When asked how he survived over a decade of debilitating Lyme symptoms before his diagnosis and treatment, Didier Cohen credits adrenaline. “It’s just the pressure,” he says. “I had a lot of people counting on me. You’re just gonna go, go, go until the wheels fall off.” “Go, go, go” is a pretty good description of Cohen’s career to date. Raised in the Los Angeles area, he describes himself as a rebellious kid who wasn’t a good fit for a conventional life. Kicked out of school early, and motivated by an abiding love for music — “it was all I really cared about” — he jumped straight into the famously dog-eat-dog world of the music industry in the early oughts. He was working as an A&R rep for some of the most well-known acts of the time when he felt that old rebelliousness taking hold again. A representative of Wilhelmina, an international modeling agency, scouted him off the street, and he smelled opportunity.

“I never wanted to model,” he says. “I always thought it would be a stepping-stone to other things.” He was proven right when, four months later, Wilhelmina sent him to Australia to build his portfolio. He scored a high-profile campaign with supermodel Miranda Kerr, and TV-presenting gigs and appearances on Australia’s Next Top Model quickly followed. But Cohen’s first love, music, still had his heart. He signed with Sony Australia and worked as a DJ, and when he got tired of playing other people’s music, he decided to make his own.
It was a thrilling, star-studded dream of a life. Or it would have been, if not for the fact that Cohen’s health was gradually failing him. Starting in 2007, he began to be plagued with crippling fatigue, peripheral numbness and digestive problems that he attributed to allergies at first. Elimination diets didn’t work. And simple exhaustion didn’t explain the symptoms that, over time, began to take a serious toll. “My fiancée knew I was sick, my whole team knew I was sick.” Cohen ignored his symptoms as much as he could. When he did see doctors, they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with him — and he was never tested for Lyme disease, because conventional wisdom holds that Lyme doesn’t exist in Australia. “When I came home to America to work on my album,” Cohen says, “the adrenaline” — which had been keeping him afloat — “stopped.” Making his own record had been his dream. But when he finally got into the studio, his back gave out. Unable to work — or even sit or stand — he sought out his family’s doctor, who mentioned the possibility that Cohen might have Lyme. He says, “I think I was in serious denial.” He didn’t remember being bitten by a tick, and never got a bull’s-eye rash. But to Cohen’s shock, the tests came back positive. He was referred to a specialist, who loaded him up with an array of antibiotics and not much else in the way of support — and the treatment almost seemed worse than the disease. Suffering from agonizing pain and seizing regularly, Cohen says “I’ve never felt worse in my life. And I know so many people who are in the same boat for years.”
Unable to even get out of bed and still grappling with his diagnosis, he wasn’t particularly interested in hearing anyone’s opinion about his health. But his disappearance from public life didn’t go unnoticed, and when he came out in the media as a Lyme sufferer, a friend — a former Infusio patient — tracked him down. Following her recommendation, and his family’s research, Cohen decided he had nothing to lose. In early 2018, “I was basically carried into Infusio. [I decided] ‘I’m just gonna do this.'” That was a Friday. He started treatment the following Monday morning, and he already knew Infusio would be different. “When I went on the website and saw Phil [Battiade] speak about what the Infusio treatment was — it’s just very logical, and made complete sense.” The Infusio concept, with its empasis on bringing a damaged immune system back into balance so it can function correctly, resonated with Cohen. And Infusio felt like a safe place, where practitioners spoke to him on a human level. “We were all in it together. That was an amazing start to my treatment. It helped me immensely. It was the most liberating feeling to think ‘Every moment in this place, I’m getting better.’ And everyone around you at Infusio, they want you to be better. My mind was in such a positive state that [I knew] my body was going to heal. And every single day, I got better. Every single day.”
