Life-Changing Results with Stem Cell Therapy

Updated: Aug 18

Used in over 10,000 therapies to date, Celltex-produced Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have changed the lives of people around the world, all with varying conditions and medical needs.


McKenna Petersen is one of these clients, who at age 15 was diagnosed with dysautonomia, a disorder that disrupts the autonomic nervous system. For years she struggled with seizures, fatigue, digestion issues, and many other symptoms that interrupted her life. She eventually found Celltex and saw life-changing results following stem cell therapy.


In this webinar, McKenna shares her incredible story and provides updates on how she is feeling today. Celltex Chief Medical Officer Dr. Stanley Jones, who played a key role in McKenna’s recovery, also joins to provide a medical perspective on the properties of MSCs that are promising for a range of clinical applications.

ABOUT THE GUESTS:


McKenna Petersen

Celltex Client, Dysautonomia & Ehlers-Danlos syndrome


McKenna Petersen is a Celltex client with dysautonomia and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS).


Dysautonomia is a disorder that disrupts the autonomic nervous system, causing a range of symptoms like fatigue, nausea, indigestion, and insomnia. EDS is a rare group of conditions that may cause overly flexible joints and frequent dislocations, among other symptoms.


When McKenna was in the 7th grade her health began to decline. Over several years, she experienced frequent seizures, extreme fatigue, digestion issues, and even a ruptured kidney. At age 15 McKenna was diagnosed with dysautonomia and eventually Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) as well.


McKenna’s health complications arrived at a time when she was supposed to be gaining a sense of independence. Instead, she was in and out of the hospital and feared she’d never be able to attend college. Then she found Celltex.


Although it took some time for her to notice results after her first round of stem cell therapy, McKenna eventually saw incredible improvements. She had significantly more energy, could finally digest her food normally, and experienced seizures less frequently.


Tune in to this webinar to hear more about McKenna’s story, as she provides updates on how she’s feeling today.



Stanley C. Jones, MD

Chief Medical Officer, Celltex Therapeutics


Dr. Stanley Jones serves as the Celltex Chief Medical Officer and a board-certified orthopedic spine surgeon. After suffering from a sudden onset of psoriatic arthritis, which prevented him from performing surgeries at full capacity, Jones traveled to South Korea to receive the treatment of his own stem cells. This treatment allowed him to return to a normal surgery schedule and enjoy life pain-free. Dr. Jones was soon motivated to help bring stem cell technology to the state of Texas, so that more individuals could experience the quality of life improvements that he saw. Through these efforts, he has gained extensive knowledge on the clinical applications of stem cells.


Dr. Jones received a B.A. in chemistry from Texas Tech University and an M.D. from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School. He completed an internship at the University of Utah and an orthopedic residency at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston. He then served in the U.S. Army as a Captain in the Medical Corps.
