. The clinic must complete the appropriate assessment first.

Are exosomes the same as stem cell therapy?

No. Exosomes are cell-derived signaling particles and are usually discussed separately from cell-based therapies. The right category depends on the patient goal and clinical review.

Can exosome therapy be guaranteed to work?

No. Exosome-related claims should stay conservative. Suitability, risks, evidence limits, and alternatives require physician review.

What should I ask before traveling for exosome therapy?

Ask about source, handling, protocol, evidence for your goal, consent, aftercare, adverse-event planning, and whether labs or records should be reviewed first.

Is fat-rich stem cell therapy booked automatically?

No. Fat-rich or adipose-derived therapy should only be planned after physician assessment, medical history review, and suitability screening.

Can international patients ask about adipose-derived therapy before travel?

Yes. WhatsApp planning can organize questions, dates, and possible screening needs before fixed flights are booked.

Does the consultation guarantee treatment?

No. Consultation is used to determine whether the option is appropriate and what timing, testing, or alternatives should be discussed.

How long does NAD+ IV therapy take?

Session duration depends on the exact formulation, dose, infusion rate, monitoring, and patient tolerance. Ask the clinic for the current expected length of the option you are considering.

What is the difference between NMN and NAD+?

NAD+ is the active coenzyme used by cells for energy production, while NMN is a precursor that supports the body's natural NAD+ production pathway.

Do you offer home service IV therapy?

Selected IV services may be available at a home or hotel. Ask the clinic which infusions and locations currently qualify, along with current fees and availability.

Can NAD+ and Myers be combined?

Combination planning depends on screening, goals, dose, tolerability, and clinician guidance. It should not be treated as a one-size-fits-all drip.

Is this useful after international travel?

Many travelers ask about IV support after long flights, but timing should be discussed with the clinic, especially if dehydration, medications, or medical conditions are involved.

How long should I reserve for the appointment?

Session length depends on protocol and patient tolerance. NAD+ infusions may take longer than standard vitamin or hydration drips.

What is the difference between NMN and NAD+?

NMN is a precursor involved in the body's NAD+ pathway, while NAD+ is the coenzyme itself. Which option fits depends on the patient context.

Can NMN be part of an international patient visit?

Yes. International patients can ask about timing, visit length, and whether NMN should be paired with consultation or labs.

Is NMN appropriate for everyone?

No. Suitability depends on medical history, medications, goals, and clinician assessment.

Is home service available for every IV drip?

No. Home service is for appropriate IV wellness requests after address review and screening. Some symptoms, health history, protocols, or timing issues may be better handled in the Makati clinic.

Can hotel guests request IV home service?

Yes. Send the hotel or serviced residence name, room or tower details, front-desk instructions, preferred time, and health context so the team can guide the right clinic, home, or hotel IV path.

Do I still need medical screening?

Yes. The convenience of home service does not remove intake, contraindication checks, medication and allergy review, prior IV reaction history, or appropriate clinical guidance.

What blood tests are offered?

Preventive testing may include vitamin levels, hormone panels, metabolic markers, cardiovascular screening, inflammatory markers, and wellness blood work.

Can blood work guide IV therapy?

Yes. Lab results help personalize wellness planning and can inform the most appropriate IV, peptide, or hormone optimization discussion.

Should travelers do labs before treatment?

Many international patients benefit from scheduling labs early in the visit so results can inform the rest of the treatment plan.
