It has been brought to my attention that there has been some criticism to the video posted when I received stem cell treatment with Dr. Steenblock at the age sixteen. After I received the treatment, the stem cells helped almost immediately. I could feel my toes and was able to move them which I never could. It was truly an amazing experience to be able to move a part of my body that I was never able to move before. I was able to walk heel to toe for the first time in my life. My brain could tell my right hand to make a fist and it would. The stem cells were more active immediately after the treatment. Now, three years later I am nineteen years old and a sophomore in college. I have not done any sort of therapy for my right side, I can still make a fist and wiggle my toes but it is harder for me to do because I havent been constantly working with it. The best thing that came from this experience though was the relaxation in my right hand. Before I did this treatment with Dr. Steenblock, my hand was spastic and tense. It would physically hurt most of the time because it was so tight and it would jerk at random times. I was truly embarrassed by the jerking because it would bring attention to it. No sixteen year old girl wants to draw attention to something that makes her different. After my stem cell treatment, my hand relaxed immensely. This treatment is not a miracle cure but it has made a huge impact on my quality of life.

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurological disorder created by brain damage that primarily affects nerves and muscles that control body movement and function. The condition includes but is not limited to motor skill problems and other physical challenges resulting from a brain injury or abnormal brain development that takes place during fetal growth, at the time of birth, or within the first 2 or 3 years of a childs life. In some instances oxygen is cut off to the brain when the umbilical cord wraps around the childs neck prior to birth. Some children and adults with CP have seizures, convulsions and significant gait issues. Although cerebral palsy is permanent, the condition is not progressive like Lou Gehrigs disease or some forms of Multiple Sclerosis.CP can affect muscles one side of the body only or the entire body. Uncontrolled reflex movements and muscle tightness (spasticity) occur with varying degrees of severity. Virtually all cerebral palsy (CP) sufferers have problems with body movement and posture, although the degree of physical impairment varies. Some people with CP have only a slight limp or a problems walking. Others have little or no control over their arms and legs or other parts of their body, such as their mouths and tongues. People with severe forms of cerebral palsy are more likely to have other problems, such as seizures, convulsions or mental retardation.Babies born with severe CPmay have a floppy or (conversely) a very stiff body. Birth defects such as an irregularly shaped spine (scoliosis), an abnormally small jawbone or head (microcephaly) sometimes is seen.
Cerebral palsy (CP) is classified according to the type of body movement and posture problem:
CP-related or brain palsy spasticity refers to a tightening of affected muscles without the ability to fully relax them. Affected joints become stiff and thus difficult to move. Spasticity is associated with difficulty controlling movements in parts of the body, usually the arms and legs which can cause poor coordination and balance (spastic ataxia), as well as difficulty talking and eating.
There are four types of spastic CP, grouped according to how many limbs are affected.
Some children have symptoms of more than one type of cerebral palsy. For instance, some have spastic legs (symptomatic of spastic diplegic cerebral palsy) and problems with facial muscle control (symptomatic of dyskinetic cerebral palsy).
Whole body cerebral palsy affects the entire body to some degree. Complications and other medical problems are more likely to develop when the entire body is involved rather than isolated limbs or parts. Total body cerebral palsy may include any of the following:
CP is an acquired birth defect or acquired birth injury that arises when the brain fails to develop normally due to being deprived of blood (cerebral hypoxia), oxygen, or even some nutrients. In some cerebral palsy patients an infection or accident injures their brain. Although the exact cause usually is difficult to determine, brain injury related to being born prematurely often is involved.
The condition is difficult to diagnose because babies nervous systems grow and develop rapidly. Sometimes an infant will show cerebral palsy symptoms which turn out to be the result of an immature nervous system and are soon outgrown. In other children, the problems may be related to some other medical condition. An infant who has signs of motor skill problems may need evaluation over many months to a few years before a diagnosis can be made.
