Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic disease which causes insufficient insulin production or low sensitivity to insulin. Prolonged periods of high sugar levels in the blood can damage many areas of the body, including the eyes, kidney, feet, etc.
Despite conventional treatment of diabetes by medications or insulin injections, there are high incidences of diabetic complications. Current treatment should be continued with your physician when integrative therapies are availed. Integrative therapies are used in adjunct to standard treatments.
Obesity is a complex disease involving an excessive amount of body fat. It is often multifactorial, based on both genetic and behavioral factors. It is a medical problem that increases your risk of other diseases and health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and certain cancers.
Despite a conventional diet and exercise regimen, many people are unable to tackle obesity and its complications. Integrative therapy is a multiprong approach towards weight mangement and prevention of complications.
Osteoarthritis is a joint inflammation that results from cartilage degeneration. Osteoarthritis can be caused by aging, heredity, and injury from trauma or disease. The primary treatment is advised by your orthopedic surgeon or rheumatologist . However integrated treatment can slow down the progression and give symptomatic relief.
Menopause is the process through which a woman ceases to be fertile or menstruate. It is a normal part of life and is not considered a disease. But menopause causes lot of discomfort and increases risk of developing diseases such as hypertension, heart disease, cancer etc.The primary management is as advised by a gynecologist. However Integrative treatment may help in giving symptomatic relief.
Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of a disease. A psychosomatic disorder involves both the body and mind. These diseases have physical symptoms originating from mental or emotional issues. When these psychological entities are not perceived properly, it may result in somatic disease.
Standard treatment with your physician or psychiatrist should be considered. Integrative therapy can be added to improve both physical and mental symptoms.
Cancer is an abnormal division of cells without control and can invade nearby tissues. Cancer cells can also spread to other parts of the body through the blood and lymph systems.
The primary treatment of cancer includes a combination of surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy. Despite the best medical treatment cancer can reoccur. Also patients become debilitated post treatment. The integrative therapies are not a cure for cancer but an attempt to improve the overall quality of life of the patient and possibly prevent the re-occurrence.
Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impaired social interaction, verbal and non-verbal communication, and restricted and repetitive behavior, hyperactivity.
In the past the only available treatment for autism was rehabilitation and medicine for relieving symptoms of hyperactivity, etc. However stemcell therapy has shown to reverse the bran hypometabolism in autism to bring significant improvements. We believe that combining neurorehab with stemcell therapy along with integrative therapies will further enhance the overall results.
Cerebral palsy, is a neurodevelopemental disorder, which is caused by any event leading to the damage to brain around the time of birth. The impact ranges from mild physical disability to very severe disability along with co morbid mental retardation.
Stem cell therapy combined with neurorehab has brought about good improvements in CP children. Adding the integrated therapies is believed to further enhance the overall results.
Mental retardation / Intellectual disability (ID) is a generalized neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by significantly impaired intellectual and adaptive functioning with inability to perform daily activities. Conventional treatment includes cognitive therapies which still leaves children with high disability.
Stem cell therapy, neurorehabilitation and integrative therapies together helps in improving the patient’s overall condition.
Muscular dystrophy (MD) is genetic disorder which causes the muscles in the body to gradually weaken and eventually stop working. It is a progressively deteriorating disorder, which leads to death, sometimes, as early as 20 years of age.
The standard treatment of muscular dystrophy includes rehabilitation and medicines such as steroids. Recent research have shown that stem cell therapy may slow down the disease progression and reduce symptoms. Integrative therapy when combined with standard treatment and stem cell therapy may augment the overall results and provide symptomatic relief.
An injury to the spinal cord can happen due to trauma (such as road traffic accident, fall from a height, etc.) or due to non traumatic conditions (spinal tumor or infection of the spine). Depending on the level of the injury, a person can be rendered paralysed below the neck in a cervical cord injury (quadriplegia) or below chest / waist in a thoracic / dorsal cord injury (paraplegia) along with loss of bladder and bowel continence.
In acute cases , the surgery for Spinal cord injury repairs the bony spune but cannot repair the spinal cord. Current option available for chronic spinal cord injury cases is only neurorehabilitation . Stemcell therapy has emerged as treatment option to improve the functionality by repairing the spinal cord damage. Integrative therapy when combined with rehab, surgery and stemcell can further improve the quality of life by improving the bowel and bladder functions.
Stroke is a leading cause of disability in the world. It causes permanent damage of the brain functions which might result in inability to move limbs, vision problem, speech problems, altered sensations or cognitive impairments. Stroke can be of two types, Ischemic or Hemorrhagic.
In acute stroke, treatment should be followed as advised by your neurologist or neurosurgeon. In chronic stage, the standard treatment is medicines and rehab. Despite conventional treatment many patients are left with significant disabilities. Stem cell therapy when added can achieve cellular repair at the stroke region of the brain. Integrative therapies when combined with medicine, rehab and stem cells may give further symptomatic relief and imoprove neurological functions and quality of life of the patient.
Brain damage sustained due to trauma can be very devastating, leading to physical disability, loss of function, amnesia, loss of cognitive function and understanding. This often leaves a permanent disability and renders a person completely dependent on this caretaker for all activities.
Head injury is treated by surgical and medical treatment which stabilizes the patient’s condition. Rehabilitation can offer symptomatic improvement. Stem cell therapy can repair the brain damage and give significant improvement in physical mental and emotional issues. Integrative therapy combined with standard treatment along with stem cell therapy may further improve functional independence and quality of life.
A motor neuron disease is a neurological disorder that selectively affect motor neurons, the cells that control voluntary muscle activity including speaking, walking, swallowing, and general movement of the body. They are neurodegenerative in nature and cause increasing disability and eventually death.
Medical and rehabilitation treatment for MND can only give symptomatic management but can not alter the disease progression. Research has shown stem cell therapy with rehabilitation may slow down or halt the disease progression in MND. Integrative therapy in not a cure for MND but along with medicines and stem cell and rehabilitation may slow down or halt the disease progression with reversal of symptoms to improve quality of life.
Cerebellar Ataxia, Cerebral Atrophy, Spino Cerebellar Ataxia, Multiple System Atrophy, Dementia Neuro degenerative disorders are being treated for symptomatic relief by medication and rehabilitation therapies. But none of them can halt or reverse the disease progression. Stem cell therapy has shown symptomatic improvement and slowing of disease progression. Integrative therapy when combines with medication, rehabilitation and stem cell may further enhance the recovery by altering disease progression and symptomatic relief. Integrative therapies is used as supplemental or adjuvant treatment modality.
