Current Alerts For This Business
On June 22, 2023, BBB Serving North Central Texas requested that the business substantiate, modify, or discontinue health claims advertised on its website. Some claims include:
- “People who might benefit from stem cell therapies include those with spinal cord injuries, type 1 diabetes, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, heart disease, stroke, burns, cancer and osteoarthritis.”
- “There is evidence – from studies of varying quality – that MSCs are safe and can improve pain and function in arthritic joints. Dr. Joshua Schacter, DO, FAAOS 802”
- “Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are gaining popularity for a variety of conditions, from sports injuries to hair loss. The treatment uses a patient's own blood cells to accelerate healing in a specific area.”
- “PRP treatment can help support wound healing in trauma and joint injury.”
- “Studies show that the increased concentration of growth factors in platelet-rich plasma may stimulate or speed up the healing process, shortening healing time for injuries, decreasing pain.”
- “Now, post-surgical PR injections have expanded to help heal muscles, tendons and ligaments, as procedures on these tissues have notoriously long recovery times.”
- “Early studies indicate that PRP injections may help treat osteoarthritis pain and stiffness by modulating the joint environment and reducing inflammation, but research is growing.”
The BBB Code of Advertising also states, “Claims relating to performance, energy savings, safety, efficacy or results for a product or service should be based on recent and competent testing or other objective data.”
The business initially replied that it would provide studies to support the noted claims. As of December 1, 2023, the business has failed to substantiate, modify, or discontinue the challenged claims.
