This morning - we talked "knee pain" - for people who have it...they know it can be one of the most debilitating conditions out there.
With millions of knee replacements and surgeries being performed in the US each year - this morning we have more on a new therapy being offered - it's called "stem cell therapy"
Dr. James Altizer and one of his patients Jeff LeBlanc were here to tell us more.
Dr. A says "Stem cell therapy is going to revolutionize treatment of joint pain and muscular skeletal disorders...especially arthritis. it's the first treatment we've ever had that can actually slowdown arthritis."
The doctor goes on to tell us it can be used to treat a variety of knee conditions, and in many instances keep people from having to undergo knee surgery.
Jeff LeBlanc is a patient of Dr. A's who shared how the therapy helped him after he suffered a a torn meniscus. He described how the recovery was much faster than it would have been had he had to undergo surgery.
Right now NeoGenix is offering a free consultation, to see if this type of therapy is right for you.
