WHAT IS MOTOR NEURON DISEASE?

Motor Neuron Disease is caused by damaged motor neuron cells, which control all our voluntary movements. It affects between 1 and 5 in 100,000 people, taking a huge toll on patients as well as their families and loved ones. Simple activities become major tasks for patients, while their caregivers go through immense stress every day.
However, the good news is that early intervention shows positive results and allows patients to gain independence and improve their quality of life. That's why our goal at Meditourz is to connect you with highly experienced specialists who can provide the best treatments, like Autologous Stem Cell Therapy, helping patients regain control of their lives.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF MOTOR NEURON DISEASE?

Gradually, patients suffering from Motor Neuron Disease lose control of even the simplest actions:

  • Muscles become stiff, twitchy or overactive.
  • Any voluntary motion becomes difficult to control.
  • Slowly, muscles degrade and start to lose their tone and function.
  • In the later stages, breathing becomes difficult.
  • Final stages often involve partial or total paralysis, confining the patient to a wheelchair.

HOW DOES AUTOLOGOUS STEM CELL THERAPY HELP WITH MOTOR NEURON DISEASE?

Autologous Stem Cell Therapy has proven to be a beneficial, safe and effective treatment for Motor Neuron Disease and is being used extensively in India.
After treatment, a majority of patients have reported several improvements, including:

  • Corrected tongue movements
  • Clearer speech
  • Improved swallowing
  • Better control over excessive salivation
  • Improved balance
  • Easier gait
  • Improved fine motor skills
  • Most importantly, increased breathing capability

Meditourz reinforces these improvements by establishing the vital connection between leading doctors and patients. The world-renowned expert associated with Meditourz has already helped nearly 300 patients with Motor Neuron Disease receive effective treatment through Autologous Stem Cell Therapy in India, and we are proud to report that many of the patients have seen massive improvements in the quality of their lives.
