It seems like something out of a futuristic sci-fi movie – by using the stem cells of your own body, many illnesses or conditions can be treated - your injured tissues can be regenerated and your pain and discomfort relieved – naturally. But it’s not science fiction; it’s science fact and it’s here now.

According to John Roland, MD, a board-certified Family Medicine physician and a certified Stem Cell and Functional Medicine practitioner, stem cells serve as a kind of internal repair system in your body. They are taken from your own fat tissue and are relocated to another area of your body where there is disease or injury.

Because you are receiving your own cells, the chances of immune system rejection are virtually zero and the results can be long lasting. In his talk, “How to Help Your Body Heal Itself,” Dr. Roland will share with your members:

• What stem cells are and how they work to treat disease and injuries
• What is involved in harvesting, transplanting and banking their own stem cells
• What conditions and diseases can benefit from stem cell therapy
