Cerebral Palsy (CP) remains one of the more frequently seen causes of childhood physical disability in Zimbabwe, often associated with birth asphyxia, prematurity, and limited access to timely obstetric intervention in rural districts. Specialist paediatric neurology and rehabilitation services are concentrated at Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals and a small number of private centres in Harare, leaving families in Matabeleland, Manicaland, and other provinces with few nearby options. Stem Cell Cure India supports Zimbabwean families exploring stem cell therapy as a complementary approach alongside physiotherapy and occupational therapy.
Zimbabwe's healthcare system channels most specialist paediatric neurology referrals through Harare, with Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals serving as the country's largest referral centre — but families travelling from Bulawayo, Mutare, and other regional centres often face long journeys, high transport costs, and extended waiting periods just to reach an initial assessment. Many Zimbabwean families now consider India for a combination of specialist neurology input, affordable regenerative treatment, and structured therapy support that remains difficult to access at home.

Dr. Goyal brings extensive experience across major hospitals including Medanta, Fortis Memorial Research Institute, and Apollo Delhi, with particular expertise in neuro-muscular and neuro-critical care conditions relevant to this treatment area
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs), most often sourced from umbilical cord tissue, are studied for their potential to reduce neuroinflammation and support neural repair in children with CP. Some children show improvements in muscle tone, motor coordination, and functional mobility following treatment, particularly alongside continued physiotherapy. Outcomes differ from child to child depending on the severity of CP, and stem cell therapy is not a cure.
Suitability depends on the specific condition and its stage. Before travelling, our team reviews:
No. Cerebral palsy is a lifelong condition, and stem cell therapy does not cure it. It is offered as a complementary option that may support motor function and reduce inflammation, used alongside — not instead of — ongoing physiotherapy and rehabilitation.
Children across a range of ages have received treatment, though many families choose to explore options earlier in development, when neuroplasticity tends to be higher. Our team reviews each child's case individually.
The procedure is minimally invasive and carried out under paediatric medical supervision, using ethically sourced, ICMR-compliant stem cells. Reported side effects are usually mild.
A recent neurological or developmental assessment, MRI/CT scans if available, and a summary of ongoing therapies. This lets our team give an initial opinion before you commit to travelling.
Most families stay around 5 to 10 days, depending on the treatment plan and whether further evaluation is needed.
Yes. Once treatment is confirmed, we provide the invitation letter and supporting documents Zimbabwean citizens need to apply for a Medical Visa.