Months after his initial treatment at Infusio, Cohen says he’s the healthiest he’s been in a decade. His symptoms are gone, and almost more importantly, he’s creatively inspired and excited about life again. “I’ve never been so grateful to one program for literally giving me my life back.” But he’s also careful to emphasize his own role in his recovery, and the necessity of making the conscious decision to reclaim his health. “I’ve learned that there’s no way your physical body can get better if your brain is telling your body you’re sick. Your brain and your body aren’t two different mechanisms, they’re one.” Cohen’s resolve, discipline and rebellious spirit, in tandem with Infusio’s healing environment and cutting-edge treatments, have given him a new lease on life. “I thought I was never going to be in the studio ever again. Ever. I thought, ‘what am I going to do with the rest of my life?’ Now, I’m in my studio. I’m working every single day. But my biggest thing is spreading my message, spreading awareness and telling people with Lyme that it’s not over. No matter how crazy your journey’s been, it can always get better.” The post Lyme Success Stories: Didier Cohen appeared first on Infusio. from https://www.infusio.org/blog/didier-cohen-lyme-disease-treatment-infusio/

Stem cells first came to the attention of the general public some years ago, when a political battle over federal funding of embryonic stem cell lines raised temperatures across the political spectrum. Media coverage focused on the drama of polarized politics even then, and many people still don’t know exactly what stem cells are, where they come from, and how they work. Do they have something to do with human cloning? Abortion? Dolly the sheep? A magical, “Star Trek”-style panacea, capable of curing all ills of man or beast? It turns out that stem cells are pretty magical, in their own way. Less dramatic than replicators and disease-destroying handheld laser scanners perhaps, but they contain vast potential for revolutionizing how we address a huge range of health issues, today and in the future. Patients facing degenerative illnesses can now choose from a variety of stem cell treatments that may promise the moon – but in order to determine what approach is best, we first have to understand the role of stem cells, their sources, and how health practitioners put them to work for us.
What are Stem Cells?In a nutshell, stem cells are cells that can transform into other cells. They’re present in all multicellular organisms, including humans at all stages of development. In medicine, stem cells can be used to repair and replace tissue that has been damaged by any number of illnesses, as well as trauma and simple aging. Critical differences, essential to patients, lie in where stem cells are found.
Where Do Stem Cells Come From?Embryonic Stem CellsThis is the source that caused so much controversy when stem cells first appeared on the political scene. Embryonic stem cells are derived from blastocysts – human embryos only a few days old, usually the result of IVF (in-vitro fertilization), and donated by IVF patients with informed consent. Embryonic stem cells are extremely potent, because their “job” is to develop into all the cells necessary to create a complete human body. However, there are numerous drawbacks to their use, including the development of tumors called teratomas. Embryonic cells must be cultured, an expensive process that can take a considerable amount of time. Patients may have moral concerns about the medical use of human embryos. And ongoing clinical research is still determining how best to deploy these “wildcard” cells. On a related note, patients may run across mention of induced pluripotent stem cells – iPSCS – which are similar to embryonic stem cells and derived from the patient’s own skin. However, the sourcing process still requires use of a blastocyst, and involves the same risks and ethical quandaries.
Placental and Cord Blood Stem CellsHarvested from the umbilical cords and placentas of healthy newborns, these stem cells appear to be most effective in combating blood and circulatory disorders. Patients receiving stem cell transplants from placental or cord blood will need to be a “match” for the donor, as if they were receiving a transplanted organ
Live Cell TherapyLive Cell Therapy is an advanced method of deriving stem cells from animals by removing animal markers from the cells. This approach makes it safe to use on humans as opposed to fresh cell therapy which holds risks of transferring disease to humans. Sheep stem cells derived from fetal lambs have been singled out as dangerous. The Centers for Disease Control says “baaaaah” to this practice, because there are numerous diseases, including Q fever, that are transmissible between sheep and humans.
Blood Stem CellsAlso known by a tongue twister name, hematopoietic stem cells. Found in the patient’s own blood and bone marrow, these stem cells can differentiate into the building blocks of blood, and may be an important consideration in treating immune, blood and circulatory disorders, without the compatibility problems associated with cord blood.
