Stem Cell “Experts” Bending Reality…
The last few years have seen an explosion of clinics with physicians all claiming to be experts in stem cell treatment. Some of these are orthopedic focused, but most, not wanting to miss a business opportunity, have decided to offer care to all sorts of vulnerable sick patients. I’d like to dissect some web-sites that are great…read more
Can a Disc Stem Cell Injection Work When All Else Fails?

He’s one of the more recalcitrant back pain patients that I have seen in years, failing to show significant improvements with just about everything we, or anyone else, did. That was…read more

However, every once in awhile you see a patient were the success was life changing. SR and her low back disc stem…read more
New Regenexx Difference Video: Regenexx vs Other Stem Cell Treatments
When we began this work using stem cells to treat orthopedic injuries in 2005, there was nobody else in the United States doing this type of work. As the years progressed we saw a few other clinics pop up, but these past few years clinics have been popping up like crazy. More importantly, as I…read more
Are Many Lab Based Stem Cell Research Studies Invalid?
One of the stem cell research groups that I run is a non-profit involved with in-vitro lab experiments that require donor cells. What I recently learned about the details of how stem cells are routinely procured by universities for research was very disturbing and may invalidate many of the published lab experiments that we all…read more
New Discoveries: Aging and the Cell and Bridges?
Everyone gets old, if they’re lucky enough. There are choices we can make to slow down parts of the aging process, but what causes aging in the first place? To answer that question you need to be able to examine and characterize what’s going on at the cellular level. A novel study was able to do just…read more
