Stem cells are best viewed as blank cells that can be molded and modified to repair different areas of the body. Most cells within the body serve a specific purpose and cannot transform or work to serve another purpose. This is where stem cells come in. It is important to understand that there are different types of stem cells and each one works in a specific manner to help alleviate pain or heal tissues in the body.
