Additional information
IMPORTANT NOTICE
This is an example treatment plan provided to give you an initial idea of the possible treatment protocol and estimated cost.
The example below is based on a patient weighing approximately 70 kg. Our clinic’s general dosing protocol is approximately 1–2 million stem cells per kilogram of body weight.
The final dosage, treatment schedule, and price will be confirmed after our medical team reviews the patient’s body weight, medical history, laboratory results, spinal cord injury level, neurological condition, and current treatment.
After reviewing this offer, if you remain interested in treatment, please send the information requested below. Our medical team will prepare a free personalized treatment plan for you.
--------------------
Estimated treatment cost:
Option 1 – 70 million UC-MSCs
Estimated price: THB 473,000
Approximately USD 14,100
Option 2 – 140 million UC-MSCs
Estimated price: THB 740,000
Approximately USD 22,100
Option 3 – 90 million UC-MSCs (IV + IT)
• UC-MSCs: 70 million cells (Intravenous Injection)
• UC-MSCs: 20 million cells (Intrathecal Injection)
Estimated price: THB 665,000
Approximately USD 20,200
IV infusion allows the cells and their supportive signals to circulate throughout the body, aiming to support systemic inflammatory balance and vascular health.
IT injection is performed under medical supervision and delivers the cells closer to the central nervous system, aiming to provide additional support for the spinal cord and surrounding neurological environment.
The USD amounts are approximate and may change according to the exchange rate. The final price will depend on the required stem cell dosage and any additional services recommended by the doctor.
--------------------
Estimated treatment plan may include:
• UC-MSCs: 70 million or 140 million cells (Intravenous Injection)
• hTSC Exosomes: 20 billion particles (Intravenous Injection)
• Doctor consultation

• Blood test result consultation
• NAD+ (Intravenous Injection)
• Vega Signature Vitamins Drip (Intravenous Injection)

The final combination of treatments will be adjusted according to the patient’s medical assessment and suitability.
--------------------
How stem cell therapy may support recovery after Spinal Cord Stroke:
• Support for the spinal cord environment: UC-MSCs release bioactive factors that may support cellular communication and the biological environment surrounding the affected spinal cord tissue.
• Support for neuroinflammatory regulation: The anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of UC-MSCs may help support a more balanced inflammatory environment within the nervous system.
• Support for nerve and vascular health: UC-MSC-derived growth factors may support nerve-cell health, microcirculation, and oxygen and nutrient delivery to affected tissues.
• Support for movement and sensation: Some patients may report changes in strength, muscle control, sensation, balance, walking, or coordination over time.
• Support for daily function: Treatment may provide additional support for mobility, endurance, bladder or bowel function, and participation in rehabilitation, depending on the level and severity of the injury.
If changes occur, they may develop gradually and may be monitored over approximately 3–6 months. Recovery potential varies according to the location and severity of the spinal cord damage, time since the stroke, rehabilitation, and overall health.
Stem cell therapy supports the nervous system’s natural regulatory and recovery processes rather than producing immediate medication-like effects. The response and timeframe vary from person to person.
--------------------
Information required for a personalized treatment plan:
• Current body weight
• Drug allergies
• Previous or current treatments
• Cancer history
• Date and cause of the spinal cord stroke
• Current mobility, sensation, and level of independence
• Current bladder, bowel, and breathing condition
• Current medications, including blood-thinning medication
• Spinal MRI, hospital discharge summary, or medical report
--------------------
Stem cell therapy for Spinal Cord Stroke is an alternative and supportive treatment. It is not a cure and cannot replace prescribed medication, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, mobility support, bladder or bowel care, or regular neurological and rehabilitation care.
The treatment does not guarantee restoration of movement, sensation, bladder or bowel function, or independence. Patients should continue their existing treatment unless their treating doctor advises otherwise.
Treatment responses vary from person to person, and no specific result can be guaranteed.
