Royal Palm Beach, FL 33411 [] August 30, 2023 [] Reader, âYouâll just have to learn to live with the pain...â Thatâs what my patientâs doctor told him. I canât imagine hearing anything worse from the healthcare professional you trust to help you when you need it most. [joel-salatin] After stem cell therapy, Bruce H. is pain-free, back to walking an hour a day, and feels like he has a new lease on life. By this point, Bruceâs tendonitis pain in his left was so severe he couldnât walk for more than 10 minutes without being forced to sit down. Heâd already undergone a hip replacement, followed by a second surgery to repair the tendon. But neither provided the outcome he was seeking â and Bruce was told he was out of options. His surgeon sent him home and told him to cope with the pain... Of course this was out of the question. Bruce knew there had to be a solution that didnât involve surgery, drugs, or spending the rest of his life sitting on the sidelines. So he asked his friends for advice. At the time, Bruce wasnât a reader of my email letters, but his friend was. And this friend told Bruce about the stem cell therapies we use at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging that have helped hundreds of patients in similar circumstances make a full recovery. Bruce immediately booked an appointment and flew down to South Florida from Michigan. I knew he was the perfect candidate for stem cell therapy. You know stem cells are the reserve of âreplacement cellsâ youâre born with. Your body can use them to replace any kind of cell that is damaged, old, or dying. Stem cells allow your body to regenerate damaged and injured tissue. Let me explain... After an injury or years of wear-and-tear-damage, injured cells in your tendons and joints send out molecular signals. Itâs kind of your bodyâs SOS call for help... Stem cells react to these signals, then travel to the injured tissue and release proteins that nourish and stimulate your own cells to begin regenerating. Once the stem cells arrive, they release: - Growth factors
- Cytokines
- Chemokines These powerful proteins are cellular messengers that send signals to activate the production of new cells. This special signaling mechanism is what triggers the healing power of these cells. These cellular messengers also stimulate your cells to regenerate your tissue, inhibit inflammation, open up your blood vessels and help form new ones, and activate disease-fighting T-cells. There are studies that suggest using stem cells for tendon regeneration provides a very good outcome. Research shows that mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) treatment â what Bruce had done â is moving toward being an effective regenerative therapy for treating tendon disorders. - A 2021 study published in the journal Stem Cell International found that MSC therapy may increase the number of tenocytes and regenerate the injured tendon tissue.1
- Researchers wrote in a 2023 study published in the Journal of Orthopaedic Research that MSCs can regenerate and repair the tendon more effectively than other types of cells.2
- A third study concluded that stem cells promote tendon repair by decreasing inflammation and forming new blood vessels. Both are critical to tendon repair.3 These studies show how stem cells are very supportive for regenerating tendons. They were animal studies, including thoroughbred racehorses. My patients prove stem cell therapy works Three months after his stem cell therapy, Bruce let us know how he was doing. Hereâs what he told us: âToday, I am without pain. I feel like I have a new lease on life at 90 years of age. âAfter having stem cells injected in my left hip area at your clinic, I can now walk for one hour at a time with no pain. âI exercise by walking five days a week and Iâm slowly getting back into good shape. âBefore, I couldnât even walk 10 minutes without having to stop because of the pain.â
Are you ready to see if stem cells can help you? I believe that stem cells are the future of modern medicine. They use what your own body provides to initiate your natural healing and repair system. If you are interested in learning about the stem cell procedures I offer at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine, please call my friendly staff at (561)784-7852. They are more than happy to schedule your appointment. To Your Good Health, Al Sears, MD, CNS --------------------------------------------------------------- References: 1.
