Probably: If done correctly, stem cell therapy has few side effects. Make sure that you are dealing with a reputable office. Whether it's effective or not is another question!

No: Although stem cell therapy may help in the future with many disease the only current successful therapy is bone marrow transplantation for leukemia. Stem cells are an active area of research: see www.Clinicaltrials.Gov for reputable stem cell clinical trials. See http://stemcells.Nih.Gov/info/basics/basics7.Asp for more information.
