Bone Marrow Stem Cell Therapy
The latest discovery in the world of natural medical therapies are STEM CELLS! You have within you all of the tools needed to repair your body and keep you healthy. The future of medicine is NOT better drugs but better use and application of your body's own stem cells. As of now stem cells can be extracted from your hip with virtually no discomfort and used to restore your body. This reality opens up an exciting new horizon in preventing and treating disease and reducing the symptoms of aging - if not aging itself. Already, patients are returning to me for more treatments because they are seeing that their gray or white hair are turning back to their original color. Their skin is looking younger. They have more energy and less arthritic aches and pains!
Over the past two years, we have done over 1000 bone marrow procedures with much success. Contrary to the conventional painful methods used, we have developed an almost painless approach to the extraction of the bone marrow and the hidden trove of treasures- the wonderful healing stem cells - contained within. Using the patient's own bone marrow rather than someone else's has totally eliminated the risk of graft versus host disease and the need for toxic chemotherapy to suppress the immune system. Since you are merely transferring stem cells from your bones into your blood stream there is never an allergic or rejection type of reaction since these are your own cells. The results have been phenomenal! Patients with memory loss are beginning to remember more after their bone marrow transplants. Patients with macular degeneration are reporting better eye sight. Many of the patients with traumatic brain injuries are able to move their legs again. Those with sports injuries, osteoarthritis or a torn rotator cuff are feeling relief from pain within days of their treatment. One person had a heart attack and then ten days later, he came to us for a bone marrow transplant. He was strong enough to return to work in about half the usual time - to the astonishment of his cardiologist. Even patients with genetic disorders are getting improvements from several transplants. The November issue of the Townsend Letter for Physicians and Patients will have my article on treating a person with Huntington's Disease. With each bone marrow transplant he received, he became stronger and more coordinated. Now he is back taking his beautiful wife out dancing once again!
What is the secret behind the successes with the bone marrow treatments? While bone marrow transplants have been done for the past 50 years for cancer patients and those with blood disorders, this procedure is different because it is being used for neurological conditions as well as other health problems. It uses your own bone marrow and instead of isolating one type of stem cell, it uses a rich variety of stem and progenitor cells that hide deep inside of your bones. The bone marrow is rich in two different types of stem cells. One type turns into blood cells, blood vessels, and cells of the immune system. These cells are called hematopoietic stem cells (heme meaning blood-related). The other type of stem cell in the bone marrow are support stem cells that produce bone, fat, tendons, skin, muscles and connective tissue. Recent research shows that these hematopoietic and the support stem cells are also able to divide into all types of brain cells, including glial cells (white matter) and neurons (gray matter). The bone marrow also contains retinal progenitor cells and several patients have commented on how their vision has improved as a side benefit of their bone marrow procedure.
In regard to its anti-aging effects, the bone marrow contains primitive progenitor cells that are associated with the early development of the fetus. These primitive cells lie dormant deep inside your bone and hold a more perfect genetic matrix from your early development. When these primitive cells are released into your system, there can be a revitalization of your body that physiologically "sets the clock back" by reproducing the youthful genes from these cells. Several patients have reported that the bone marrow transplants have also improved their sexual performance. This is a side effect of the stem and progenitor cells repairing your sex organs as well as your other tissues.
What does this mean for you? Your bone marrow stem cells have the potential to repair most damaged tissue. Whether you want an anti-aging treatment or you need the procedure to repair damage in your joints, liver, kidneys, heart or brain, a bone marrow transplant uses your own stem cells to safely repair your body. The result is an exciting opportunity in regenerative medicine.