Adipose Stem CellsThese are derived from the patient’s own fat stores, via minor, minimally invasive liposuction. They can differentiate into a wide range of tissue, including bone, cartilage, nerves and muscle among many others, and since they are mature, there’s no risk of the chaotic replication sometimes associated with embryonic cells. They simply remain dormant until they find tissues that need to be repaired and replaced. Previously, bone marrow was the preferred source for this type of cell, but new research indicates that they occur in higher concentrations in fat, and can be easily harvested without the painful, complicated procedure necessary to extract bone marrow. Adipose stem cell treatments can be considerably less expensive than other methods. And since they come from the patient’s own body, he or she won’t have to worry about compatibility or rejection.
The Infusio ApproachInfusio’s treatment protocol for Lyme disease and other degenerative conditions involves Stromal Vascular Fraction – an extract from the patient’s own fat. It contains those versatile, user-friendly adipose-derived stem cells, along with an array of other beneficial cells – including blood stem cells –and supportive growth factors. When administered, SVF triggers a systemic healing response that activates the body’s own capacity to rebuild itself. It’s not an instant remedy straight out of science fiction, but our bodies are remarkable, and they want to heal. Sometimes, they just need a little help. Unlike other stem cell therapy programs, which can involve untried technologies – some of which are banned in the United States, or haven’t been adequately studied in the contexts in which they’re applied, or may even cause tumor growth among other serious problems – SVF has been extensively tested and proven safe to use over many years. And unlike other medical practices that sell stem cell treatments, Infusio offers a comprehensive, long-term integrative program that supports the whole patient, in order to optimize cell terrain and allow those remarkable stem cells to do the work they were created for.

Liz shares her Lyme Disease experience and how she was able to find hope and recovery from her debilitating symptoms. Liz’s battle with Lyme disease began in 2012. She was extremely active, had a great job, and was living a full, healthy life until one day, when she left a workout class feeling terrible. She knew something was wrong. She continued to experience excruciating Lyme symptoms and went undiagnosed for 3 years. Liz found out about Infusio through a friend who had amazing results from her Lyme treatment and began her own treatment at the Frankfurt clinic of Infusio in 2018. She says she knew from the first day at Infusio that this was the right fix. She could relax and begin her healing journey. After having seen countless doctors in New York and going undiagnosed for so long, it was refreshing to have a team of experts helping her recover. “Dr. Bijan and the staff really care about your well-being and health concerns, and provide much more than physical support, it’s spiritual, mental, and emotional support.” Now that Liz is feeling healthier and is on the road to recovery, she is focused on starting a family with her husband. The couple has been trying to get pregnant for a long time and they were both very excited to hear that Infusio also has a fertility program. Liz and her husband will do the Infusio fertility program to make sure their bodies are well balanced and in optimum condition. They want to be proactive and make the right health choices to make ensure there aren’t any issues having healthy children. The post Lyme Disease Stories: Liz appeared first on Infusio. from https://www.infusio.org/blog/chronic-lyme-disease-stories-liz/ The immune system is the human body’s most important line of defense against the many infection-causing pathogens that we encounter every day. White blood cells, originating from stem cells in our bone marrow, patrol the body like microscopic soldiers, finding and destroying hostile organisms like bacteria, parasites and viruses. But what happens if the immune system fails? In some cases, a weakened immune response will simply miss the invading forces, allowing them to proliferate and make us sick. In others, however, the immune system may mistake the body’s own cells for the pathogens it’s trying to destroy, causing a host of symptoms ranging from irritating to life-threatening. When this occurs, the result is known as autoimmune disease. The causes of autoimmune disease are enigmatic and poorly- understood. These illnesses appear to run in families, indicating a genetic origin, and some are found more frequently in certain genders and ethnic groups. Exposure to environmental toxins, certain drugs, and some bacterial infections may increase the risk of developing autoimmune problems over time.
