Overview

Understanding Parkinson's disease

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological condition affecting movement, and increasingly recognized as affecting sleep, mood and cognition as well. It is managed by a neurologist, usually with medication that is adjusted over time.

Regenerative and cellular approaches to Parkinson’s disease are studied actively and discussed widely, which is why people ask us about them. It is worth being precise about the current position: no exosome product and no stem cell product is approved by the FDA for Parkinson’s disease, and the research that exists is early. Anyone telling you otherwise is ahead of the evidence.

What we do offer is a consultation with a licensed provider and a medical screening, across Southern California. The provider reviews your history, your current treatment and your goals, and tells you plainly whether anything we work with is appropriate for you. For many people the answer is no, and that is a legitimate outcome of the assessment.

Possibilities

Potential Benefits

A Parkinson's consultation may help you or the person you care for:

  • A structured review of the diagnosis, the current Parkinson's care, and the goals you bring
  • A clear account of what cell-based research has and has not established in Parkinson's disease
  • Screening for factors that may affect eligibility, including symptom stability and current medication
  • Questions worth discussing with your neurologist or movement disorder specialist
  • A realistic next step, which may be that nothing offered here is appropriate
Considerations

Who May Benefit

A Parkinson's assessment may make sense for people including:

  • People living with a confirmed Parkinson's diagnosis who remain under the care of a neurologist
  • Those interested in healthy aging and longevity medicine
  • Anyone with chronic fatigue or reduced physical resilience
  • People who prefer to be assessed at home rather than travel to a clinic
  • Family members seeking a clear account of what current research does and does not show

What the Research Looks At

Regenerative approaches to Parkinson's disease are an area of ongoing research, not an established treatment, and no exosome or stem cell product is FDA approved for this condition. These are the sources we point people to when they ask what is actually known today, including the FDA's own alert on this category of product.

  1. Parkinson's Disease: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatments National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, NIH
  2. Consumer Alert on Regenerative Medicine Products Including Stem Cells and Exosomes U.S. Food and Drug Administration
  3. Important Patient and Consumer Information About Regenerative Medicine Therapies U.S. Food and Drug Administration
  4. Registered clinical trials of cell-based approaches in Parkinson's disease ClinicalTrials.gov, U.S. National Library of Medicine

Terms you may hear when discussing Parkinson’s disease

Parkinson’s care has a vocabulary of its own, and your neurologist’s letters will use it. These are the terms a provider here will ask about and expect you to recognize.

  • Levodopa. The main medication for Parkinson’s disease. It is converted to dopamine in the brain, and its dose and timing are adjusted by your neurologist over the years. We do not change, pause or re-time it.
  • Motor and non-motor symptoms. Motor symptoms are the movement changes: tremor, stiffness, slowness and balance problems. Non-motor symptoms include sleep disturbance, constipation, mood changes, loss of smell and changes in thinking, and they are an increasingly recognized part of the condition.
  • “On” and “off” periods. Times when medication is working well and movement is easier, and times when it has worn off and symptoms return. The pattern matters to your neurologist and is worth noting before any appointment.
  • Deep brain stimulation. A surgical treatment in which implanted electrodes deliver electrical pulses to specific areas of the brain. It is offered to selected people by a specialist team, and having one is something to tell us at intake.

A licensed provider reviews your history, current treatment and goals before deciding whether anything here is appropriate to consider alongside your neurologist’s plan. Nothing offered is a treatment for Parkinson’s disease, and for many people the answer is no.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Nothing offered here is a cure, and no product we work with is FDA approved for Parkinson's disease. What we offer is a consultation, a medical screening and, where a licensed provider judges it appropriate, supportive care.
No. We do not manage Parkinson's disease and we do not change prescribed medication. Anything discussed here sits alongside the care your treating physician provides, and we would expect you to tell them about it.
You share intake information and complete a medical screening. A licensed provider then reviews your history, your current Parkinson's care, and your goals. Only after that review can the provider decide whether any next step is appropriate, and for many people the answer is that nothing we work with is suitable.
A licensed provider, during the consultation, based on your history and the screening. Not everyone is eligible, and being told no is a normal outcome of an honest assessment.
Yes, across Southern California. The consultation happens before any visit is scheduled.
Cost is discussed during the consultation, once a provider knows whether anything is appropriate for you at all. We do not quote a price before an assessment.
We do not change, pause or re-time any prescribed medication, including levodopa. Parkinson's medication schedules are set and adjusted by your neurologist, and timing matters. Bring your current medication list to the consultation so the provider can see it, and raise any interaction question with the physician who prescribes it.
It does not automatically rule anything in or out, but it is exactly the kind of thing the medical screening exists to catch. Tell us during intake, and expect the provider to want your neurosurgical and neurology records before discussing any next step. For many people the outcome of that review is that nothing we work with is suitable.
Neither, in the sense that word usually carries. We do not manage Parkinson's disease. Your neurologist manages the condition and its symptoms, motor and non-motor. A consultation here is about whether supportive care alongside that is appropriate for you, and the honest answer is often no.
Your current medication list, your most recent clinic letters or visit summaries, and any imaging or testing your neurologist has ordered. The provider reviews your history and your current Parkinson's care before deciding whether any next step is appropriate, and that review is only as good as the records in front of it.
