You’ve undoubtedly heard or read something about the healing power of stem cells. What you may be unaware of is that our bodies have stem cells in virtually all its tissues (called “adult stem cells” or ASCs) which play a role in replacing diseased, injured or aged bodily cells. However, when an individual is hit by serious injury or disease his body may not be able to rally enough stem cells to turn things around. This is especially true when it comes to the childhood brain disorder, cerebral palsy (CP).

Of course, mainstream doctors and therapists do all they can to strengthen limbs and reduce disability but even so their best usually leaves CP patients and their parents or caregivers frustrated with the small gains and general lack of progress.  And this was pretty much the best that could be done until about a decade ago when a small number of pioneering doctors such as Dr. Alexander Thermos began treating CP patients with hyperbaric oxygen therapy and then later adult stem cells.

CP patients here in the US can get safe, legal treatments with their own bone marrow stem cells (No rejection issues). Case-in-point: A California clinic headed by Dr. Alexander Thermos has done over 1500 such treatments on children and adults during the past six years. And, since 2009 scores of children and young people with CP have been treated with results so consistently impressive that the patient’s own doctors characterize it as “a genuine medical advance” and the “future standard of care when it comes to the treatment of cerebral palsy”.

Here is just one CP patient success story from our bulging files:

Kellie Burkhart’s son, Andrew, 6, was diagnosed with cerebral palsy two years ago. She wanted to have her son treated with adult (nonembryonic) stem cells but was uncertain where to take him. She asked her doctors in Arizona and they told her the best clinic for this is right here in the US, namely one run by Dr. Alexander Thermos. With the generous support of friends as well as members of a church in Mission Viejo (CA), Andrew had a series of hyperbaric oxygen and stem cell treatments during the summer of 2011 and again in the summer of 2012. Andrew’s response was so incredibly profound that KNBC-4 came out to Dr. Steenblock’s Clinic and taped a moving news segment which aired on 8-15-2012 that you can access by clicking this link. Following this NBC-12 aired its own very informative, very moving segment on Andrew which you can see by clicking this link.  Blog updates can be accessed by clicking this link.
