Lyme disease is an infectious pathology that can affect many internal organs, structures of the nervous system and musculoskeletal system. The disease is not always diagnosed timely, resulting in persistent symptoms that do not regress even after the pathogen has been destroyed by antibiotics. Recovery from Lyme disease can take years, but the process is much quicker and the complications are reduced if you receive cell therapy.

What problems occur with Lyme disease
Lyme disease or tick-borreliosis is an infectious disease transmitted by ticks. The pathology is common in moderate climates of the Northern Hemisphere. This pathology is successfully treated with antibiotics, but the problem is that spirochetes can cause neuroborreliosis: damage to the peripheral and central nervous system, resulting in neurological symptoms that sometimes persist even after successful antibiotic therapy.
The main neurological manifestations of Lyme disease:
- Cranial neuritis
- Polyneuropathy
- Neuropathies of separate nerves causing pain, numbness, and motor disorders
- Memory and attention impairment (Lyme encephalopathy)
Other organs may also be damaged in Lyme disease: the heart (Lyme carditis), joints (Lyme arthritis, including post-antibiotic Lyme arthritis developing in 23% of patients), skin (rash, cyanosis or pallor due to impaired blood supply to the extremities).
In 10-20% of patients, even without signs of damage to internal organs, chronic fatigue, skeletal-muscular pain, deterioration of cognitive functions develop after cure of borreliosis, and these changes may persist for years, although they regress fully or partially over time.
How stem cells help repair your body
Stem cells (SCs) are used to treat patients who have already completed a course of antibiotic therapy but are experiencing residual symptoms from the nervous system, joints, and heart, or suffering from fatigue. You can just wait, and with a high probability these symptoms will begin to diminish in 6-12 months, and perhaps they will completely disappear in a few years. But you can get rid of borreliosis complications much faster by using cell therapy. In addition, the use of SCs reduces the risk of irreversible neurological disorders that reduce the quality of life.
SCs are undifferentiated cells that are responsible for tissue regeneration. They can transform into specialized cells when exposed to a suitable microenvironment and also secrete growth factors that enhance regenerative processes.
The source of SCs is usually the patient's tissues and body fluids; they are most often obtained from blood or bone marrow. The cells are then injected intravenously. Their peculiarity is that SCs themselves migrate to the areas of damage, find diseased organs, accumulate in these areas and gradually restore them. Just 1-2 infusions of stem cells allow to start regenerative processes that will continue for several months.
