A healthy spine must be strong enough to support your entire body, yet flexible enough to allow you to move your limbs. Thats why your spine isnt just one bone, but an intricately designed set of smaller bones called vertebrae each separated by a disc of cartilage.

These discs cushion each vertebra, so they dont grind against each other and cause pain. When degenerative disc disorders set in, however, these cushions wear out. But patients can now take advantage of advanced stem-cell therapy that can heal disc tissue and reduce inflammation, alleviate chronic pain and restore flexibility and range of motion.

While surgery and medications may be treatment options, surgical procedures can be risky and many patients cannot tolerate the side effects of many medications.

Thats why more patients choose stem-cell therapy a procedure that takes advantage of the bodys natural healing processes. Discover how stem-cell therapy can help you heal more quickly and enjoy a more active lifestylewith less pain.

Advanced stem-cell treatments can help a range of issues:

Another remarkable aspect of the human body is that it actually knows how to heal itself, which is why the latest advancements in stem-cell therapy offerhope to more patients to relieve pain without the need for surgery or medications that can lead to serious side effects.

Because stem cells that come from your bone marrow have the potential to become any type of cell, the body turns those stem cells into specific cells needed to heal various tissues. If you burn your skin, for example, stem cells are turned into new skin cells. If youve injured a muscle, your body uses stem cells to regenerate muscle tissue. And as discs deteriorate, your body can use stem cells to create new disc tissue to rehydrate those discs and return them to a normal shape easing pain and inflammation.

Unfortunately, stem-cell production begins to decline as we age. But with an infusion of millions of fresh new stem cells, the body can use those cells to quickly stimulate healing without the need to go under the knife or risk serious side effects from steroids or the consequences of using addictive pain killers.

At BioXcellerator, we treat many patients for conditions like these with exceptional results often within days and even more ongoing improvement in the months and years following treatment.

For example, we treated Superbowl champion Mark May, who told us that he noticed improvement in just one day. I feel better. My neck feels a lot better and thats only after 24 hours, May said. Im shockingly surprised about how well its gone so far.

He also said that the first night after his treatment was the first he'd slept in once place in many years.

And army veteran and WWF Hall of Famer Kevin Nash let us know that his stem-cell therapy was a life-changing experience. He said that hes suffered from chronic pain for many years, but the very day after treatment said that when he was walking, I probably passed 300 people. Its the fastest Ive probably walked since I was 30 and that was 30 years ago.

Not only that, butafter two months of stem-cell therapy, he also reported the alleviation of his 24/7 pain.

These are only a few examples of the exceptional results stem cells can offer patients with disorders and injuries in the back and the neck. But its important to realize that the stem cells that various clinics offer can vary widely in quantity and potency. Stem cells derived from the placenta or umbilical cord are considered the gold standard and are rarely available in clinics located in the United States.

Our research team has developed a proprietary protocol for harvesting and reproducing only the most potent stem cells possible. Starting with a specific type of stem cell mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from donated umbilical cordswe then test these cells for specific proteins and genes that indicate the highest potential to reduce inflammation and stimulate healing. Then, those cells are reproduced into formulations of millions of high-potency stem cells called Golden Cells for infusion into patients during treatment.

In addition to promoting healing of damaged discs, stem-cell therapy can also be an effective treatment for other spinal injuries and diseases, brain injuriesand many other conditions. And one common treatment benefit is that because stem cells help the body better modulate the immune system and have powerful anti-inflammatory properties, stem-cell therapy helps improve immunity, performance and longevity.
