CPI Stem Cells Podcast Episode 7: In this episode of the CPI podcast, Felicia Oh, a pioneering Jiu Jitsu athlete, shares her journey through the sport, the impact of stem cell therapy at CPI on her health, and how it has helped her maintain an active lifestyle. She reflects on her experiences with renowned figures like Eddie Bravo and Joe Rogan, and emphasizes the importance of innovative treatments like stem cells in overcoming injuries and sustaining long-term wellness.
From Accidental Discovery to Jiu Jitsu Pioneer
Felicia’s foray into Jiu Jitsu began unexpectedly at age 33. With no prior interest in combat sports, a chance class led her to discover a natural talent, and within months, she was competing. Over the years, she trained under the legendary Jean-Jacques Machado, learning alongside icons like Eddie Bravo and Joe Rogan. As a result, she became a pioneer in the sport, competing at the highest levels, including the ADCC World Championships and the USA Grappling World Team.
Reflecting on the early days of Jiu Jitsu, Felicia recalls Eddie Bravo’s role in developing the nogi system that would revolutionize the sport. “Eddie really started the whole nogi movement,” she notes, praising his foresight and the eventual global popularity of the system. Today, both gi and nogi Jiu Jitsu are thriving, thanks to pioneers like Bravo who dared to challenge the status quo.
Joe Rogan’s Influence and the Rise of Stem Cells
Joe Rogan’s influence on the world of Jiu Jitsu is well-known, but his interest in health and wellness has also made a significant impact. Felicia fondly remembers Joe being one of the first to talk about stem cells, years before they became widely known. His forward-thinking approach to health led him to advocate for regenerative treatments, a path that Felicia herself would follow decades later.
Fast forward 20 years, and Felicia is now an active participant in stem cell therapy at CPI. She jokes about how she once laughed at Joe’s idea of “stem cells in all my joints,” but today, she embraces the technology that allows her to maintain her health and mobility. For Felicia, stem cell therapy isn’t just about healing—it’s about extending her ability to move freely and continue doing what she loves.
The Role of CPI in Felicia’s Health Journey
CPI has become a critical part of Felicia’s health and wellness journey. Over the years, she has returned for multiple treatments, using stem cell therapy to address various injuries and maintain her overall well-being. From her back to her shoulders, the regenerative power of stem cells has allowed Felicia to avoid invasive surgeries, shorten recovery times, and continue living an active lifestyle.
At CPI, stem cell therapy offers a non-invasive alternative to traditional surgery. The focus is on healing and regenerating damaged tissue without the trauma and long recovery periods associated with surgical procedures. “When you get stem cells, it’s an investment in your health and future,” Felicia explains. “Even with the recovery period, you can still function in your daily life. You’re not being cut open and stitched up.”
The treatments at CPI are not limited to athletes. They are designed for anyone looking to improve their quality of life, whether it’s a grandparent wanting to stay active with their grandchildren or someone recovering from injury. The power of stem cells lies in their ability to regenerate tissue, reduce inflammation, and provide long-lasting relief from pain, allowing people to maintain an active lifestyle without the need for surgery.
A New Era in Injury Recovery with Stem Cells
Felicia views stem cell therapy as the next step in the evolution of injury treatment. Reflecting on how devastating knee injuries once ended athletes’ careers, she recognizes the game-changing potential of stem cells in enabling people to continue their athletic pursuits. “Back in the day, a knee injury could be career-ending. But with stem cells, we can now recover and keep going—it’s a whole new level of recovery.”
The key, as Felicia points out, is maintaining your body after treatment. “Stem cells work as long as you take care of your body. If you get treated and then go back to running marathons without proper care, you’ll wear your body down again. It’s not the stem cell’s fault—it’s about how you take care of yourself.”
A Future of Healing and Optimized Health at CPI
Felicia’s story is one of innovation, resilience, and embracing the future of health care. As someone who has continuously pushed the boundaries in both competitive sports and personal wellness, she understands the importance of investing in long-term health. Stem cell therapy at CPI has allowed her to remain active, mobile, and engaged in the things she loves, well into her later years.
CPI’s approach to health care is rooted in providing patients with advanced, non-invasive treatments that improve quality of life. Their use of stem cells helps patients avoid surgeries, reduce pain, and recover faster, offering a brighter, more active future. Felicia’s experience is a testament to what is possible with the right combination of innovation and commitment.
For those considering stem cell therapy, Felicia’s advice is simple: “Try this before you opt for surgery. Surgery is invasive, requires long recovery, and can leave lasting damage. With stem cells, you have a chance to heal naturally and continue living the life you want.”
The Impact of Stem Cell Therapy at CPI
CPI has positioned itself as a leader in the field of regenerative medicine, offering treatments that are helping people worldwide recover from injuries and maintain their health. Felicia’s ongoing journey with stem cell therapy highlights the potential of these treatments not just for athletes but for anyone looking to improve their quality of life.
