"After years of having aching arthritis in my right shoulder, about 4 years ago the pain changed in character, becoming much more piercing and intense. I went to chiropractors for treatments but relief was only temporary. The pain continued to get worse and immobilized my arm to the point I couldn’t lift a glass. The pain became constant, around the clock, and continued to get so strong, I seriously considered ending my life. However, as I researched viable alternatives, stem cells seemed worth pursuing. At first, I tried an injection called PRP, but the doctor told me my cartilage was gone, so it wouldn’t help for long, and it helped reduce my pain for only two weeks. I needed a real stem cell injection to rebuild my cartilage. When I found Dr. Spence, with his advanced umbilical cord stem cell therapy, it seemed even better than getting surgery and extracting my own stem cells, so I got a simple shot in my shoulder. Within the next 24 hours, I started feeling a softening of the pain and within two weeks my arm felt normal, as if I had nothing wrong with it. It’s been that way now for several months. It’s actually now better than my left shoulder, and I am considering having Dr Spence inject that one also".
