Stem Cell Therapy Treatments

Bottom line: It is experimental science right now, with no proven results, but early reports look promising. There are no horror stories, but you
should thoroughly investigate the provider, knowing that they cannot promise results.
By the way, there is a rough-looking, concrete block building on the free road near Ollie's Pizza and just north of the hardware store that offers
Stem Cell Therapy Treatments.
I wouldn't have them change the oil in my car, let alone agree to injecting substances into my spine.
Just my opinion.

Citing financial reasons, this California-based company halts all stem-cell research.
Too bad-- much private-sector money wasted, many jobs lost, data left undeveloped.
Its been far too difficult to pass legislation allowing research and development of this scientific modality. To invest and begin only to stop
before definitive conclusions have been assessed is very unfortunate, imo.

Just heard that 3 men in San Felipe have been treated there. All were to have knee surgery and elected this treatment. All 3 swear by it.

They'll be swearing by this, their new Baja vehicle, next year.

I have had two ACL knee reconstructions (I should have stopped skiing off cliffs at 30 I guess). For stem cells to regenerate a specific ligament, in
place- would be the ultimate. I don't think stem cell therapies are that targeted -- yet.