Types of Autoimmune DiseaseMore than 80 different diseases can occur as a result of the immune system mistakenly attacking healthy tissue. The most frequent symptom of autoimmune conditions is inflammation, which causes redness, pain and swelling, and inhibits proper functioning of certain parts of the body. Patients may experience “flare-ups”, as well as periods where symptoms are less noticeable. Common autoimmune diseases include: Systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus) – The joints, lungs, kidneys, central nervous system and blood cells are affected, causing pain, skin lesions and extreme fatigue, among many other symptoms. Hashimoto’s thyroiditis – The immune system attacks the thyroid gland, causing low levels of thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism). Symptoms develop gradually, and include fatigue, depression, hair loss and weight gain. Psoriasis – An overactive immune response causes skin cells to reproduce rapidly, creating unsightly, uncomfortable and sometimes disfiguring plaques. Graves’ disease – The immune system stimulates the thyroid to produce excessive amounts of thyroid hormone (hyperthyroidism). Symptoms include bulging eyes, excessive weight loss, nervousness and rapid heart rate. Type 1 diabetes – When the immune system attacks the pancreas, it becomes unable to produce insulin. Type 1 diabetics require insulin injections to survive. Because many more, less well-known autoimmune diseases exist beyond the “big names”, and because symptoms of autoimmune dysfunction frequently mimic other conditions, misdiagnosis is unfortunately common. Patients sometimes seek appropriate treatment for years without success – a significant challenge for people already dealing with challenging illnesses.
Treatment – Traditional Approaches and New FrontiersAutoimmune disorders impact many different bodily systems. Treatments vary depending on which parts of the body are most affected. Patients are often prescribed anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive drugs, such as steroids, to control the immune system’s abnormal reaction. These therapies are valuable, but may not promote remission in all patients – and managing symptoms alone doesn’t address the root causes. Fortunately, new research and technology have opened the door for novel approaches that can repair and restore damaged tissues and organ structures, modulating immune response and promoting healthy functioning throughout the body. One such option is stem cell-based therapies, which offer exciting avenues for innovative treatments – and offer cures – for autoimmune disorders. Stem cells are undifferentiated cells with the potential to develop into many other kinds of cells. They play a critical role in regulating body function and replacing tissues that have been compromised via environmental toxins, infection, or genetic factors. In stem cell therapy, the patient’s own cells are minimal-invasively harvested and then reintroduced. Other cellular therapies are used to rejuvenate the function of the thymus gland also known as thymus therapy, which modulates the immune system. These therapies, in combination with individualized support protocols to reduce inflammation and stimulate stem cell mobilization, encourage the body to repair itself on a foundational level, establishing a healthy immune response and cell to cell communication. In addition, overall wellness is critical to successful treatment. Adequate nutrition, targeted supplements, and supervised dietary changes can have a positive effect on many symptoms, as the body works to heal. Psychological stress has been implicated in the development of autoimmune disease, and managing autoimmune disease is stressful – a vicious cycle that can be broken with quality mental health support, and close attention to the vital connections between body and mind. A comprehensive approach – individually targeted, to support the whole patient – is key to battling autoimmune disease, and achieving good health for life. Infusio is a unique, multi-level approach to healing, designed by British naturopath Philip Battiade for the treatment of chronic degenerative illnesses such as Lyme disease, autoimmune disorders, neurological disorders and cancer. The framework of the Infusio Concept consists of the Five Steps To Health, a foundational system that helps determine each patient’s individual needs and then optimizes their health. Integrating the best of traditional European medicine, alternative medicine and cutting-edge science, offering services ranging from Bioenergetics to Stem Cell Therapy and rejuvenating spa treatments, Infusio provides a 360° individualized approach to health.

Karen shares her experience battling cancer and finally finding hope at Infusio. Karen had stage IIIB cervical cancer which metastasized into Karen’s Lungs. When her cancer journey started, she was doing chemotherapy and radiation. After 35 high dose radiation treatments, which took a major toll on her body both physically and mentally, she lost hope. Karen says it was extremely hard on her and there were times during the chemo treatment when she didn’t know whether she would make it through. With a 10% success rate, Karen wanted to find other cancer treatment options. Karen found Infusio through the documentary ‘Cancer Can Be Killed’. She enrolled in the program in early 2018. She says she found hope in Infusio because of the special care, individualized treatment, mind body medicine, cutting edge treatments, the very accommodating staff and spa like environment. Stay tuned for more updates on Karen’s Cancer Recovery story.

