One of the world’s most technically-advanced stem cell treatment centers will be hosting its Grand Opening on Thursday, April 27 from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. MST at Avenida Escazu Commercial Center in San Jose, Costa Rica.
Cellebration Wellness, a division of San Diego, California-based Cellebration Life Sciences, Inc., will offer one-on-one stem cell-based therapies to patients from around the world at its facility in Escazu. Curative treatments will be available for patients suffering from various autoimmune diseases, diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, cardiovascular illnesses, neuropathy, osteoarthritis, and chronic pain among others.
In addition to treatments for autoimmune diseases, stem cell therapies are also available for orthopedic injuries as well as rejuvenation and regeneration concerns.
Backed by more than 25 years of leading university research, Cellebration Wellness is headed by Dr. Anand Srivastava, considered by many to be “The Father of Stem Cell Research.”
Dr. Srivastava has a distinguished background in stem cell biology, protein biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology, tissue targeting, and gene therapy. His vision is to provide stem cell-based therapies to people suffering from genetic or degenerative diseases around the world.
Dr. Srivastava has demonstrated expertise in ongoing research and the development of stem cell-based therapies in clinical settings. He has been associated with leading universities in the United States including the University of California – San Diego and Irvine and has been affiliated with major private research organizations including the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation and the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. In addition, he has published more than 75 peer-reviewed scientific articles and is a sought-after speaker at international medical conferences throughout the world.
His emphasis continues to be on developing effective treatments using stem cell-based therapies that are applicable to a wide spectrum of human diseases and suffering degenerative conditions including: chronic pain, COPD, Crohn’s disease, type 1 and type 2 diabetes, liver cirrhosis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis. The retreat also provides stem cell therapy for skin rejuvenation, anti-aging stem cell treatment, laser hair removal, and stem cell therapy for orthopedics.
In addition to Dr. Srivastava, the Cellebration Wellness science team is comprised of 12 scientific and medical professionals from around the world. Because of this scientific depth and their ability to collaborate, the Cellebration research team can continually update and advance new stem cell protocols leading to more effective treatments.
“Our emphasis on continued university-based research is what separates Cellebration from other providers of stem cell therapies,” Dr. Srivastava said. “As science evolves and new breakthroughs are achieved, our patients can feel confident that we will provide the latest therapies to address their health and lifestyle concerns.”

She has been involved with stem cell treatments for many years while she developed extensive experience in managing patient mental health, as well as knowledge in aesthetics and fluid therapy.
The Cellebration Wellness medical professional team includes Anrabel Araya, who has more than 12 years experience in clinical microbiology, immunology, and cell culture techniques.
While obtaining his Bachelors and Masters degrees, Dr. Araya studied molecular mechanisms associated with cell migration and regeneration in angiogenesis. During this process, he analyzed how the human and murine cells react to different toxins and how these toxins interfere in the cellular scaffold and the associated cell mechanisms involved.
In the clinical field, Dr. Araya works part time at one of the main national hospitals in Costa Rica as laboratory manager, helping many patients obtain an accurate diagnosis of their health conditions. He also studied epidemiology and assisted human reproductive techniques. Dr. Araya is a cum laude graduate of the University of Costa Rica.
