Jack recently was suffering from debilitating back pain due to facet joint arthritis. He described the pain as nine out of ten on the pain scale. He had tried cortisone injections and back surgery but the pain persisted. He travelled to Germany in 2016 to pursue stem cell injections. These stem cells were obtained from his abdominal fat by liposuction. This tissue was processed and then injected into multiple joints in his lower back and neck. He did not feel immediate relief but the pain began to subside after a few months.

This type of medicine is called regenerative medicine, as it attempts to restore function and minimize pain using the body's natural healing ability.