The post Cancer Stories of Hope: Karen appeared first on Infusio. from https://www.infusio.org/blog/chronic-lyme-disease-stories-karen/ The Chronic Lyme Disease EpidemicUntil recently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stated that approximately 30,000 cases of Lyme disease were reported each year. However, in September 2015, the CDC revised their estimates, indicating that more than 329,000 new cases were contracted annually in the US — an increase of up to 10 times what was previously believed. Populations of the ticks that transmit the disease continue to grow and spread, and the number of victims increases. Lyme is now considered an epidemic in more than 15 states. Healthcare practitioners report increased virulence in the disease, and some speculate that symptoms are amplified by diverse factors such as environmental mold, electromagnetic fields produced by wireless systems and the microwave radiation from mobile phones, general immune deficiencies caused by chronic problems such as poor dental health, and the nutrients missing in our diet. Some doctors also believe that Lyme provides a hospitable environment for opportunistic bacteria that invade the body and choose the weakest areas to survive for as long as possible. And patients may still suffer from symptoms even following chronic lyme disease treatment — a phenomenon the CDC calls PTLDS (Post-Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome). Symptoms can include diffuse pain, difficulty concentrating, shallow breathing, incapacitating fatigue, seizures and brief bouts of paralysis. Intense inflammation and difficulty controlling it can cause an autoimmune reaction, as with Lyme arthritis. Lyme disease remains a mysterious, confounding and elusive illness, difficult to diagnose and presenting a range of debilitating symptoms. More funding is needed for the extensive research necessary to develop improved diagnostic testing and comprehensive treatment options. Patients’ testimonials also affirm that the road to recovery can be long and difficult, even after the initial infection is resolved. Despite these challenges, there is no reason to lose hope. If you’re facing the struggle of living with Lyme, you are not alone. Treatment protocols are being refined by expert professionals who work tirelessly to provide patients with the help they need. There is also a worldwide Lyme community, online and off, that can provide support and understanding. The battle can be won with the right team around you, which must involve skilled medical practitioners who are familiar with Lyme and its challenges. Living with Lyme DiseaseLyme disease is a bacterial infection caused by the bite of the black-legged tick. Borrelia burgdorferi, the most common Lyme bacteria, is an organism with a remarkable ability to mask its presence, so that it won’t be attacked by the immune system. When presented with an immune response, it repeatedly changes its expression and genetic appearance to thwart the attack, so the immune system can’t keep up. In addition, each tick carries an array of microorganisms including viruses, parasites and sometimes fungi. Each tick bite is as unique as a fingerprint. This may account for the array of different symptoms reported by patients, which can include:
Battling Lyme DiseaseThe first challenge is to find a Lyme Literate Medical Doctor (LLMD). Patients often go to great lengths to navigate treatment options and connect with practitioners who understand their needs. They must learn to manage naturopaths, nutritionists, physical therapists, mental health counselors, and a wide range of other specialists in the quest for relief from the symptoms and consequences of Lyme. They may even travel abroad, since the most compelling research regarding the treatment of Lyme has been conducted overseas. However, the popularity of innovative scholarship and treatments, such as the Klinghardt and Jemsek protocols, means that comprehensive therapy plans are becoming available closer to home. Which treatment to choose? The default recommendation of an antibiotic regimen may not have the desired effect. Depending on type, stage and exposure to Lyme disease, the results of antibiotic treatments vary, may only provide benefits in the short term, and sometimes cause more harm than good. The complexity of the disease requires a comprehensive treatment approach that addresses and supports the body’s own resources, in addition to attacking the infection itself. Ensuring overall wellness is vital to the fight against Lyme. Any medical treatment, no matter how high-tech and cutting-edge, will not have the desired effect unless the patient is otherwise in the best possible health. Proper nutrition is necessary to support healthy gut flora, and provide cells with nutrients and basic building blocks so they can function correctly. Supplements