Specialised Stroke Clinic in Munich
Innovative Stroke Treatment
Regenerative Health Clinic in Munich.
A specialised day clinic in Munich offers an innovative, non-invasive, treatment for Stroke patients.
Stroke treatment is now available in a specialised regenerative medicine clinic in Munich through an innovative treatment approach called "Cord Blood Infusion Therapy".
"Cord Blood Infusion Therapy" enhances the regenerative activity of the brain cells in stroke patients.
The "Cord Blood Infusion Therapy" is performed by infusing cord blood cells intravenously into the patient. It is done as an out-patient treatment in a specialised clinic with no overnight hospital stay required.
The clinic is under the medical leadership of one of Germany's leading specialists in Regenerative Medicine. The head physician has more than 20 years of experience in evidence-based medicine and over 14 years clinical experience in haemotherapy including blood transfusions, as well as transplantation.
The leading physician is an international specialist in cancer, chronic degenerative diseases, and regenerative medicine with a doctoral thesis in neurological research, graded with “summa cum laude”.
The clinic comprises of regenerative medical specialists, nurses & associated medical staff on hand for the ultimate care of the patient.
The clinic has been designed to the highest standards with the patient as the focus of the clinic's management.
The standards of the clinic are exemplary and attention to detail is clearly visible throughout. One of the main focuses of the clinic's management is to provide the perfect atmosphere & ambiance for patients to undergo the Cord Blood Treatment.
The furnishings & colours used throughout help to provide the perfect, tranquil & relaxing environment for the patient and their family members.
Specialised Stroke Treatment Clinic
Every patient is allocated their own private room which is tastefully furnished with a comfortable bed for the patient to relax in during their treatment. The rooms are equipped with TVs with international channels and an extremely comfortable seating area for anyone accompanying the patient during their treatment.
The treatments are done on an outpatient basis so there is no need for an overnight stay at the clinic. Despite this the rooms are so comfortable that patients could easily stay for many days in the luxurious clinic, however it is much better for the patient's mentality to spend their evenings away from the clinic & in a nice hotel nearby so they do not feel like a "patient undergoing medical treatment".
Each patient is assigned their own personal "Medical Concierge" who is available throughout the whole process to help guide them through the process, while answering any questions along the way.
Specialities

Innovative Stroke Treatment - Non Invasive
The infusion of cord blood cells contains donated umbilical cord blood cells from 4 to 8 donors.
To maximize the effects, a dose of more than 50 million cord blood cells per kg of body is infused in each procedure, and the cord blood infusions are administered over the course of 2 to 3 days with each infusion taking about 3 hours per day.
During and after each infusion, patients are attended by doctors and medical staff for close monitoring.
Studies show that cord blood therapy is more effective when administrated soon after the stroke occurs. The sooner the cord blood treatment is applied in parallel with neurorehabilitation, the better the clinical outcome.
In the majority of patients, cord blood infusions have resulted in improvement of cognitive and motor functions. These functional gains become noticeable within the first few weeks after the infusion and continue for the next 3 to 6 months.
Cord Blood Therapy is not intended to be a replacement for standard therapy in the management of stroke patients, however it is an additional therapeutic approach that can provide further improvement in cognitive and motor functions.
The regenerative procedure involves the intravenous infusion of donated cord blood cells in an out-patient setting.
To maximize the therapeutic effects, a dose of greater than 50 million cord blood cells per kg of body weight from 4 to 8 donors is infused in each procedure, and the cord blood infusions are generally administered over the course of 2 to 3 days with each infusion session taking about 3 hours per day.
During and after each infusion, patients are attended by doctors and medical staff for close monitoring.
Results
Patients begin to notice improvements within a few weeks after the infusion. The cord blood cells are eliminated from the patient’s body within 6 to 8 weeks; however, patients experience functional gains over the next 3 to 6 months, with sustained functional improvement.
Achieved improvement is permanent; patients do not experience worsening of the achieved improvement.
Success Rates
Cord blood regenerative therapy results in an improvement both neurologically and functionally. The sooner the cord blood treatment is applied in parallel with neurorehabilitation, the better the clinical outcome as the synergy of cord blood regenerative chemistry and neurorehabilitation can boost neuroplasticity and post-stroke brain repair.
Recovery
Achieved improvement is permanent; patients do not experience worsening of the achieved improvement. Repeated cord blood infusions might lead to further functional benefits.
Length of stay needed in Munich
4 - 5 Days
Exprected after care
After completing the treatment and being back home, we recommend subsequent neurorehabilitation (physical therapy, occupational therapy, etc.) for at least 2 – 3 months. The synergy of cord blood regenerative chemistry and neurorehabilitation may boost neuroplasticity and post-stroke brain repair.
In addition, our doctors will be in contact with the patient over the next 6 months to monitor the effectiveness of the treatment.
Potential Side Effects
Adverse reactions to cord blood cell infusions are rare and generally mild.
There is a low rate of potential side effects, such as
- Constipation
- Diarrhea
- Pruritus
- Headache
- Hypertension
- Varied tastes
- Allergic reactions
Almost all of these reactions are only short-term and mostly related to DMSO (Dimethylsulfoxide), a cryoprotective agent that is dissolved rapidly in the patient’s body. Pre-medication including antihistamines before the cord blood treatment significantly reduces the frequency & intensity of these potential side effects.
