Stem Cell Therapy for Alzheimer’s Support in Seoul
Nanoori Stem Cell Center, Gangnam
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) changes memory, attention, movement confidence, and daily life—affecting patients and families alike. You may see headlines about stem cells for Alzheimer’s. At Nanoori Stem Cell Center, our core specialty is orthopedic regenerative care (joints, tendons, ligaments, selected spine). For Alzheimer’s disease, cell therapy is investigational and not a routine service. We focus on safe, hospital-based coordination with neurology and on improving the musculoskeletal function, pain, and mobility that support quality of life.
Straight talk: We do not offer unregulated “IV stem cell” drips or non-standard brain/spinal injections. Any Alzheimer’s-focused cell therapy must occur only within approved clinical protocols led by neurology.
Who This Is For
- People living with mild to moderate cognitive change seeking coordinated, guideline-first care
- Patients whose joint/back pain, falls, or deconditioning limit activity, sleep, or caregiver routines
- International visitors wanting hospital-standard coordination in Gangnam with realistic goals
What We Do (Nanoori-Led, Case-By-Case)
- Ortho & Spine Optimization: Treat painful joints/tendons/back issues that reduce activity and sleep
- Mobility & Balance Support: Gait training, fall-prevention drills, strength for transfers and walking confidence
- Neurology Coordination: Rapid referral for diagnosis/staging, medication review, dementia-care planning, and clinical-trial navigation when appropriate
- Caregiver-Friendly Playbook: Daily movement, sleep cues, hydration/nutrition basics, home safety, pacing strategies
Note: Our autologous cell procedures are for orthopedic indications only—not for brain repair.
Where “Stem Cells” Fit (Current Reality)
- Alzheimer’s-directed cell therapies remain research-only. If you may qualify, we help you discuss trial options with neurology teams. We do not run Alzheimer’s trials ourselves.
Your Coordinated Pathway
- Screening & Baseline – Cognitive history, meds, fall risk, mobility and pain map; bring prior neuro notes if available.
- Neurology Alignment – Confirm diagnosis/stage; optimize meds and care plan; discuss research eligibility when suitable.
- Ortho & Rehab Plan – Address pain generators; start graded strength, balance, and gait program; footwear/insoles if helpful.
- Follow-Up & Home Support – Track steps, falls, sleep, pain; caregiver checklists; travel-friendly instructions for visitors.
Expected Timeline (Typical)
- Weeks 1–4: Calmer musculoskeletal pain; safer transfers; steadier daily routine
- Weeks 4–12: Improved endurance and balance; fewer activity-related setbacks
- Months 3–6: More durable mobility and caregiver confidence with consistent routines
Outcomes depend on disease stage, medical plan, musculoskeletal status, and adherence.
Safety & Considerations
- Hospital standards with doctor-supervised workflows
- Temporary soreness/bruising can occur after orthopedic procedures
- Emergency red flags: sudden confusion change, chest pain, new neurologic deficits, fever with rigidity, or severe falls → urgent care
- Any Alzheimer’s-focused cell therapy must be specialist-led within regulated trials—not a walk-in service
FAQ
Can stem cells cure Alzheimer’s now?
No established clinical cure exists. Best outcomes come from
neurology-guided care, safety planning, and building strength/balance so daily life remains active and supported.
Do you inject stem cells into the brain or spine?
No. We do not perform unregulated neuro procedures or IV “stem cell” drips.
Can we start during a short visit to Seoul?
Yes. We can align neurology care, initiate a mobility/fall-prevention plan, and provide a travel-friendly roadmap for caregivers.