may be required to address deficiencies. Professional guidance is strongly recommended when implementing any dietary change or supplemental regimen. Alternative treatments include supplement protocols, detox regimens, oxygen therapies and natural anti-microbial treatments. Stem cell therapies, an exciting and innovative option for repairing and replacing damaged tissues, have become more widely accessible. Mental health support is vital, to combat the stress and anxiety that may arise from being a warrior for one’s own wellbeing. And a foundational approach to treatment – one that emphasizes changing the environment within the body, to make optimal health more achievable – has been shown to be very effective in combating not only active Lyme infection, but also its lingering aftermath. Bottom line: The human immune system and its ability to heal are among nature’s most sophisticated and complex designs, and any outside interventions should always support and not disrupt that healing process. There’s no “one size fits all” – everyone’s case is different. Therefore, once you have found your trusted practitioner, have him or her provide you with a personalized road map of treatments and supplements, ideally employing the best methods of both traditional and alternative medicine, while remaining as non-toxic as possible and as non-invasive as possible. Does Lyme disease stay with you for life?Yes and no. The answer to this question depends on the duration of the infection prior to treatment, and on the vast array of complex activity within a body affected by Lyme. But it also depends on you. Being vigilant and taking care of yourself conscientiously goes a long way towards living symptom-free for long periods of time, if not for the rest of your life. Many Lyme patients reported that the healing phase from tick-borne disease took them up to 12 months or more. Patients who opt for cellular therapies and foundational medicine methods have found that the reward of a sustainable result and a therapy approach that syncs with the body’s own healing process comes with the downside of slow recovery. During the recovery phase it is recommended that patients manage symptoms with home remedies and a natural supplement regimen, to control histamine reaction, inflammation, sleeping disorders, pain ‘flare ups’ and so forth. Again, it is also very important to care for oneself in a broader sense, with special attention to proper nutrition, mental health care, a sustainable exercise program, and community support. Lyme is a debilitating disease, but it need not be a life sentence. Can you live a normal life with Lyme Disease?What do patients say? Fontaine, a “Lyme warrior”, says the following: “Yes, for the most part. But Lyme is a chronic, degenerative condition — a multisystem inflammatory attack that must be intermittently battled on myriad fronts. There will be times of normality and times of distress. Peaks and valleys. It’s critically important, then, that you guard your well-being and take good care of your body. Prioritize this and don’t feel self-indulgent.” Another Lyme patient said: “Think of food as medicine. Become better-informed in this regard, and always be mindful of what you eat. Poor diet, stress and a sedentary lifestyle can wreak havoc. And being attentive to mental health is every bit as important. Be kind to yourself and try to cultivate patience. Attitude and emotions color everything.” Andrea, who has been battling Lyme for over a decade, says: “Chronic illness can be highly inconsistent symptoms-wise. Symptoms also vary from patient to patient and therefore can be additionally stressful. Recognizing this will help you move through difficult episodes and forward on your path to healing. I have started writing a blog to track and share my experience. That way I can inform, comfort, and help other ‘Lymies’ in the online community. I also know of many that keep a private journal, which may be therapeutic in your case. I think, above all, its important not to isolate yourself.” These patient experiences show the drastic impact Lyme can have on one’s life. Living with Lyme affects the way you live your life, your sleeping and eating habits, and sensitivity to your body’s symptoms. It can also affect you emotionally, and require a strong mental makeup to continue coping with the rollercoaster of symptoms. Despite these obstacles, there is no reason to lose hope. The battle against Lyme can eventually be won, with care, courage and the right support group around you, which must involve skilled medical practitioners who are familiar with Lyme and its many challenges. Infusio is a unique, multi-level spproach to healing, designed by British naturopath Philip Battiade for the treatment of chronic degenerative illnesses such as Lyme Disease, autoimmune disorders, neurological disorders and cancer.

