Frequently Asked Questions About Spinal Cord Injury Stem Cell Therapy
Can stem cell therapy help spinal cord injury?
MSC therapy supports spinal cord repair by reducing inflammation, promoting axonal regeneration, remyelinating damaged nerve fibers, and creating a regenerative environment. Many patients experience functional improvements below their injury level.
How soon after spinal cord injury should stem cell therapy begin?
MSC therapy can be administered at any stage after SCI, but earlier intervention (within the first year) typically yields the best results. However, patients even years after injury can benefit from neuroplasticity-promoting effects of MSC therapy.
What improvements can SCI patients expect from stem cell therapy?
Improvements may include increased sensation below the injury level, better motor control, improved bladder and bowel function, reduced neuropathic pain, and enhanced quality of life. Results vary based on injury severity and level.
What delivery method is used for spinal cord injury stem cell therapy?
We use a combination of IV infusion and intrathecal injection (directly into the spinal fluid) to maximize cell delivery to the injury site. This dual-route approach ensures systemic anti-inflammatory effects plus targeted neural repair.
