Franchi: They are calling it "restorative medicine" out here and using it on just about any type of pain-inducing structural damage in the body. In my case, they drilled a hole in my hip and extracted bone-marrow (they then concentrate the adult stem-cells by centrifuging the marrow) to treat a spinal-stenosis induced (along with a bad fall) problem with my L3-L4 facet joints. Insurance won't cover it (of course!) so it's an out-of-pocket expense of $4 to 5K. CBD oil (a non-THC marijuana) was probably my next stop if this hadn't worked.