SVF is a newer form of stem cell therapy that is made up of stem cells harvested from adipose tissue (fat) found in our bodies. What’s exciting about Stromal vascular fraction is that it offers renewed hope for people who suffer from a wide range of inflammatory and degenerative diseases. If you or someone you know has ever struggled with an inflammatory or degenerative condition, you know the impact it has on quality of life. Because SVF corrects the underlying imbalance that causes disease rather than only the symptoms of the disease, the result is a true cure rather than simply an absence of symptoms. Components of Stromal Vascular FractionNaturally occurring stem cells in your adipose tissue make up the main component of Stromal vascular fraction. Also contained within SVF are powerful healing properties derived from the following:
A growth factor is a powerful messenger in your body that sends signals to your cells that trigger them to perform various functions. Since Stromal vascular fraction contains growth factors, it has the ability to decrease the inflammation present in many diseases in addition to causing the growth and specialization of cells. Perhaps the Most Effective Use of Stem Cells YetSome of the specific diseases and types of chronic pain that benefit from SVF include:
Patients who suffer with these health challenges have usually tried conventional drug therapy or physical therapy with no real improvement. In many cases, they only consider SVF after other doctors tell them there is nothing more they can do. Systemic Regulation vs. Cellular RepairOne major way Stromal vascular fraction differs from other alternative medical treatments is that it has the ability to regulate your body’s systems so they behave in a normal fashion going forward. With typical stem cell treatment, the main focus is on cell repair. While still an effective strategy, regulating defective cells through SVF goes beyond the presenting illness or injury to improve age-related decline of the cells. It’s no wonder that people consider it a magic juice like no other! In an August 2016 report, the United States National Institutes of Health reported that a clinical trial is currently underway to test the effectiveness of Stromal vascular fraction to treat both male and female pattern baldness. The official title of the trial is Biocellular Regenerative Therapy in Hair Loss. In this case, SVF works by stimulating the patient’s dormant hair follicles to produce healthy hair strands once again. This is not merely a cosmetic use of the SVF since patients who have lost their hair to chemotherapy can use it as well. Improved Outcomes through Patient OptimizationSVF is a form of evidence-based regenerative medicine that reduces total treatment time and improves the quality of life for patients with chronic pain and disease. It accomplishes this though system regulation and getting to the root cause of the health issue. In order for this to occur, it’s necessary to optimize your health and immune system first. Doctors in the Infusio network accomplish this by modulating the immune system, detoxing your body and substituting any deficiencies prior to you beginning SVF treatment. By doing so, it increases the quality of your stem cells and your body’s ability to self-regulate. Taking these steps also speeds up your healing to create an optimal impact for SVF when introduced into your body.

Transcript: Hi everyone. I’m Lisa I’m from Fort Collins, Colorado, and I am here for the ACT treatment. I am nine months post stem cells, March 8th and I just want to share a little bit of my story with you. When I was 16, I was bit by a tick I believe in the Sierra Nevadas in California as a 16 year old. I went back to high school and around that same time I developed insomnia and went from 115 pounds to 190 pounds under a year. I was a cheerleader and a gymnast, and no one knew what was wrong with me. My life was just very, very difficult around that time. I actually wasn’t diagnosed with Lyme Disease for about ten more years, and after about that time I was hospitalized for pancreatitis and life was just very difficult I couldn’t eat anything so we were trying to figure out what to do and I did IV antibiotics for a year and a half I had a PICC line in and I felt like I was dying. I went to Switzerland for a biological medicine and that’s where they found out that I had something else wrong with me. They were super helpful over there but I was just taking medicine all the time, taking supplements 24/7. I didn’t really have a life because it just revolved around that. So I told myself I had one more treatment left in me, and I researched and I found Infusio stem cells that was last June. It has been an amazing journey, it has definitely been a roller coaster up and down but all of my ups are always higher than the last up, any time I have a down. I am thrilled to be back here for a ACT I really recommend anybody look into stem cells and Infusio.
