Don
Orthopedic Patient
I am 56 years old and an active athlete involved in all kinds of fitness activities. My right shoulder was losing flexibility and so was my ability to raise both arms above my head. As I slept at night and put my head on my shoulder and my pillow, pain was excruciating. Even things like reaching from the front seat to the back seat to lift things was very uncomfortable. I went to see a Sports Medicine Physician who recommended rehab, which would never have fixed the loss of cartilage, and/or a shoulder replacement. Neither one of those options appealed to me. That’s when my chiropractor suggested looking into stem cell treatments and I am so glad he did. The stem cell procedure was a walk in the park compared to a shoulder replacement. I was in and out in only a couple of hours. I felt a little bit uncomfortable afterwards but nothing painful. My shoulder on the second day was 1000% better than the first day I went in. I am back to doing pushups, swimming and other activities and my shoulder feels fine and has gotten noticeably better. Overall it was great! I have already recommended the Stem Cell treatment to my mother.
