Respiratory
Severe Asthma
Asthma that stays hard to control even on high-dose standard treatment.
What is Severe Asthma?
Severe asthma is a different situation from asthma that's simply not quite managed — it's asthma that stays difficult to control despite high-dose inhaled treatment and often oral steroids or biologics too. Flare-ups can be frequent and frightening, sometimes needing emergency care, and many people describe living with a low background hum of anxiety about the next one. It affects a smaller group than general asthma but with real day-to-day impact.
How regenerative medicine supports it
We work closely with your respiratory specialist, reviewing your current biologic or steroid regimen and recent exacerbation history before considering anything additional. Therapy is aimed at calming underlying airway inflammation as a genuine adjunct, tracked through spirometry, symptom control scores, and exacerbation frequency. We're clear that severe asthma needs specialist-led management, often including biologic therapy, and we decline to work with anyone whose asthma is currently unstable or between emergency visits.
Treatments we would consider
Options discussed for this condition
Listed for orientation only. What is actually prescribed depends on your records.
- MSC TherapyMedical team-guided stem cell therapy using mesenchymal cells for joint, immune and whole-body recovery.
- Exosome TherapySignalling-rich exosome protocols, often combined with stem cell therapy, supporting tissue repair, recovery and aesthetics.
- NK & NKT Cell ImmunotherapyNatural killer and NKT cell programs to support immune surveillance, frequently used alongside stem cell protocols.
- Curcumin IV TherapyIntravenous curcumin for anti-inflammatory and antioxidant support.
If the evidence for treating severe asthma this way is thin, we will tell you before you book — and the review is not billed.
Severe Asthma — Questions Patients Ask
How is this different from the general asthma most people have?
Severe asthma specifically means it stays poorly controlled despite high-dose standard treatment, often needing specialist add-ons like biologics — it's a distinct, more intensive category with different risks.
Could this reduce my need for oral steroids?
That decision belongs entirely to your respiratory specialist based on your control levels and biologic response; we track markers that may support their assessment but don't adjust steroid dosing ourselves.
Is this safe if I'm currently on a biologic like omalizumab?
We need full details of your current biologic therapy first, and this would only ever run as a genuine adjunct alongside it, coordinated with your prescribing specialist.
I've had several ER visits this year — can you still help?
Frequent emergency visits signal genuinely unstable disease, and we'd want you stabilised under specialist care first — we don't take on anyone in an active unstable pattern like that.
What would tell us this is actually helping?
Fewer exacerbations, improved symptom control scores, and steadier spirometry over months — we're honest that isolating our contribution from biologic therapy already in place is genuinely difficult.
