A short video (YouTube) featuring Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter describing autologous musculoskeletal stem cell treatments and contrasting them with lab-cultured or systemic stem cell approaches. He explains that his practice does not perform cell culture but harvests bone-marrow-derived stem cells for focused, local musculoskeletal treatment; he mentions whole-body/stem cell infusions exist but is not detailed on them.
We don't do cell culture in our office because we do autologous musculoskeletal. So this is where they take your stem cells. They culture them up. They can grow more. We get plenty by doing a harvest from your bone marrow because we're treating focused small areas. Sometimes they're treating like they're doing whole body stem cell stuff. Like, there's some treatments for, like, Ms. Where they're doing stem cell infusions. Like, it's like a blood transfusion almost. I don't know near enough about it. There's some really cool other applications in musculoskeletal applications for stem cell. It's just a really neat science.
