How Stem Cell Therapy May Help

Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are being studied for their potential to support surviving motor neurons, reduce neuroinflammation, and potentially help slow the progression of symptoms in some patients. This is an active area of research rather than an established cure — MND currently has no cure in conventional medicine, and stem cell therapy is explored as a complementary option to discuss with your treating neurologist.

Is This Treatment Right for You?

Suitability depends on the stage and pattern of MND. Before travelling, our team reviews:

• Neurological assessment and EMG/NCS results, if available
• Current symptoms — mobility, speech, swallowing, and breathing function
• Rate of disease progression and time since diagnosis
• Any current medication (e.g. Riluzole) and therapy support

Travelling from Tanzania — What to Expect

• Flights: Direct and one-stop flights are available from Nairobi (NBO) to New Delhi (DEL), typically 7–9 hours depending on route and layover
• Visa: Tanzanian citizens require a Medical Visa for India, arranged through the Indian High Commission in Dar es Salaam. Our team assists with the invitation letter and required documentation.
• Cost guidance: Treatment packages are quoted in USD; approximate Tanzanian Shilling (TZS) equivalents are provided on request, and are typically a fraction of costs abroad
• Stay duration: Most patients stay in Delhi for 7–14 days, depending on diagnostic requirements and the treatment plan, with follow-up blood work arranged before discharge.
• Language: All consultations and medical reports are provided in English.

What Your Visit Includes

• Remote pre-screening based on neurological reports shared in advance

• Diagnostic work-up to confirm disease stage and suitability
• Stem cell therapy administered under medical supervision
• A written follow-up plan your doctor in Tanzania can continue monitoring
• Airport pickup, accommodation assistance, and a dedicated patient coordinator throughout your stay

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a cure for MND?

No, there is currently no cure for Motor Neuron Disease in conventional medicine. Stem cell therapy is explored as a complementary option that may help support quality of life and slow certain aspects of progression in some patients — it is not presented as a cure.

Can patients with advanced MND (breathing/swallowing difficulty) still travel?

This depends on the individual's current respiratory and swallowing function. Please share detailed recent medical reports so our team can advise honestly on whether travel and treatment are appropriate for your specific stage of disease.

What reports should I send before travelling?

Recent neurological assessment, EMG/NCS results if available, and details of current symptoms and medication. This allows our team to give an honest initial opinion before you commit to travel.

How long will I need to stay in Delhi?

Most patients stay between 7 and 10 days, depending on the treatment plan and any additional evaluation required.

Do you assist with the Indian medical visa process?

Yes. Once treatment is confirmed, we provide the invitation and supporting documents Tanzanian citizens need to apply for a Medical Visa through the Indian High Commission in Dar es Salaam.

What is the approximate cost?

Cost depends on the treatment plan required. Contact us for a personalised quote after sharing your neurological reports and medical history.
