Stem Cell Treatment for Brain
Injuries Offers New Hope
How Can Stem Cell Therapy Treat Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and CTE?
A sudden Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) can be devastating, leaving patients profoundly impaired—with poor memory, cognitive effects, inability to focus, and decrease or lack of motor and sensory functions. Other brain injuries such as chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) emerge more gradually, the result of multiple traumas or concussions sustained over many years.
In many cases, brain injuries can lead to harmful neuroinflammation, which can have profound effects on other areas of the body. But research shows that stem cells from umbilical cords secrete factors that can reduce inflammation as well as modulate the body’s immune response to help promote healing.
See if stem cell treatment is right for you.
