Stem Cell therapy is a promising medical therapy with many indications including osteoarthritis, chronic pain, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, type 1 diabetes, and heart disease (1). Stem cells have been shown to be especially helpful for low back pain and knee pain. Great, sign me up!
Unfortunately, not all stem cell therapies are created equal. The FDA as recently as April 2019 issued a warning against certain types of stem cell clinics (2). They specifically recommend against using stem cells that are heterologous (i.e. derived from a different person), derived from fat cells, or are manipulated prior to injection into the target site.
WellMax prides itself on delivering the highest quality and cutting-edge stem cell therapy. We utilize bone marrow cell concentrate (BMCC-stem cells harvested from the patient’s own bone marrow) and the cells are then injected to target sites without additional manipulation. Cells are harvested using conscious sedation, which is the same technique utilized for screening colonoscopies, so the procedure is virtually pain-free. Cells are then injected under CT-guidance, which ensures accuracy of the location of injection to within 1 mm. Cells are counted for specificity of treatment and for clinical consistency. Finally, WellMax charges less than $7,000 for the top of the line therapy including conscious sedation and CT-guided injections whereas most clinics charge well over $10,000. Contact our clinic for more information today.

Thanks for sharing this valuable information. Thanks for taking action for us. I am a newer investor, to be honest, just didn't like Gil's tone yesterday and lack of concrete information. He ended the meeting rather short citing that it was late in the night in Japan for Hardy. I thought that was a bit off. I listed to Hardy who exudes confidence and urgency; can't say the same about Gil. I recommend you visit this website and read it, I sure you explore more knowledgeable content.
I was suffering from Parkinson's since 2014 & life had become disastrous for me,75 % of my body was covered by Tremors.After taking product from www .multivitamincare .org under supervision of Dr. Casey, I started getting results within 3 weeks of their dosage .One day I got extremely sick, could not keep anything down, difficulty standing, restless sleep,Started taking this remedies twice daily. I am writing this to inform others that nothing was really working to help my PD other than this product.I went off my previous medications (with the doctor’s knowledge) and started on their Parkinson’s disease herbal formula.Treatment went very well and tremors are gone.
