Conditions we address

What you are living — and what our protocols are designed for.

Each SELVA protocol exists for a specific reason. Below is what brings patients to us, what we address, and what can realistically be expected. Every protocol begins with a medical evaluation — and we are clear about who is, and is not, a candidate.

Energy & mental clarity

When nothing is “wrong” — and that is exactly the frustration.

What you are living

You haven't slowed down, but something has. Mornings take longer to start. Focus that used to be automatic now takes effort. Recovery — from a workout, a long week, a flight — isn't what it was.

What we address

The Pura and Vida protocols are designed for energetic decline, slow recovery and mental fog in the absence of a specific disease — supporting how the body produces and sustains energy at the cellular level.

What to expect

Many patients describe a lift in energy and clarity within the first days. Responses vary, and we will set realistic expectations with you, and your patient coordinator stays in contact through the months that follow.

Joints & osteoarthritis

When every staircase has become a calculation.

What you are living

The first steps in the morning are the hardest. You have quietly changed how you move — to protect a knee, a hip, a shoulder. Conventional options have helped only so far.

What we address

The Nicoya protocol is for grade I–III osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, shoulder, ankle or jaw. Regenerative cellular therapy is delivered into the joint under ultrasound guidance by an orthopedic specialist.

What to expect

Improvement, when it comes, is gradual — typically over weeks. It is not guaranteed, and not a substitute for surgery when surgery is clearly indicated. We will tell you clearly whether you are a candidate.

Injury & chronic inflammation

An injury that never followed the timeline you were promised.

What you are living

Soft tissue that stays inflamed, stays tender, stays in the way — long after it should have settled. You have rested it, treated it, waited.

What we address

The Raíz protocol is designed for refractory soft-tissue injury, post-surgical recovery and localized chronic inflammation that has not responded to conservative management, combining systemic and ultrasound-guided regenerative therapy.

What to expect

Patients often notice reduced inflammation within days, with functional improvement over the following weeks. Chronic injuries may benefit from an additional cycle. Outcomes vary, and we are transparent about that from the outset.

Skin & facial regeneration

Your own face — simply rendered well.

What you are living

The mirror tells a story slightly out of step with how you feel. Texture, luminosity, firmness — the quiet markers of time.

What we address

The Flora protocol is facial regeneration over three days — microneedling with regenerative signaling, mesotherapy and supportive IV therapy, with an optional scalp treatment for hair density.

What to expect

Luminosity is often visible early; texture and firmness develop over weeks, with peak results around two to three months. Results vary and are not permanent — your care team will discuss maintenance with you directly.

Respiratory function

When your breath no longer keeps up with you.

What you are living

On the stairs, on the trail, on the days that used to feel easy — your breath falls a step behind. Perhaps a respiratory illness left a mark; perhaps years of travel or old habits did.

What we address

The Aire protocol is designed to optimize respiratory function in patients with preserved or mildly compromised lungs — travelers, mild post-COVID sequelae, former smokers, endurance athletes. It is not offered for severe lung disease.

What to expect

Improvement in respiratory capacity typically appears over two to four weeks. Responses vary, and your physician screens carefully to confirm the protocol is appropriate for you.

A word on expectations

SELVA does not promise specific results, exact timelines, or cures. We promise a complete protocol, continuous physician presence during your treatment, and a dedicated patient coordinator who stays with you through the months that follow. Every patient is evaluated individually, and some conditions mean a protocol is not appropriate — we will always tell you clearly.

Not sure which protocol fits you?

That is exactly what the consultation is for. Tell us what you are experiencing, and your patient coordinator will guide you.
