Parkinson’s disease is related to the movement of the body and it makes the muscles very rigid. It is a degenerative condition and also gets worse with time. As of today, there is no cure for the disease but modern technology definitely has some promises in the form of stem cell research. The disease mainly affects the central nervous system, and also affects the speech and motor skills of the person.

Usually Parkinson’s affects people who are older than 65 years of age. The symptoms are tremors and trembling of hands. These symptoms are controlled using various medications however after a few years the medications also stop working. A person with this disease has to be very careful with their diet and lifestyle. Some amount of physiotherapy can help to stabilize the condition and decrease the tremors and trembling in a person.

One of the treatments that are gaining popularity is the stem cell transplantation. The stem cells are taken from the bone marrow and are passed on the brain cells, so that the damaged cells in the brain can be replaced. This particular therapy is carried out by injecting the stem cells into the spine. This is a very delicate surgical process and is done carefully. A popular company dealing with stem cell research claims that their research based on patients with Parkinson’s shows that nearly 60 percent of the patients showed tremendous improvements after the stem cells were injected. Further improvements are being made to this therapy where the stem cells can be directly implanted into the brain.
