Recently, regenerative medicine has received boosts from stem cell research that may be used in a wide variety of fields, including obesity and weight loss, reconstructive and cosmetic surgery using fat transplantation as well as stem cells used for breast implants. Another recent development was the use of stem cells activated by lasers to help treat COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), ranked as the 4th leading cause of death in the U.S.

New stem cell treatments, research and technologies have followed Australian and French researchers as they attempt to develop stem cell delivery systems such as stem cell capsules that may help treat orthopedic issues such as broken bones, while nearly 160 stem-cell based clinical trials are under way in the fields of cardiology, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, spinal cord injuries, stroke, immune, ophthalmic and peripheral artery disease, just to name a few.

A large number of these stem cell clinical trials are in Phase II and Phase III trials, and technologies that enable autologous (transplants of a patient’s own tissues) stemm cell therapies lead the stem cell transplantations for stem cell treatments of bone marrow disease processes, while the other majority of stem cells under study were focusing on cardiovascular disease processes including PAD (peripheral artery disease), stroke and cardiac or heart disease.

Facilities such as EmCell, located in Kiev, Ukraine, offer treatments and therapies for a variety of medical conditions, and stem cell research and development facilities in Latin America like American Stem Cell in Quinto, Ecuador also offer treatments, and hope, to many.

Stem cell clinical trials are under way in the U.S. and Europe, within Germany and Spain. From treatment of fractures to treatments for Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative disease processes, stem cell technologies and research are leading the charge for treatments and cures.

A new year is on the way, encouraging many individuals to make changes in their lives. Such changes are personal, though they may affect dozens of family and friends. Individuals suffering from any type of addiction, such as prescription or street drug, alcohol, or behaviors such as phobias, panic disorders or general anxiety disorders (GAD) may benefit from a variety of rehab or rehabilitation treatments and therapies.

Physical rehabilitation is designed for individuals suffering from injuries such as fractures, stroke, amputations, spinal cord damage or dysfunction, cardiac conditions, and any other illness or injury that reduces mobility and function. The goal of physical rehabilitation is to increase range of motion, mobility, function and quality of life.

Emotional rehabilitation may be considered a form of psychiatric or psychotherapies, designed to help individuals overcome abuse, fears, and phobias.

Drug addiction rehabilitation and alcoholism rehabilitation begin with the process of detoxification, which basically reads the body of harmful and toxic substances before new lifestyle, habits and issues can be dealt with through group, drive it, or exposure type rehabilitative procedures, treatments and programs.

International facilities such as Terme Selce, Croatia, and Dr. Vorobiev’s Russian Rehab Clinic have helped individuals overcome a variety of addictive behaviors, as the Florence Nightingale Hospital in Turkey.

Research has shown that medical tourism, or the desire to travel internationally and across borders for health reasons has become a viable alternative for the treatment and care of the specialized health issues experienced by this group of people from around the world.

American boomers needing dental care and prescriptions often travel south of the border into Mexico or even as far as Brazil, Argentina, and Costa Rica for their needs. Dental procedures as well as medications in Latin American countries is less than half of what comparable procedures and medications cost in the United States.

 

Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia are popular destinations for those needing hip or knee replacement surgeries. Hungry and Poland are popular for their for dental and cosmetic procedures (at great savings).

 

Hospitals in South America or Asia generally cost one half of the price charged in the United States and Europe. Cardiac and orthopedic surgeries performed in India can save health travelers nearly $20,000 or more with one surgical procedure.

 

The most common afflictions and conditions experienced by boomers today are:

 

·        Kidney disease

·        Arterial sclerosis

·        Osteoporosis

·        Breast, lung, and colon cancer

·        Stroke

·        Joint Complaints: bursitis, arthritis, tendonitis
