At 6 weeks after a Mesenchymal stem cell injection for osteoarthritis in one hip joint — results nothing short of miraculous.

Reportedly positive results for many other “soft tissue” issues, including some brain issues such as Parkinson’s.

I predict stem cell treatments will obsolete many “gold standard” treatments for various soft tissue and brain injuries...

You received the injection? Can you share some more details, I'm very curious.

3 years of increasing pain in hip, and inability to move, bend. Diagnosis after x-ray.

5 minute treatment.

Almost complete recovery after 6 weeks, still improving.

I can give you contact info for someone to talk to, if you have more questions.

PS: I’m Canadian, so standard course would be pain management, followed by years-long wait for surgery. Instead, I’m jogging around with my 3-year old girl!
