How CPI treats this with stem cells
CPI treats orthopedic and joint conditions, including shoulders, knees, and hips, using hypoxic mesenchymal stem cells, or MSCs. For a lot of people the appeal is simple: a chance to address a joint injury without going straight to surgery. CPI is a hospital licensed by COFEPRIS, Mexico’s federal health regulator, and it operates an ISO 9001 certified lab. A typical treatment visit is about 5 days in Tijuana. CPI reports that results commonly develop over 3 to 6 months, with continuing improvement up to 12 months. Individual results vary.
At the time of this episode, CPI was the official stem cell therapy provider of the UFC, which is part of why the clinic came up so often on the Joe Rogan Experience. Between that connection and a steady stream of guests sharing their results, CPI became the stem cell clinic most associated with the show.
