Springhill Medical Group-What is Stem Cell Therapy?
springhillmedgroup.com We have been hearing about this stem cell lately but does everyone know about what this really is? According to medical researchers, stem cell treatments have the potential to change the face of human disease and alleviate suffering. There are already many stem treatments nowadays but they are not usually used because they tend to be experimental and they are very expensive. Medical researchers foresee being able to use technologies derived from stem cell research to treat cancer, spinal cord injuries, and muscle damage, amongst a number of other diseases and impairments. This stem cell therapy is established in order to treat disease or injury by introducing new adult stem cells into damaged tissue. Stem cell therapy is an intervention strategy. The good thing about stem cell is that there are minimal risk of rejection and side effects. They have the ability to self-renew and give rise to subsequent generations with variable degrees of differentiation capacities. They also offer significant potential for generation of tissues that can potentially replace diseased and damaged areas in the body. It has been said that there are already a number of stem-cell therapies that exist but most are costly. But bone-marrow transplantation, to some extent has exemption.
