Stem Cell Treatment for Foot Neuropathy in Mexico | 25M MSC Injection
Dream Body Clinic’s Stem Cell Foot Neuropathy Treatment uses a targeted injection of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to address nerve pain, inflammation, and damage in the feet.
The protocol delivers 25 million MSCs via injection to the top of the foot, where the roots of the nerves are located. These cells seek out inflamed nerves and release neurotrophic factors (such as BDNF, NGF, and GDNF) that support nerve survival, reduce inflammation, and help guide regeneration. The treatment includes a full blood panel and is performed as a minimally invasive alternative to ongoing medication or more invasive options.
Patients typically stay in the Puerto Vallarta area (Bucerias, Nayarit, Mexico) for a minimum of four days. The all-inclusive package is $1,750 USD and is administered by experienced medical professionals in a certified facility. Most patients resume normal activities within a few weeks, with progressive improvements commonly reported over the following months (peak results often in the 3- to 6-month window).
This approach is suited for people with foot neuropathy (including diabetic neuropathy) who experience burning, tingling, numbness, or pain and want a regenerative option focused on the nerves. Results vary based on the severity and duration of the condition.
Our MSCs are derived from Wharton Jelly & placenta from live, healthy births in our COFEPRIS certified and ISO rated lab on site.

How do Mesenchymal Stem Cells Guide the Removal of Scar Tissue in an Injured Foot?
Production of enzymes and cytokines: MSCs produce enzymes and cytokines that can help to break down scar tissue and promote its removal. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of enzymes that can degrade extracellular matrix, the substance that makes up scar tissue. MSCs can produce MMPs, which can break down scar tissue and promote the growth of new tissue.
Guiding specific cell types: MSCs can guide many different cell types, depending on the microenvironment in which they are located. In the case of foot injuries, MSCs can guide fibroblasts and chondrocytes, which are the cells that make up ligament and cartilage tissue, respectively. When MSCs guide these cells, they can help to replace scar tissue with new, healthy tissue.
Modulation of the immune system: MSCs can modulate the immune system, which plays a key role in inflammation and tissue repair. When tissue is injured, the immune system responds by triggering an inflammatory response. However, if the inflammatory response is too severe or prolonged, it can lead to the formation of scar tissue. MSCs can help to modulate the immune response by reducing inflammation and promoting the growth of new tissue.
Promotion of angiogenesis: Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels are formed. Injured tissue requires a robust blood supply to promote healing and removal of scar tissue. MSCs can promote angiogenesis by secreting growth factors that stimulate the growth of new blood vessels. By promoting angiogenesis, MSCs can help to promote the removal of scar tissue by providing the injured tissue with the oxygen and nutrients it needs to repair itself.
How do Mesenchymal Stem Cells Regenerate Nerves in the Feet?
They do not directly turn into new nerve cells (neurons) in adults. Instead, they regenerate or protect nerves in the feet through several powerful indirect mechanisms:
Main Mechanisms of Nerve Regeneration with MSCs- BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor)
- NGF (nerve growth factor)
- GDNF (glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor)
- VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) → improves blood supply to nerves
- IGF-1, HGF, FGF-2, NT-3, and many others
- Immunomodulation and Anti-inflammatory Effects
Chronic inflammation and autoimmune attack on nerves (common in diabetic neuropathy) are suppressed by MSCs. They shift macrophages from pro-inflammatory (M1) to anti-inflammatory/healing (M2) phenotype and reduce toxic cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, etc.). - Extracellular Vesicles (Exosomes)
Even if the MSCs die or are cleared within days, the exosomes they release continue delivering microRNAs, proteins, and growth factors to damaged Schwann cells and axons for weeks → long-lasting effect with very few cells surviving. - Stimulation of Endogenous Repair
MSCs recruit the body’s own stem/progenitor cells (including Schwann cell precursors) to the injury site and enhance local angiogenesis, creating a better environment for natural nerve regeneration. - Very Limited Direct Differentiation
In peripheral nerve injuries, a tiny percentage of MSCs can differentiate into Schwann-like cells that help remyelinate axons, but this is minor compared to the paracrine effects.
How Long Do Results Last With The Stem Cell Foot Neuropathy Treatment?
Pre Treatment Care Protocol
Post Treatment Care Protocol
After treatment we advise patients to take 2 weeks off from exercise or sports. Then we recommend they follow the 4 week physical rehab protocol that we provide during treatment. This is a protocol of physiotherapy exercises developed by our orthopedic surgeon to help with a fast recovery. After the 6 weeks of rest and rehab we then recommend getting back to your favorite activities or exercise routine, but to take it light and listen to your body. If you go to the gym and you feel pain in your neck during treatment or the next day then it is best to take at least a week or more off of that exercise. It is best to listen to your body and let it heal so that your neck can be healed for good. Most patients see peak results from treatment 3 to 6 months post treatment.
We recommend that patients don’t start using any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), Prednisone, or anti-inflammatory supplements such as gingko biloba or turmeric for at least 2 weeks post treatment and preferably for 6 weeks post treatment.
