When it comes to pushing physical limits, few understand this better than Cuban actor Pedro Moreno. As a martial artist, competitive athlete, and actor known for his roles in Spanish television and movies, Pedro’s body has faced significant wear and tear over the years. Yet, after battling through several severe knee injuries, including two ACL tears, infections, and septic arthritis, Pedro’s road to recovery seemed far from certain—until he discovered stem cell therapy at the Cellular Performance Institute (CPI) in Tijuana, Mexico.
A Life in Pain and the Search for a Solution
Pedro’s athletic career, involving karate, Taekwondo, Jiu-Jitsu, and even extreme sports competitions, took a toll on his body. Over the years, his knees suffered the most damage. After tearing his ACL twice and competing in Jiu-Jitsu without an ACL, his situation worsened when a hospital infection left him septic and wheelchair-bound for months. Despite extensive therapy and medical interventions, Pedro struggled to regain mobility and faced the grim prospect of a knee replacement.
“I spent nearly a year without walking,” Pedro recalls. “Every doctor said I was a great candidate for knee replacement, but I wasn’t ready to give up. That’s when I heard Joe Rogan talking about stem cells in Tijuana, and I thought maybe there’s another way.”
Discovering Hope at CPI Stem Cells
Pedro’s journey led him to CPI Stem Cells in Tijuana, where cutting-edge treatments and a personalized approach to patient care offered him new hope. Despite being told that his knee was in bad shape, Pedro decided to give stem cell therapy a chance—and the results were nothing short of life-changing.
“After a year and a half of not walking, I came to CPI and now I’m walking. I feel so much better,” he shares. “It’s not just my knee that’s healing. I lost a toenail years ago, and after the stem cell treatment, it started growing back. I didn’t expect that, but it’s proof that something amazing is happening in my body.”
The unexpected benefits of stem cell therapy demonstrated the incredible potential for cellular regeneration beyond Pedro’s knee. His story is a testament to the broader impact that stem cells can have, even when patients come in for specific treatments.
A Bright Future and a Renewed Life
Today, Pedro is back on his feet and continuing to work in television, with his latest project being the movie July 7, based on the assassination of the president of Haiti. Though he still takes things step by step, the progress he has made through stem cell therapy has given him a renewed outlook on life and his career.
“I’m patient, and I’m seeing results. My muscles are getting stronger, and I’m starting to recover. It’s beautiful to see the progress happening,” Pedro says. He’s now able to participate in activities he once had to put on hold, and he’s looking forward to fully resuming his athletic lifestyle, whether it’s practicing Jiu-Jitsu or competing in new challenges.
The Future of Stem Cell Therapy
Pedro’s story is one of many success stories coming out of CPI Stem Cells in Tijuana. As the official stem cell provider for the UFC, CPI is leading the way in regenerative medicine, offering treatments that go beyond traditional medical options like surgery and medication. With innovative therapies targeting joint issues, autoimmune conditions, and even unexpected outcomes like Pedro’s toenail regrowth, CPI is giving patients a second chance at a pain-free, active life.
