Condition
Cerebral Palsy
A compassionate, physician-led evaluation offering families honest guidance about regenerative medicine and cerebral palsy — never a promise, only candor.
When you are exploring every option for your child
Caring for a child with cerebral palsy often means coordinating many therapies and searching for anything that might support their quality of life. It is natural to ask whether regenerative medicine has a role. We want to answer that question honestly rather than with promises we cannot keep.
Stem cell therapy is not a cure for cerebral palsy, and it is not an FDA-approved treatment for this condition. What we can offer is a candid, physician-led conversation about what is known, what is not, and whether anything might be considered for your family.
How we approach it
We begin with a physician evaluation — never a standardized program. Dr. Cimikoski takes time to understand your child’s history and your family’s goals, and to discuss whether a regenerative option such as IV stem cell therapy might be considered as one part of a broader support plan.
Whether it may be appropriate is an individual medical decision made by the physician. This is not a cure, is not FDA-approved for cerebral palsy, and outcomes are uncertain and vary. We also encourage families to continue every therapy and specialist relationship already in place. We also see families exploring options for other neurological conditions, such as autism.
Why families choose Utah Stem Cells
- Physician-led, every time. Your evaluation is with Dr. William Cimikoski, our Medical Director — not delegated to a technician.
- Honest and candid. If a regenerative option is not a good fit for your child, we will say so plainly.
- Part of a broader plan. We work alongside your existing care, never in place of it.
- No pressure. Our role is to inform, not to sell.
What to expect
Everything starts with the evaluation. There is no obligation. The physician will give you realistic, honest expectations — including the possibility that a regenerative option is not appropriate. We will not imply that improvement is expected or typical, because that would not be honest.
Important information

Frequently asked questions
Can stem cell therapy help cerebral palsy?
Stem cell therapy is not a cure for cerebral palsy and is not FDA-approved for this condition. Some families explore regenerative options as part of a broader care plan, but whether anything may be appropriate is an individual medical decision made by the physician. Outcomes are uncertain and vary, and we never imply that improvement is expected or typical.
Is stem cell therapy FDA-approved for cerebral palsy?
No. Stem cell therapy is not an FDA-approved treatment for cerebral palsy. We tell families this plainly so they can make informed decisions, and we encourage continuing the therapies and specialist care already in place.
Is my child a candidate?
Only the physician can answer that, and only after a careful, individualized evaluation. Sometimes the honest answer is that a regenerative option is not a good fit, and if so, we will tell you clearly.
Do you promise my child will improve?
No. We do not promise or imply improvement. Cerebral palsy is complex and outcomes are uncertain, so we offer honesty rather than hope beyond what the evidence supports.
Should we continue our current therapies?
Yes. We strongly encourage families to continue physical, occupational, and other specialist care. Any regenerative option would only ever be considered as one part of a broader plan, not a replacement for existing care.
