For something as serious as a stroke, worldwide medical solutions seem lacking. Many people find this out in the most trying time when, out of nowhere, a stroke completely changes someone’s life. Nicola, one of our latest patients, felt the same frustration when she suffered from one and, as she tried to research ways to alleviate her symptoms, was left looking for better answers.
When she and her supportive husband decided that the traditional therapies weren’t doing enough to defy the root cause of her disease, they took to the internet and found us. They immediately felt better knowing there was a window of opportunity still open to them that might help Nicola regain much of what she had lost after her infarction. They felt confident in their decision and, after discussing her case with our doctors, planned their trip to come and see us. The Global Stem Cells team welcomed them to Bangkok and brought her to the hospital where she began her stem cell treatment. Since stem cells have had many documented successes in fighting stroke symptoms in the past few years, they were optimistic about what our experts could do to help them.
As they went through the motions of analysing Nicola’s physical problems, she began undergoing stem cell treatments alongside physical therapy and a regimen of immune-boosting protocols that helped her body and mind bounce back from the trauma. Within days, Nicola’s energy had returned and her specialists observed an impressive improvement against an ailment that she was told could only be managed and not helped in any way. According to her lead physician, Dr. Nasir, she experienced improvements in many areas including range of motion, motor function and a reduction in spasticity.
As she sat with her husband to talk to us about her progress, we were thrilled to see her in good spirits, talking about the wonderful progress she had made since they decided to stay with us. From pain relief to discussing how the staff truly helped her and made her feel like she was at home, our patient had nothing but wonderful things to say about her treatment with us.
