AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS ( ALS)

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) , also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a debilitating neurodegnerative disease affecting the upper and lower extremities, respiratory muscles, tongue, bladder and intestinal functions. It can be a slow degenerative form or at times it can be rapid in its signs and progression. There is no known cure and current treatments have limited effect on the repair of the damage done to motor neurons.

Our treatment consists of the following:

  1. Endogenous stem cells are stimulated in the patient’s own brain and spinal cord . This is done over a period of three days.
  2. Patients will receive by intrathecal spinal canal administration neuron stem cells; nerve cell growth factors such as brain neuropeptide, neurotrophins, nerve cell factor, glial derived neurotrophin, transformation growth factor; vascular endothelial growth factor.
    This procedure is done under sterile techniques by either a specialist; neurologist; neurosurgeon; anesthesiologist.
  3. Intensive rehabilitation and physical therapy.
  4. Intravenous administration of immunological factors and neurological supplements.
  5. Post procedure the patient will use agents that repair DNA; stimulate the exogenous stem cells; improve mitochondrial function; enhance brain metabolism; stimulate nerve cell function.
  6. Patients will be followed by regular appointments either at our outpatient clinic or by webcam telemedicine. Our physicians will furnish the patients with a copy of our treatments and will cooperate with their private physicians.
