CellTherapy

Cell Therapy  involves transferring cells into a patient to improve or cure a disease. Initially, blood transfusions were the first routine cell therapy practiced. Over time, bone marrow transplantation became a well-established treatment for various blood disorders, including anemia, leukemia, lymphoma, and rare immunodeficiency diseases. Alternative medical practitioners also perform cell therapy under names like xenotransplant therapy, glandular therapy, and fresh cell therapy. Proponents claim that cell therapy has successfully repaired spinal cord injuries, strengthened weakened immune systems, treated autoimmune diseases like AIDS, and helped patients with neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and epilepsy.
