Stem cell therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that uses stem cells to repair damaged cells within the body by reducing inflammation and modulating the immune system. Stem cells are the cells that develop into blood, brain, bones, and all of the body’s organs. They have the potential to repair, restore, replace, and regenerate cells, and could possibly be used to treat many medical conditions and diseases. Stem cell therapy can be used to treat a variety of medical conditions, such as autoimmune, inflammatory, and neurological disorders.

There are different types of stem cell treatments, including stem cell IV therapy and stem cell transplant. In a stem cell transplant, stem cells are first specialized into the necessary adult cell type. Then, those mature cells replace tissue that is damaged by disease or injury. This type of treatment could be used to replace neurons damaged by spinal cord injury, stroke, Alzheimers disease, Parkinsons disease, or other neurological problems, produce insulin that could treat people with diabetes or cartilage to repair damage caused by arthritis, or replace virtually any tissue or organ that is injured or diseased.

It is important to note that while stem cell therapies may offer the potential to treat diseases or conditions for which few treatments exist, some unscrupulous providers offer stem cell products that are both unapproved and unproven. Therefore, it is important to confirm what is really being offered before considering any treatment.
