Adult Stem Cell Therapy

Real Patient Success Stories: Adult Stem Cell Therapy

“I have had chronic neck pain for more than 10 years caused by bone spurs and arthritis, and I have had four epidural treatments to relieve the pain. Last year, I did stem cell therapy at Whitaker Wellness, and my neck has been pain free ever since.” — Carol D., CA

“Since I had adult stem cell therapy to help control my Parkinson’s disease, I feel stronger and more enthusiastic, and activities such as dressing myself, buttoning my shirts, and tying my shoes keep getting easier and easier.” — Richard O., WA

“It has only been four weeks since my stem cell therapy, but my limp is improving, and I feel less pain in both of my hip joints.”
— Rich M., CA

“I’ve had multiple sclerosis for more than 20 years. I’ve been on every MS medication available, but there were still times when I was unable to get out of bed, walk, talk, or feed myself, and I had to give up working as a hospice nurse. My daughter and I flew to California for the procedure in September. The results are far more than I could have ever imagined! Today I am on no prescription medicine, and I have hardly any signs of MS. I am back working as an RN and enjoying my family. We are able to plan activities and travel now, which is something we never could do before. I tell everyone about my experience with adult stem cells at Whitaker Wellness and highly recommend it to anyone with a chronic illness.” — Stacie R., TN

“I was involved in a motorcycle accident in 1989 and sustained a spinal cord injury. With therapy I was able to walk again, but the right side of my body had limited mobility and use. After doing stem cell therapy, I have more strength and can stand for longer periods of time. Other gains, which surprised me, include improvements in my hearing and eyesight.” — Craig C., CA

“During the first year after our son’s traumatic brain injury, everyone kept saying he would hit a plateau, but we refused to accept that. Now James is on year four, and he’s still getting better and learning more every day. He is more independent and able to express himself better, and his medication doses have been cut in half. He is also much happier and less depressed. We attribute this to his hard work in physical therapy and the stem cell therapy, hyperbaric oxygen, and other treatments he has received at Whitaker Wellness.” — James, Robert, and Marcia V., TX

“In 2001, a pulmonologist diagnosed my shortness of breath as COPD. I was on oxygen at night and Advair by day, but my resting O2 was falling below 90, and my energy was low. In May 2014, I had adult stem cell therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy at Whitaker Wellness. To summarize: Stem cell therapy has boosted my oxygen, raised my energy level, and allows me at age 81 to continue living on my own with confidence and competence.” — Janet N., AZ

“I suffered from bone-on-bone bilateral knee pain, as well as leg pain caused by MS. The pain kept me awake most nights, and every time I walked I was in agony. Some days the pain was so bad I didn’t think I would make it down the hallways at school where I teach. Almost three months after having stem cell therapy, I can walk all over the school building with little or no pain. I sleep much better, and I’m a much happier person.”
— Susan N., SD

“I have a lot of problems due to multiple system atrophy. Stem cell therapy has helped me with my breathing, which is almost back to normal. I no longer wake up during the night unable to breathe. I now have feeling in the bottom of my feet, and my kidney disease has improved.” — Bruce D., Canada

Stem Cell Therapy Treats Multiple Conditions

Chronic pain, Parkinson’s disease, osteoarthritis, lung and kidney disease, multiple sclerosis, brain and spinal cord injuries, vision and hearing loss… It’s rare that a single treatment can provide dramatic improvements across such a broad range of health challenges.

But that’s what makes adult stem cell therapy so powerful and unique. It simply unleashes the regenerative power of your body’s own stem cells, which are responsible for healing, growth, and replacement of cells damaged or worn out by injury, illness, aging, and normal wear and tear. And because stem cells are unspecialized and have the ability to change into various cell types, they can target a wide variety of tissues and organs.

Therapeutic use of adult stem cells has rapidly advanced in the past few years. It got off to a rocky start because of ethical issues related to embryonic cells, which were used in early research. Today, adult mesenchymal stem cells are used because they are free of controversy, safe, and able to differentiate into bone, cartilage, muscle, fat, neuron-like cells, and more. Furthermore, they’re easily isolated, concentrated, and administered.

Adult Stem Cells Hidden in Fat

Stem cells are located in tissues throughout the body, but the most abundant source is fat. That’s right—your own fat is a treasure trove of rejuvenating adult stem cells! Bone marrow also contains reasonable numbers of stem cells, though far fewer than fat, but harvesting them is more invasive, and extensive incubation is required to obtain acceptable concentrations. Fat, on the other hand, is right there for the taking, and most of us have plenty to spare.

At Whitaker Wellness, we remove a small amount of fat, usually from the abdominal area, through a minimal liposuction procedure. The stem cells are then separated from the fat, concentrated and counted, and returned back into the patient via an intravenous infusion or, in some cases, injection directly into problematic areas.

Regenerative Medicine at Its Best

Once these concentrated cells are redeployed, the body’s own innate wisdom takes over. Signaled by inflammation, adult stem cells home in on damaged tissues, where they produce growth factors and other compounds necessary for repair and regeneration.

Some, such as vascular endothelial growth factors and angiogenesis mediators, stimulate the production of new blood vessels to restore circulation and oxygen supply. Others prevent apoptosis (programmed cell death) or boost the formation of various cell types. Stem cell therapy also curbs excessive inflammation and helps regulate the immune response, which is key to the treatment’s benefits for inflammatory conditions and autoimmune diseases.

In addition to the improvements reported by patients at Whitaker Wellness, fat-derived adult stem cells have been shown to help patients with liver problems such as cirrhosis and hepatitis, bone and skin defects, heart attacks and heart failure, diabetes cornea damage, tissue transplants, and radiation injury. Hundreds of registered clinical trials are currently underway to further study the use of fat-derived adult stem cells for many of our most debilitating disorders.

If you ask your conventional doctor about stem cell therapy, you may be told it’s promising, the future of medicine even, but not ready for prime time. That may be an acceptable answer for healthy young people. But if you’re suffering with a chronic, intractable condition and need help now, I urge you to consider adult stem cell therapy. It’s safe, effective, and available right now.

Where to Get Adult Stem Cell Therapy

To recap, fat-derived adult stem cell therapy is an excellent treatment for most any musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, neurological, respiratory, or inflammatory condition. To learn more about how to receive stem cell therapy at the Whitaker Wellness Institute, call (866) 944-8253.
