Stem Cell Therapy For
Stroke Recovery

Since stroke affects the specific areas of the brain, its symptoms are directly related to the affected parts. The symptoms usually occur suddenly and patients might not be able to understand the cause of it.

The complications or signs that indicate that a patient has suffered a stroke are –

• Difficulty speaking or speech impairment
• Having trouble understanding speech
• Dizziness and loss of consciousness
• Loss of balance and difficulty standing or walking
• Memory deficits and confusion
• Severe headaches
• Loss of sensation or numbness in one side of the body
• Blurred or loss of vision
• Facial weakness

If the stroke is not immediately treated, it can cause permanent disability and serious brain damage. Patients should be rushed to the hospital as early as possible to prevent further damage or complications.

The number of brain cells affected and the location of the cell death or damage in the brain are integral in determining the outcomes in a patient. Other factors that contribute to the cause of stroke in individuals are age, pre-existing medical conditions, and lifestyle habits. The three types of stroke and what causes them are as follows –

• Ischemic Stroke – This type of stroke is caused when there is a blockage in blood flow due to blood clots in the arteries.

• Hemorrhagic Stroke – A hemorrhagic stroke is caused by the tearing of blood vessels causing bleeding in the brain. High blood pressure is a reason that causes the rupture of blood vessels.

• Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) – It is a “mini-stroke” lasting for nearly 5 minutes, caused by a temporary blockage of blood supply to the brain.

Certain risk factors trigger the cause of stroke. These include –

• History of heart attack
• High blood pressure
• High levels of blood cholesterol and lipids
• Obesity
• Drug use
• Excessive alcohol consumption
• Sickle Cell Disease
• Atrial fibrillation
• Family history of strokes
• Birth control pills
• Excessive smoking

Standard examinations are performed initially to determine whether the patient has suffered a stroke. The tests include checking the blood pressure, pulse rate, body sensation, and reflexes. Other tests are also done to detect the location, type, and cause of the stroke. These examinations include an angiogram of the head, echocardiogram (ECG), CT scan, Carotid duplex (ultrasound), and Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).

Our doctors at Life Altering Stem Cell Therapy will also review your medical history and consider your age to determine your eligibility for stem cell therapy for post-stroke recovery. You need to provide complete details of your past treatments, pre-existing health disorders, allergies, current symptoms, stroke effects, and overall health status post-stroke. After thoroughly analyzing your condition, our qualified stem cell specialists will decide whether you are capable of receiving stem cells or not.

Stroke recovery support through stem cells is a proven and effective treatment method to regenerate cells around the brain tissue affected by the stroke. The stem cells administered get activated and promote rapid healing and enhance brain function. Stem cell treatment for post-stroke effects provides therapeutic benefits to stroke survivors.

• Human umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (HUCT-MSCs) migrate to ischemic regions or affected areas of the brain to stimulate neuron regeneration.
• They increase the production of chemokines (tiny protein molecules) in the targeted regions and aid in tissue recovery.
• Stem cells stimulate the formation of new neurons which is called neurogenesis.
• Stem cells also promote the growth of new blood vessels in ischemic tissues in the brain.
• They are immunomodulators and hence, modify the immune response to the damaged brain cells.

To summarize, our neurogenic stem cell treatment for stroke recovery utilizes the therapeutic properties of mesenchymal stem cells, collected from the human umbilical cord tissues, promotes the regrowth of damaged nerve tissues, and activates the natural repair system of the human body, helping patients recover faster from stroke.

At Life Altering Stem Cell Therapy Institute, our doctors follow safe and reliable methods of stem cell administration that are clinically proven to yield effective outcomes in patients. The two most popular methods are IV infusions and targeted administrations.

Systemic intravenous infusions of stem cells are considered the most preferred procedure for maximum effectiveness as the stem cells are injected through veins that travel and fully saturate the body, activating its regenerative capabilities in the affected brain tissues. Our stem cell specialists have more than 19 years of experience and they carefully evaluate the patient’s condition to plan a personalized treatment protocol for post-stroke recovery. The protocol covers all the details such as the total number of stem cells that need to be administered, for how many days, and so on.

Innovative stroke rehabilitation with stem cells in our clinic in Mexico improves the overall health and quality of the patient’s life by managing symptoms. Cell-based treatment leads to a reduction in complications in stroke patients and some major improvements in condition are seen in the patients. These are –

• Regained muscle strength
• Improve joint strength, bending and straightening
• Increased agility in fingers
• Ability to eat and swallow food independently
• Improvement in speech and facial expressions
• Better mobility, coordination, and balance
• Improved vision

However, it is important to note that the timeline of a patient’s response to stem cell interventions in stroke recovery is difficult to predict. The results may differ from one person to another. For some, it could take weeks and for others, it may take months to show noticeable results.

Our focus remains on the safety and efficacy of the patients who come to us for stem cell therapy for stroke recovery in Mexico. With a class-part clinical setting and compassionate doctors and staff, we aim to provide patient-centric care. Our team comprises only certified and accredited surgeons, physicians, and stem cell specialists who deliver superior cell-based treatment to our patients.

The stem cell experts have a wealth of experience in cellular-based and regenerative medicine.

We maintain 100% transparency in our stem cell procedure and ensure patient safety and comfort every step of the way. Our doctors and health advocates give you realistic and truthful expectations from stem cell therapy and do not make inaccurate claims or outlandish promises to cure any condition.

We have become the prime center of medical tourism in Mexico because of the availability of advanced stem cell therapy using cutting-edge technologies. The cost of stem cell therapy for Stroke recovery in our stem cell clinic in Mexico is significantly low.

For exact cost estimation, we consider the following factors –

• Severity of stroke effects and the term of illness
• Age of the patient
• Medical history of the patient
• Existing complications
• The number of stem cell administration required
• Pre-treatment investigations

The staff at Life Altering Stem Cell Therapy Institute will call you at regular intervals to track the progress of the patient and check whether he or she is facing any complications. The follow-up calls by our medical coordinators help us monitor the improvements and address their queries and other issues post-treatment.

Full neurological recovery with stem cells for post-stroke effects may take several months as new stem cells administered begin to regenerate new brain cells, enhancing brain function and preventing future brain strokes. We will make sure that our medical coordinators will remain by your side until you recover completely and start leading a normal life.
