Average stem cell treatment hovers around $10k on upwards of $40k. With the explosion of clinics due them prices will drop quick.
but people also need to look at it like this.. The shit that they give us now for our illnesses is not a cure yet we pay through the roof for them, but with stem cells it will put an end to your illness. So even if it costs a little more for stem cell treatment it will most likely be a one time deal unlike the regular "medicine" that you have to keep taking for god knows how fucking long. In the long run you end up spending a lot more for so called "medicine" when you could have spent less to get rid of the shit for good.


Lets take something small like headaches. You can take tylenol, advil or whatever, but that's not a cure. All it does is numb your senses so you can't feel the pain and hopefully by the time the drugs wear off the headache will be gone. If not, you pop another pill and repeat the cycle.
