Does anyone have info on Tru Stem Cell therapy

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

I know other countries are using this with success but haven’t heard much in U.S. I would like to hear where the researchers are in U.S. and outcomes?

TruStem Cell Therapy is company/stem cell therapy clinic. There is another discussion on this topic but not specific to one clinic - Does Stem Cell Therapy work for Neuropathy?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/stem-cell-therapy-for-neuropahy/.

Not too long ago these clinics were popping up everywhere and not regulated very well. They are expensive and there are no guarantees, and then there is this warning from the FDA.

It may or may not help with neuropathy, but I would definitely do my own research before spending my own money on treatment as much as I believe this may be the future in treating neuropathy.

Nothing really proven with stem cell and neuropathy, still doing studies. Most studies for regenerative for cartilage in knees and is most promising . At this point don’t waste your money.

Have you gone on their website? They seem to be helping a lot of people! People with MS, stroke, etc. There are many promising reviews.

Just my 2 cents but I think you may be correct - "...seem to be helping a lot of people! People with MS, stroke, etc."
I didn't see anything about success with neuropathy and I doubt their website would mention anything other than positive reviews since it's an advertisement for their company.

We have several great medical institutions in our city, both associated with leading Universities with Medical Schools. I have been reading about SCT for about 10 years and wondered if it might help with my condition, that Neurosurgeons(4), Nurologists(3), Physiologists(1), Pain Specialists(7!), and Physical Therapists(5) have not been able to provide more than very temporary relief.
When a New local company started advertising about the wonders of SCT, I was hoping that this area of medicine had advanced enough to help me.
After attending their seminar, it seemed like an elaborate sales pitch and of course, none of it is covered by medical insurance. It was very expensive and after pressing for answers, they admitted that there were no actual Medical Doctors associated with this company. Patients were evaluated by a Chiropractor and Stem Cell injections were done by Nurse Practitioners.
All costs had to be paid in advance with no guarantee of outcome. Since my problem is a Deteriorating Disc Disease in my upper neck, I wasn't about to let them touch me, though I have been seeking relief for decades.
That scenario just seems too risky.
Hoping tremendously that the MAYO CLINIC has done some work in this area and can give me something to hang onto soon.

Hello @jmg7xoptimistic, Welcome to Connect. I know it's frustrating and disappointing when something comes into your sights and seems hopeful only to have it turn out to not be as good as you were hoping for. Since you mentioned deteriorating disc disease in your upper neck, you might want to read through a discussion started by @jenniferhunter here:
--- Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) for treating compression and pain:
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/myofascial-release-therapy-mfr-for-treating-compression-and-pain/.

Have you heard of Myofascial Release Therapy?

I've spoken with them a couple of times after speaking with a multitude of other stem cell centers. They seem to be far and away the most professional and credible center. My neurologist has actually referred me to them as he was a patient there himself. I'm not sure that they're an orthopedic center as they focus primarily on neurological and autoimmune conditions. You can see their reviews on their website trustemcell.com/reviews
