George Kittle at Stem Cell Institute

Professional football players often push their bodies to the limit, enduring a multitude of injuries and chronic pain over the course of their careers. George Kittle, a talented player in the prime of his life at 29, has taken significant steps to prioritize his health and minimize the impact of football-related injuries on his performance.

Kittle has experienced multiple football-related injuries in his career. Double Achilles tendinosis, other injuries, and playing through pain took a toll on Kittle’s physical ability. He knew he needed to find a way for his body to recover and stay in peak shape. Kittle searched for new ways to replenish his body so he could be back at 100%. This is the story of how George Kittle found hope and healing when he received stem cell therapy at Stem Cell Institute Panama.

Football is an intense and physically demanding sport, with players facing the risk of injuries on a regular basis. For Kittle, these injuries had begun to accumulate, making it increasingly difficult for him to perform at his peak. Playing through the pain had become a common occurrence, and his Achilles injuries specifically had him placed on the injured reserve list for three games.

As Kittle stated, “[Injuries are] painful and they all kind of stack up on top of each other. Once you get so many, there’s only so much you can tolerate.”

In search of relief and a way to rejuvenate his body in between seasons, Kittle turned to stem cell therapy. Stem Cell Institute Panama offered a revolutionary approach to healing using specially selected human umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUCT-MSCs) known as Golden Cells™.

“I always try to get stem cells right after the season because that’s where my body is at its most broken down,” says Kittle. “So by the time the season starts in August, I’m at my best, I’m at my fastest, I’m at my strongest.”

Stem cell therapy for sports injuries offers a promising solution for professional athletes like George Kittle, amateur athletes, and weekend warriors who are seeking to enhance their recovery and performance. Depending on the exact nature of your injury, stem cell therapy may help you heal faster and potentially avoid invasive surgery. This novel approach has gained popularity among athletes looking to get back in the game quickly.

The Golden Cells™ we use are known for:

  • Promoting healing

These are important factors for healing many types of sports injuries, including Achilles tendonitis, sprains and strains, ACL/MCL tears, rotator cuff tears, tennis elbow, and runner’s knee. 

While stem cell therapy is not a magic cure, Kittle’s experience showcases its potential benefits for professional athletes. Over time, the therapy helped him find hope and healing, enabling him to return to the field stronger and more resilient than before. It even inspired some of his teammates to try stem cell therapy for themselves.

“Ever since I’ve been coming down here, I think we’ve gotten 6 to 10 of my other teammates that have flown down because they’ve seen my results and are like wow, you know, I want to feel that good,” said Kittle.
