Former President and now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo will undergo stem cell therapy on Monday with an alternative medicine doctor. <\/p>\n
Arroyo, in a post on her Twitter account Saturday morning, said Monday's session will be her fourth intravenous treatment. <\/p>\n
\"This Monday I will have my fourth stem cell intravenous treatment with my alternative medicine doctor,\" she said. <\/p>\n
Also she said, \"It's cultured stem cell and much more modest in price than the one coming from sheep or one's own body.\" <\/p>\n
But she did not elaborate on how much the treatment will cost. <\/p>\n
Stem cell therapy is type of intervention strategy that introduces new adult stem cells into damaged tissue in order to treat disease or injury. <\/p>\n
Earlier this week, Arroyo said she continues to search for alternative solutions to an anatomic problem that prompted her to be rushed to a government hospital last month. <\/p>\n
Arroyo said she had seen at least two \"alternative medicine practitioners,\" and has initiated communication with a \"neurocervical spine purist.\" <\/p>\n
She said she also had her thrice-weekly therapy at the Veterans Memorial Medical Center (VMMC) in Quezon City Thursday. <\/p>\n
Arroyo underwent treatment last August for an anatomic problem that caused her to choke on her food. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
