Yes: There is a variety of stem cell therapies done in the U.S. They include stem cells harvested from your own blood, bone marrow, and fat cells. There are also stem cells from bone marrow and afterbirth donors. These are used to provide therapies for arthritis and tendonitis. Embryonic stem cell therapies are not allowed in the U.S.