We recommend that patients don’t have any corticoid steroid injections such as a cortisone shot for at least 3 months post treatment and preferably for at least 6 months as MSC Treatments typically see peak results 3 to 6 months post treatment.
How to Book a Foot Stem Cell Treatment at Dream Body Clinic
Side Effects or Risks
- A small number of patients have experienced tightness and soreness in the joint the night after treatment or the following day. This is easily treated with the tramacet we provide every patient.
- A very small percentage of patients for this treatment will be non-responders. As with any medication or treatment there is always a chance of no change. Tylenol does not always fix a headache as an example.
- This treatment consists of an injection and as with any injections there is a very small risk of infection. We use iodine and microdacyn to minimize the chance of infection and so far we have never had a patient get an infection.
- We do not treat patients that have had cancer within the past 5 years. There is still no conclusive evidence linking stem cells to make cancer worse, but we prefer to stay on the side of safety until more information is available.
Fortunately the stem cell foot treatment is extremely safe. The only documented side effects are the following:
Our lab has over 8 years of experience cultivating mesenchymal stem cells with perfect safety and efficacy. See Stem Cell Certification by Clicking Here.
The mesenchymal stem cells that are administered via intra-articular injection will stay in the system for 8 months to a year. During that time they will interact with immune cells and seek out inflammation where they will guide cellular regeneration. After 8 to 12 months any MSCs that are free bound in your system will differentiate into an osteoblast (bone cell), adipocyte (fat cell) or chondrocyte (cartilage cell). They will then contain the donor’s HLA markers and your immune system will destroy and remove them. This is an easy process for your immune system and there is no negative reaction in your body from it.

9 Things to Know Before Getting Stem Cell Foot Neuropathy Treatment in Mexico
Burning, tingling, numbness or pain in the feet can disrupt sleep, walking and daily life. If you are weighing a regenerative option that focuses on the nerves, here are nine things to know before you book stem cell foot neuropathy treatment at Dream Body Clinic in Bucerías, near Puerto Vallarta.
1. The protocol is 25 million stem cells injected at the top of the foot
The treatment is an injection of 25 million mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) at the top of the foot, where the roots of the nerves are located. The clinic describes the cells as seeking out inflamed nerves and releasing neurotrophic factors (such as BDNF, NGF and GDNF) that aim to support nerve survival, calm inflammation and help guide repair.
2. The cells work by signaling, not by becoming new nerves
The page is clear on this point: MSCs do not turn directly into new nerve cells in adults. They work mainly through the signals they release, plus effects on inflammation and blood supply to the nerves. That is why results are described as supportive and gradual, and why they vary from person to person.
3. The cells are made in the clinic’s own lab
The MSCs come from Wharton’s jelly and placenta from live, healthy births. They are processed in Dream Body Clinic’s on-site, COFEPRIS-certified and ISO-rated laboratory, which the clinic says has more than 8 years of experience cultivating MSCs.
4. There is one published price, with bloodwork included
The all-inclusive package is $1,750 USD. It includes the 25 million cell injection and a full blood panel, administered by medical professionals in a certified facility.
5. It is used for foot neuropathy
The page describes it for people with foot neuropathy, including diabetic neuropathy, who have burning, tingling, numbness or pain and want a regenerative option focused on the nerves, as an alternative to ongoing medication or more invasive options. Results vary with the severity and duration of the condition.
6. It is not right for everyone
Candidacy is reviewed from your medical history and blood panel. The clinic does not treat anyone who has had cancer in the past 5 years, as a precaution. A very small percentage of patients are non-responders, and the clinic says this can happen with any treatment. The page also notes that this is a clinic protocol, not an FDA-approved U.S. indication, and the clinic does not promote it as a cure.
7. Plan for at least four days in town
This is the shortest stay of the joint and nerve treatments. A typical schedule: Day 1 arrive and rest, Day 2 bloodwork and payment, Day 3 treatment, Day 4 fly home. Unlike the joint treatments, there is no MRI step.
8. Recovery is gradual
Some tightness or soreness the night after treatment or the next day is the most commonly reported side effect. The clinic advises two weeks off exercise or sports, then a 4-week physical rehab protocol it provides, and a light return to activity after about 6 weeks. Improvements are commonly reported over the following months, with peak results often in the 3 to 6 month window. As with any injection, there is a very small risk of infection. The clinic uses iodine and microdacyn to reduce it.
9. Preparation matters
- Stop NSAIDs at least 1 week before treatment and for at least 2 weeks after (preferably 6 weeks).
- Avoid cortisone or corticosteroid injections for 3 months before treatment, and for at least 3 months after (preferably 6).
- Stop prednisone at least 1 week before and 2 weeks after.
- Avoid anti-inflammatory supplements such as ginkgo biloba or turmeric for at least 2 weeks after.
The clinic says these drugs interfere with how MSCs respond to inflammation. Always check with your own doctor before stopping any prescribed medication, especially if you manage diabetes.
